I don't know if this is allowed here, so if I'm violating any rules then I apologize.
So I haven't had anyone in years that I could call a friend that actually lived near me. The only friends I've had have been online, and most of them lived halfway around the world. Don't get me wrong, it's nice having those online friends to text or even voice with from time to time but it isn't the same as being able to spend time with someone in person. I just want someone I can get out of this place and go do things with, even if it's just something really simple like a walk or going to a park or something. I can't even remember the last time I was able to get out and actually do something with a friend, and I'm not sure if anyone can really understand how that feels but it's really painful. I'm just really tired of feeling alone, no pain can match that feeling, and I just want someone around for once so I don't feel alone all the time.
I don't want to sound like a jerk or anything, but please don't reply if you're just going to tell me to go out and try to meet people or anything like that. If it was that easy for me I would have done it long ago but the anxiety holds me back every time. I can't talk to people face to face or even in something like a voice chat or phone call unless I feel comfortable with them, so just going out and trying to befriend someone isn't going to work for me, hell it can be hard enough just pushing myself to go outside. I keep hoping I could meet someone online that lives in my area, that way I could message them online for a while then potentially meet them in person in the future once I felt comfortable chatting with them . It just seems that no matter how many sites I try I can never meet anyone that lives close, and after thinking about it for a long time I decided I would try here too.
So I'm from New York though I won't say specifically where, though if by some chance anyone else is from this state and messages me I will say. I'm really not expecting anything to be honest, but if there is anyone out there please message me. Also if anyone knows of possible ways to meet local people online that would be nice as well.
