I’m very set in my routine. Log on for work between 8 and 9, work for 9 hours and often have a nap afterwards. Saturdays are my “me” time and then i have Sunday for chores. I don’t really have time or energy to foster those connections. I’ve got some friends i knew back in school i still talk to and play video games with, but in person interactions are lacking both due to time and geography. Also part of the reason i don’t have a boyfriend
