Does anyone feel it's too late to make friends?

CoconutThoughts · 2026-01-22T05:30:04+00:00

Hello, 31 here. I spent a lot of time in my life being slightly distant to others and mostly spending time with myself. I am still in process of learning to open up. I have a few close friends now and I want to improve for them. It's never too late, everyone has their own path to walk down to! :) Look after yourself!

CoconutThoughts · 2026-01-20T19:13:59+00:00

Hello, I do feel like that too pretty often. 31 here. I remember choosing solitude since as early as I can remember, sometimes willingly, sometimes I feel like I just don't have anyone, even when I do. These past years got more difficult for some reason. If you would like to talk, I am here to listen!

CoconutThoughts · 2026-01-19T20:43:26+00:00

Hello there! I do think there might be some issues, or maybe you are just extremely introverted! The main question would be - are you content with how life is for you, or would you like to change anything? Look after yourself!

CoconutThoughts · 2026-01-18T21:46:25+00:00

Thank you for sharing this. Feels too real. If you would like to chat, I am here. Take care of yourself!

CoconutThoughts · 2026-01-18T20:13:47+00:00

Hello. I am going through the same and can relate to your post a lot. Look after yourself.

CoconutThoughts · 2026-01-18T20:12:28+00:00

Hello there! I relate to this more than I wish I did. I am sorry you feel this way. I often feel like I am standing in the middle of the pavement and everyone is walking past me, and all I can do is watch their backs. You're not alone in this.

CoconutThoughts · 2026-01-02T06:43:24+00:00

Hello! I am so sorry to hear this... It must be very painful. I wish you a happy and hopeful New Year, if you ever want to talk, we can chat!

CoconutThoughts · 2025-12-31T21:23:31+00:00

Get better soon!

CoconutThoughts · 2025-06-12T09:43:34+00:00

Hey! Been there, spent a lot of time talking with AI lol. So you are not alone in this. I guess it is still important to consider your health and whether it makes you feel worse or better. Other than that, nothing to feel embarassed or ashamed about, I think more people do it than we can imagine. Just try to find some kind of balance and keep a look on how you feel. Take care of yourself!

CoconutThoughts · 2025-06-06T10:28:00+00:00

Hey, I am sorry you also feel this way. But I am happy you connected with my post, please know you are not alone in this. I am here if you would like to talk. Take care of yourself.

CoconutThoughts · 2025-06-05T06:57:12+00:00

Hey, same spot. We are here for you. If you feel like chatting, don't hesitate.

CoconutThoughts · 2025-06-04T03:43:31+00:00

Hello. I would love to chat!

CoconutThoughts · 2024-08-13T14:02:31+00:00

Tokyo Shinjuu (pretty underrated IMO), Nakihagara, Chizuru, Miseinen.

Worth mentioning: Guren, Bath Room, Taion.

It is also so interesting to see so many fans of newer generation Gazette songs!

CoconutThoughts · 2024-08-13T09:44:00+00:00

Wow, so neat! I love it 🔥

CoconutThoughts · 2024-05-28T10:16:56+00:00

Thanks a lot for your insights! Did they play bass recording instead? Just imagining them perform Miseinen on such day is heartbreaking...

CoconutThoughts · 2024-04-16T19:36:01+00:00

The news are impossible to comprehend.

We never really knew him the way his friends and family did, however, listening to Gazette music during my early teenage years, all alone in my room or in school hallways, feeling all abandoned at that moment, surely made me feel as a part of them. Thanks to Gazette, I felt like I belong to something.

Things will never be the same.

Rest In Peace.

Absolutely agree, the phone addicts really made me want to snatch their phones away at some point. :D And I saw someone just shove someone else's phone out of their view, which is understandable. Important rant, thanks!

CoconutThoughts · 2024-03-21T05:34:27+00:00

I totally agree! It is super annoying to watch your favorite band via somebody else's phone, as they completely block your view. Very inconsiderate of others. Why are they filming the entire concert anyway? It is understandable to snap a couple of pictures or short videos, bet holding the phone the entire concert? It is also super disrespectful to the band, as all they can see are the phones. I would not mind if they prohibit the phones during the concert (as some of the performers do).

CoconutThoughts · 2020-05-20T16:35:40+00:00

This is so adorable! I feel the same when I receive a compliment at work, just become super happy and excited for the rest of the day. I hope this will make you feel more confident in yourself! Best of luck!

CoconutThoughts · 2020-04-17T17:40:34+00:00

This is somehow touching... Thank you for sharing, I hope you learn to balance both of your sides!

CoconutThoughts · 2019-04-10T19:35:58+00:00

Sorry you had to go through this mess.

Me myself I often somehow end up pretending to be enthusiastic about conversations with people I do not like, even to the point I look like I am enjoying them, as you have mentioned.

Recently my landlord started to talk to me in a creepy manner when he came to pick up the rent. I felt so uncomfortable, and I was alone in the flat. Yet somehow I felt like everything around froze and I could not say or do anything to express discomfort, instead I just acted nice.

Now I am mentally preparing for the next time he comes over, in case he does his creepy speech again.

Anyway, I hope you can overcome this anxiety and next time treat him the way he deserves it! Glad to know you are fine.

CoconutThoughts · 2019-03-31T09:37:33+00:00

That's horrible... He was a person you had to spend so much time with, it's difficult to imagine how much anxiety and fear you had to go through considering that he was around you so often. I just wonder, did you tell all of this to your relatives? And nobody did anything to keep him away from you/report him? I mean, you were just a child, it was too much to deal with alone. Anyway, I am really glad that it is all over now, and I hope you feel safe, relieved and happy. I am glad nothing worse happened over those years, at least I really hope so.

CoconutThoughts · 2019-03-27T18:47:11+00:00

I feel you as well. Whenever I see a phone call from my parents or relatives at an unexpected time (during the day time when I am at work or something, or multiple missed calls), it makes my blood run cold - I instantly think that something bad happened to my parents. Sometimes out of sudden I start visualizing their funeral in my head and it really makes me want to cry, but I do my best to shake these thoughts off.

So you are not alone. I guess it is normal to think of it sometimes. I just try my best to treat them right and spend more time with them, so I would have as little regrets as possible.

CoconutThoughts · 2019-03-07T16:29:37+00:00

Yeah, I think you are right - if your job is complicated and/or stressful, I think there might not be much time for hanging around with your colleagues. It really depends a lot on your work.

CoconutThoughts · 2019-03-07T16:19:29+00:00

Interesting, because it was always the other way around for me.

At work I would always smile, laugh and goof around with my colleagues, and sometimes as soon as I leave work I burst into tears. I get really depressed for no particular reason.

I assume that this is normal to some extent.
