I've tried several times, but electronic communication + politics has infected and destroyed everything social I use to do.
I've lived on my own for 20 years so son't think that I'm actually this young, but the rick and morry clip basically captures what it's like to do anything with my parents, it's like me speaking causes them pain and discomfort if I say anything that's not a rehash of when I was a kid. They'll invite me over endlessly (it's not like they don't actually want me around) then act like if we don't rehash the same conversation we've had 100 times I'm a bad person. https://youtu.be/bRBPrcBfimI
My friend from high school got into politics + a manager position and he's intolerable.
I could go on, but it's been several cycles of hyping myself into getting together with someone, taking a social beating that often didn't use to be there, going "what was I thinking going to extra effort to get together with people like this" and I end up back on the internet. I mean, at least it wakes my brain up.
