maybe you should develop a little more?
I mean, one does not 'find a friend or partner on lemmy', or anywhere else. Friendship, like love, is something that may happen and that will often not happen but we all need to work for it to maybe become a thing. Friends and partners are not stored somewhere, patiently waiting for us to need/want them ;)
Edit: clarifications.
I like the tone of your response. The last sentence is especially insightful.
Thx, much appreciated. Doing my best which is often not that great (English is not my native language)
I almost forgot I got a basement full of them.
Why is it when I hear 'basement full of people' I immediately remember that chapter in McCarthy's novel 'The Road'? That scene was so... horrifyingly plausible—not recommended to anyone easily frightened and/or disgusted. A truly wonderful book, nonetheless. Really amazing.
I would say the movie adaptation is a bit easier to watch but still more than quite tense.
Well said. It took me many years of my life to realize this.
