    You know one thing I have noticed relatively recently is the rise of dating via unconventional sources, ie online. Almost as if they are penpals, they conect via nontraditional sources- meeting your SO on reddit really inst as rare as you would think, discord, twitter, and so on. With Tinder/OKC and the swipe apps being well, dogshit, I feel as if people have more success on unconventional paths like online sites that arent specifically made for dating.

    Its really bizarre, yet I hear more people within my various friend groups that meet their SO online. Worlds a whole lot smaller than you'd think.

    you sound like someone that has adhd. i only know this because i myself have adhd. Sounds alot like me. the obessive tendencies that consume your life for only 4 hours then you drop it at the sign of the next new thing, use drugs to cope with life etc.

    weed.

    Yes, weed can be addictive. Not in the sense that drugs such as heroin, or liquor can be, no. It is a separate thing. Unlike video games, weed gets you in a altered warped perception/mindset. Video games are one thing, but they DO not alter your mind ie make you high/drunk.

    Been clean since May 20th, 2017, alongside nicotine. And my life has been fucking amazing ever since. I also avoid alcohol like the plague as I am terrified of the person that I become when im drunk. Which is unfortunate, as I am 21.

    what about the things that make u seem so tiny and insignificant to the world at large. Like your life has no meaning, just another ant roaming this thing we call earth.

    I've done this before. Its up there on one of my hardest choices of my life. Even to this day i debate wheather or not it was a good thing. But I HAD to; my best friend was a fucking drug dealer.

    Having acess to drugs was just waaaaaaaaaaaaay too easy and too convienet. The guy never showed any signs of abetting either. Fucking tragic all around. Last I heard he was a alcoholic too.

    To this day I dont regret it fully, as I am living a good lfie now. But it hurts.

    I notice this from time to time. That mailman? He probably is holding this job to feed his family. Same with the 40 year old man at your local grocery store. Its just mind boggling, the scale and scope of this world; we retreat into our own little world at times yet the world is not small, its huge.

    also i spelled protagonist wrong oops
