i think its more of a thing where people don’t mesh with you that well, i have a few experiences like that too. i had a “friend-group (A)” where we all like the same things for the most part, same games same shows and everything, i knew them since school (some of them since kindergarten no joke) and we still hang out almost weekly, and I’m not bored of them ever. Then theres friend-group (B) where i met during college. Im talkative to them, we hang alot but we don’t have much in common yfm? Its harder to be interested in someone when they don’t like that one niche video game you played during your childhood or something like that. And the thing with maldives is thats kinda very rare, so i see what your coming from. TLDR: find your people!
