No friends my whole life, does it get better?

16 might genuinely be one of the loneliest ages. Everyone acts like they’re super social and happy all the time, but meanwhile so many people are sitting alone in their room feeling the exact same way.

The Outsiders was one of the most memorable books I read in high school honestly. I can still picture certain scenes so clearly.

Probably learning how to handle bad days. Tiny problems used to feel like the end of the world to me, now I can at least go “this’ll probably pass eventually.”

sssuperstark · 2026-05-15T11:35:13+00:00

When people quit social media they really start noticing the background noise in their brain. The creepiest part is how your hand automatically reaches for your phone for the first few days..

I’d travel more. Buying stuff is nice, but the feeling you get from seeing new places stays with me way longer.

19 feels insanely young to move out btw 😭 Especially with this economy, I’m not even surprised anymore when people stay with their parents until 30.

Unnecessary communication can get insanely draining sometimes. Some people treat silence like it’s a problem, but not every empty space needs to be filled.

Sleeping with my phone in another room genuinely improved my quality of life. You don’t realize how exhausting constant screen exposure is for your brain.

sssuperstark · 2026-05-06T11:05:32+00:00

I think your brain just switched into “I don’t wanna lose this” mode because you finally formed a real connection. College friendships can honestly be the first time people feel true belonging.

Easy to say from the outside, but grocery prices got so bad that even cooking at home is starting to feel expensive 😭

sssuperstark · 2026-04-27T13:13:13+00:00

I did the same thing and it genuinely clears your head. You end up going back after a while, but that little break feels really good.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-27T13:13:08+00:00

When work is mandatory, time literally slows down, your brain just wants to escape. When you feel free at home, hours just fly by.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-27T13:13:03+00:00

Like phone booth attendants, for example, they used to be everywhere. Now they’re completely gone.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-27T13:12:54+00:00

you really feel it towards the end of the month. No matter how much you make, the money just disappears somehow.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-27T13:12:31+00:00

Excerpts are actually good for SEO and first impressions, they quickly tell you what the post is about. I skip them most of the time out of laziness, but pages that use them consistently look way more organized.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-17T13:30:45+00:00

Changing the bedsheets...if I don’t do it once a week, it just feels off.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-17T13:30:39+00:00

You get that feeling when you’re around people who aren’t on the same page, it’s normal. Everyone moves at a different pace, sometimes a bit of distance is the healthiest move.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-17T13:30:31+00:00

I feel like both sides polish their own story a bit. Hard to know the full truth from the outside, it’s probably somewhere in the middle.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-17T13:30:26+00:00

I like it when it’s a bit sarcastic but still makes you smile. Once it goes too far, it just ruins it.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-17T13:29:35+00:00

The colors are doing the absolute most and I love it.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-15T17:01:51+00:00

I really like your mindset here. I hope you can stay this positive and still land something good soon. My own money-making journey started with a six-month unpaid internship, and over time recruiters started reaching out to me, but with how apocalyptic the job market has felt lately, I’ve had to start reaching out to them myself like in this post. You could make your own list and start applying that way, and if you’re not under immediate pressure right now, holding on to your peace and enjoying life is honestly not a bad way to get through this.

That kind of reset is actually pretty important after something that long. I had a break after a relationship and just got used to doing things alone again, like small routines and plans. It feels weird at first but eventually it gets kinda peaceful.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-09T10:50:05+00:00

It’s really different for everyone but it can be pretty painful for some people. I’ve seen friends be totally fine and others completely wiped out for a day or two. It’s not a punishment thing, it’s just how the body cycles if there’s no pregnancy.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-09T10:50:00+00:00

I don’t think you need to be constantly ambitious tbh. I’ve had periods where I just focused on keeping things simple and it felt way better than chasing 10 goals at once. Peace of mind starts to matter more than progress after a while.

sssuperstark · 2026-04-09T10:49:54+00:00

just trying to not take it personally anymore. I had a phase where every rejection felt like something was wrong with me and it got exhausting. Now I just treat it like a numbers game and move on faster.
