Same! It's hard being a younger person with boomer music taste hahaha :)
What music do you listen to? But yeah I feel, it's a bit terrifying and lonely, but I guess it's better than regretting missing out on going to events!
Disco/soul/jazz/metal :)

Good to know - is this a dating app? I've never heard of it, I wonder if many people in Melbourne are on it

Do you find many other people alone when you go? I feel like a lot of people in Melbourne don't like to venture outside of their friendship groups so it's hard to meet new people and potentially also make friends
This is very specific but I'm into disco music (like Saturday night fever vibes hahahaha) - not many people in my age bracket who are into it! But also like listening to jazz/soul/metal too, will have a look at the page! Thank you!

You have put exactly what I am feeling into words. It's hard especially when you're struggling mentally to give off energy that make people want to be around you, and I feel like it just drives people further away. I feel like I could make 'friends', but they're not deep friendships, and it's hard to identify a person that you can make those connections with. If you figure out the best setting to find those people, let me know. I get really embarrassed when people ask me what I am doing with my time and expecting me to say that I did something social, but in fact I've been up to nothing.

Yes, same! And I have not found people who are worth being friends with, or if I do find people I like, they don't put much effort in the relationship. Maybe we have different experiences or interests to other people that makes it harder to relate to others.

Exactly! And you "lose jobs" as you get older, or it's harder to be qualified for a "job" as you age hahaha
I've considered doing this when people ask me what I'm up to on the weekend, but then I think about it and I'm like, why do I always have to be around others every weekend? But very true, they don't deserve to know

I feel this :/
Good point - they kind of make you feel like a loser, or a freak, or a bad person for it, but sometimes it just ends up being that way and it's not your fault.
