I think the reason it is so hard making friends now is because we do not communicate as well as we should. Had my toes dipped in the online pool long enough to know what works and what doesn't. Poor communication was the culprit of a lot of situations on both sides. Feel like being genuine is a good start to finding other good ones. So if you happen to be a part of the endangered species of good people online, then this applies to you.
I want a genuine friend. Someone I can get to know, share my plans of world domination with and grow closer to over time. People who ghost or only stick around for a couple of days are not what I am seeking. If you think you can be said person, I implore you to reach out. Love random or quirky conversations so if you always wanted to tell someone about something you felt others would not understand, now is your moment. I do not care what you look like. Not the type to ask for a picture right out the gate or in the beginning at all. Since this is based on friendship, I care more about your core than your shell.
Some perks include that I am a pretty damn good conversationalist. I can chat it up with the best of em and some notable feats include maintaining a 4 hour conversation with someone who tried to convince me that living as a duck is the ultimate comfort life (more stories like that can be shared). Laughter is good medicine so you can bet your ass funny stories and memes are ready to go. I like to think of myself as supportive and have played keyboard therapist to many many people in the past. They didn't even pay me in cookies, which kinda sucked. Too lazy to come up with embellished bullshit so you will get the brutal truth from me in regards to me. Fake people are about as fun as vegans at a barbecue so you will not find that here. Also, I am competitive, so if you are trying to break a streak for longest active friend, then I accept that as a personal challenge. Lastly, video calls or voice calls do not scare me. Those always flow better once trust is established, so I await that possibility when the time comes.
In conclusion, I take a lot of pride in my consistency so rest assured that I do get back to everyone who contacts me. Try to give people the benefit of the doubt. Everyone else is taken, so just be you
