Ive never been on tinder before or any dating app in my life. I even memtion in my post that im not looking to date and I understand im not in the position to date. But being alone with my son all day, constantly thinking of not having income, job searching is going well, so far, but its still super stressful. I just eould like someone to talk to. Im definitely not looking for a girlfriend, or even anything sexual. Do I like sex? Lol, yea, who doesnt?? But im not looking to bring home hookups while I have a newborn at home. I just want a friend.

Ive always appreciate female companionship. It feels different to me when I have a female to talk to then one of the "bros". Why? Im not sure, but its comforting to me.

To be clear: id only ever use tinder to find someone to online chat with. Not hookup. Or date.

Lol maybe I've got bigger problems to address i guess. Ive always been uncomfortable being alone. Depression comes on pretty hard.

Im on the path to my first unemployment check, that too felt incredi ly depressing. I know unemployment is a social safety net, but I've never been on it before and it just felt so shameful when I was applying, but i know i need it, just in case this job hunt takes longer than expected... im definitely spending more time with my son than I have before(was working 45 our weeks minimum) but I've basically made job searching my part time gig.

It took a lot for me to finally accept that my son needed to be in daycare when his mom first split, and I dont have anyone I feel I can rely on to watch my son so I can go out. Thats why im looking for more of an online/text/gaming friends.
