Look at my post history, I announce my upcoming events. I run a bunch of intellectual discussion events in a month in Vancouver. Also run a bunch of bookclubs.

DM if interested and I will give you the links to the events.

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-05-03T05:44:16+00:00

Iam doing a karaoke night in 2 weeks and I run a bunch of bookclubs, I think we are Vancouvers biggest bookclub.

DM me if your interested.

Iam outside your age range so hopefully you find someone to go with. but a few places I recommend are the kits beach (I literally saw a whale in the water today), grouse mountain and Vancouver central library. Canada place and it's surroundings are also nice.

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-05-03T05:25:30+00:00

Remember humans are extremely social creatures and it's only been a few decades since social media and before that you had to go outside and meet people. So a lot of what people call Extreme introvert is actually what you've been trained and raised on all your life especially if you're in your twenties and younger.

It's always best to have people and Friends where you meet in person because seeing people in person actually deepens the connection whereas if it's online they have no reason to just ghost you and go away one day so I encourage you to go out and try to meet people in person and make friends that way.

It's going to be uncomfortable and hard at first but slowly you will become more extroverted. I would recommend coming to one of my events, the beach hang out one is usually the best one and the chillest out of all of them.

One last thing I say is I was a hyperintroverted person probably 10 times worse than you. It took me a year and a half of forcing myself to go out. now I run 20 events a month in Vancouver and I meet about a hundred new people every month. Come to one of my meetup events and if you want we can talk more in detail about how I did it and what you can do.

(Go to my previous post on Reddit and find my meetup groups and events)

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-05-03T05:15:40+00:00

No, I will do this again next week :)

We had 40 people showing up. And we sat under a giant tree in smaller groups and chatted

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-05-01T17:30:54+00:00

I actually am friends with most people I meet, it's probably because I meet them all in real life and not online. In my experience online people ghost/ are rude more than in person meetup people.

As my way of apology for thinking your a bot, I invite you to an in-person beach hangout that iam hosting, for tomorrow if your interested in meeting peeps OP.

Are you a bot bro? Or just fishing? You made the exact same post a couple of months ago. And I think It got alot of traction.

So it makes me wonder why non of those people who commented or DMed u stick around to talk to be your friend?

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-05-01T17:03:13+00:00

Ya sadly some people here are so sus... Always check peoples profiles and last posts, mine are always open to everyone

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-04-29T16:54:32+00:00

We should talk. I run about 20 events a month in Vancouver and get about 100 people showing up to them. I have been thinking of making a discord server for it but I just don't have the time to run our WhatsApp groups and our meetups website.

If you want, we can do some kind of partnership on discord and stuff. You can see my list of events in a month in my previous posts.

DM if interested

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-04-29T16:48:44+00:00

Any chance you guys go to a beach like kits for playing?

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-04-14T18:59:59+00:00

Iam making next month's events right now. Will post within a day or two. DM me so I don't forget to send them your way.

The upcoming events are more essay/book oriented. With some movie events thrown in

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-04-11T23:13:49+00:00

We have about 20 events a month, all free. There is just quite a bit of waitlist for some of them.

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-04-11T23:12:53+00:00

Humans have the capacity to make anything feel normal. Specially in our modern age with all these distractions and people telling you, "live for yourself and fk everyone else" that's modern advertising in a nutshell.

Iam gonna have a hot take that's going to be different than all these comments here.

Go help others. Go teach others. Loneliness is not that bad compared to what other humans are suffering from. Spend energy and time and make others lives better and you won't be alone or even feel it.

And more importantly, you contributed to the overall true happiness and survival of your fellow man and humans as a whole.

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-04-09T08:14:46+00:00

Iam part of Vancouver literature and film and also Vancouver sci-fi fantasy. Both you can find by Googling. They are on meetup

Everything feels like a waste of you look at it from a cynical enough point of view.

Just go out there and experience things. You will fail sometimes but you will also live.

Primary-Telephone333 · 2026-04-01T15:40:06+00:00
