if you've ever seen someone on the street that just looks like they browse the internet often then chances are you've thought to yourself "hey, maybe i should talk to them?", but didn't because you were shy. i feel like this is the one true thing keeping us (as in people who frequent the internet) from being an actual community: approachability. i try to go out of my way to be as approachable as possible if i spot someone who MIGHT be "like" me, just on the off chance that they'll talk to me. i've made some good friends from doing that, and i feel like most people should give it a chance too. so if you've clocked someone on your "possibly chronically online" radar then try giving them a smile, or a wave! you might make a new friend ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
we r so united but so divided

I’ve had this happen to me a million times it’s actually kinda pathetic. I almost approached soneone once, well two people technically. It was at a fleamarket, these two girls were dressed in really cool outfits and I thought “I’m gonna compliment them!” but they kept walking around and I was trailing from behind trying to approach them but it felt so terribly awkward I just ended up walking the other way like I wasn’t right behind them a minute ago. My anxiety doesn’t help either. Anxiety will really go to lengths to make u think people are gonna turn u into stone just for being in public like I’m in the damn LIBRARY, nobody even cares fr. Idk I’m always hoping people come up to me first but that rarely happens. I find wearing band tees help the most. Wore a Green Day shirt once at a one-day theatre camp and this girl commented on it. We exchanged numbers but things got awkward and I never texted her again. Another time I was trying to get a book and autograph from an indie author I know and straight away she told me she liked my Gorillaz shirt I was wearing then so yknow the point is…uh nvm I forgot what I was trying to say
possibly the realest comment, maybe ever?

In the outside, everyone wants to kill you, physically or socially, the people "that seem cool", see you and think, "I should kill this guy before he kills me", that's why I never go outside, it's too dangerous, one second you plan on "making a new friend"(this will never happen),and the other second you see yourself lying on the floor with your jugular slit, all because you thought that another human being is your friend.
such is life in the zone
