realizing that while I joke about not knowing how to start a friendship, it's really true and exaggerated in RL.
if I dont click right away with people in RL, we usually dont become friends. I know thats shortsided but I always trust my gut.
no, my issue is that in RL I'm much more awkward than I even am online so that if I want to be friends with someone I get all goofy.
and not in a good way mind you.
it can be extremely awkward. Making friends (or at least acquaintances) online is far easier.
