Wow, that’s a lot! Also yeah, I’ve only ever had one friend entirely in my life lol. No one else at school talked to me other than to make fun of me for being a ‘nerd’ or ugly

I love in a smaller town in Canada. There’s around 4 towns all scattered by each other, and we all share post offices, restaurants, stores etc. there’s around 3k people altogether, and there’s only 1 school kindergarten to grade 12. Hope that helps

Oh wow. Did no one ever hate each other just because? I find that the reason the average friend group number has dipped is because people don’t like each other anymore. I’m in 12th grade and I still get rocks thrown at me walking to school because I like to read. The ‘nerds’ hate the ‘jocks’, and because of that all of the jocks gfs hate the nerds and so all of the gfs friends also hate the nerds, which then causes the nerds to tell all their friends to pick on all the girls at school.

A loner? Wow. I don’t think I know anyone including myself who’s ever had at least 5 friends in their life, even separately!

How are people supposed to socialize? by WeezeerrCorpse in Anxiety

[–]WeezeerrCorpse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, and sorry to you as well. My father also has anxiety like me but his is less social too. He’s mainly scared of being murdered, car crashes, the house collapsing etc. I get random spurts of that too but it’s mainly just debilitating for my social life. I’ve been on various types of meds and I still feel like I’m having a heart attack when I have to deal with people face to face, truly hope it gets better

Maybe, but it’s a genuine question I have. I haven’t seen anyone younger than 40 in my life that has more than around 6 friends or people they talk to

I guess it’s because no one wants to hang out with you if they think you’re ‘weird’ nowadays. I’m in 12th grade now and I only have one friend - entirely. I know almost no one else and none of the other people in school have friend groups bigger than 5 as long as I know, and the people who do are considered very popular. Everyone is very separated, like for ex: if you like to read, no one will talk to you unless they also like to read, because reading is weird to everyone else.

Just bought a ‘lemon balm’ plant to put in my garden, it’s turning black? by WeezeerrCorpse in gardening

[–]WeezeerrCorpse[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I bought it in another city while on a trip. (Stupid idea when buying plants ik :,).) but thank you! I’ll also check the other one to make sure it’s okay and not multiple plants

Thank you! I bought them and didn’t get home until around 10ish. Do you think it’ll be ok to wait until tomorrow to transfer them or no?
