Where exactly am I supposed to go as a poor young 20-something to socialize with other people my age IRL? I don't drink or party and not interested in starting. I go to work and I'm the youngest person in the building by a decade. I go to church and I'm the youngest person by TWO decades. I go to the mall on the weekend and the only people hanging around are elderly mall walkers. I go to the library to chill and the only other people chilling are old homeless people. Ever since the pandemic, I feel like young people don't hang out in public anymore. After much thought I did try Snapchat. All I saw was Prime Hydration ads and TikTok-addled weirdos and people selling drugs. I deleted it. I don't have a single contact in town within 15 years of myself. I go out on the town almost every day after work and I know a lot of storeowners and so on. I'm "a regular" in a few places and tons of people from my work (old homeless men) say hi to me in the street.

@Cage_L33 bars and university student unions. That shit sucks though just hang out here is much cooler.

@MemeLandfill I hated university so bad, I dropped out and went to work and moved out and just "grew up." I tried all the social stuff. I was in three clubs and went on two different out-of-state, multiple day social trips through them. I just never ended up with friends.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong or what I can do different. I've tried different churches, but all the churches I'm willing to attend are too conservative for zoomers apparently. Even when I've gone to the gym, maybe it's the time of day or something, but it's all old people. Like 45+. Is it because I work weekends, and go to the gym at like 7AM on a Tuesday? Is the whole "early rising sigmachad" thing a meme? Is everyone my age literally just asleep or nursing their hangovers? Am I supposed to go to a rich person gym? I think I'll literally go days without talking to someone within 5 years of my age. Where are the young people?

@Cage_L33 the young people are staying in school setting as long as possible, in drug dens, doing likely wagier shit than you. (Fast food, retail, etc) work is not bad, but loneliness is a bitch. Video games used to help me, but lately they no longer do it for me. Most friends will fall off anyway, so if you already have none at least you are saved from the pain of them falling off on you later. You can kindle friendships from places like this just be careful of glow niggers. I took on a trade at 21 after dropping univ and doing the drug den thing. I have two friends left from grade school and one has lefty brain rot and insufferable lefty gf. I rarely talk to them even more rarely see them. Best thing is to just do as men have forever and begin your own family, but that requires a partner which is part of your problem. My only recommendation in partner hunting is that anyone except a coworker would be fine.

@MemeLandfill I've got too many demons to date seriously, although I had a few girlfriends in my teenagehood. In general I think my fucked up past keeps me from making friends. Most people in my situation would find plenty of friends in "the wrong crowd" but instead I just am alone. It's not that I'm socially akward but rather that people universally report I act old for my age and I think I'm offputting to my peers because they're still essentially "kids."Unironically hoping that enlistment will be what I need socially and economically.

@Cage_L33 best of luck to you fren. Family is best if you can't have that friends can be good. However friends aren't always a 'support system'. Enlistment will give you support system and even if you aren't buddy buddy with others at least you are all in it together. The reason it feels so fucked now is because we have been conditioned by the electric talmud and shit. All throughout history man has only really gave a shit and wanted to hang with his own family and that is the natural order of things and what is most fulfilling in life.

@Cage_L33 being fulfilled in life should minimize demons also.
