WWAWD sudden realization that at 34 years of age you no longer really know how to properly interact with/connect with your peers.

I thought I'd get less awkward with age. Not the case.

Rope store

Are you implying there is a store that sells nothing but rope? What kind of a business model is that? How much demand could there possibly be? How do they compete with the hardware stores with a much more secure, diverse business model? I think you're fibbing. I don't think there's such a thing as a rope store. This is just silly.

30 years old and going through the same thing, brotherman. I feel like an alien interacting with a different species. I like people, and sometimes find them amusing, but I can never fully connect.

Probably autism

in the same boat. i considered joining those toastmasters classes earlier this year to try to improve my conversation skills but i got busy. Still considering it though. It would be great to navigate through social interactions with normies without appearing aloof or retarded.

Social media has ruined interpersonal communication. As well as modern schooling. I went to a party recently and one of the girls there instead of talking to people at the party.....was asking for their phone numbers so she could just sit in the corner and text them.

Now this store absolutely does not exist. Who would even want to purchase that as a niche item? You guys are pulling my leg. Stop being jerks, there's no such thing as a rickety stool store. I even looked it up on google maps. What are you guys doing? Stop playing pretend.

In all seriousness when people ask me what I listen to, I just say old Stern because I don’t want to explain OnA to them or have them guh-gle them.

I'm not going to lie, the girl I went on a date with that triggered this whole thing - I have perfectly natural, perfectly flowing, totally comfortable conversations over messenger with her, the moment we get in a room together and she makes eye contact, I am just fucking... just... yeah... not there. I didn't used to be like this either.

 

[Lamont & Tonelli]

I'm so sorry, Turk.

I thought you were married to an old cat lady. Or are you one of those guys who refer to their girlfriend as their wife?
