    Highly, highly relate. It feels like I’m always searching to find someone who feels this way. Like in the context of social events, I will always be the one person at the event trying to find the other person (or people) who are also looking as lost as myself. But I truly never can

    This thought has been there as early as elementary school basketball tryouts and persisted throughout the entirety of my pathetic existence

      !!! so much this. I definitely try to find the other leftover weirdos to befriend, and it is not necessarily a reliable strategy, but it’s better than hanging with the normies

      it’s why I’ll probably never entirely give up cigarettes – they’re just too useful as a social crutch, which I desperately need
