How's your New Year's been so far, Spens?

Sorry, dude.
You're not alone in that, man. Plenty of us had to go down that road too. But we lived to tell about it.
You'll be alright.
And yeah, I know exactly what you mean. I've never seen a website like Funnyjunk and I doubt I ever will again. Still, the community has carried me ever since I first started using the internet and I feel just as close to the users here as the people I share a room with.

Yeah, this place is full of some weird ass ************* . But they're pretty amazing people.
I liked being alone. For a long time I was asking for some alone time because no one would stop bothering me. Now that I have it I was getting all sad because I was alone before I realized this is what I asked for.

How've you been, dude? Holding up alright?

Absolutely, the whole "Strangers on the internet are sick and evil" thing never really rang true to me after spending so much time on this site.
Yeah, I've met pedophiles, burnouts, and scam artists here, but the good overshined the bad tenfold with the financial supporters, suicide preventers, and moralfags.
The hivemind is a bit cancerous here and there but all things considered I'm glad to have called this place home for so long.

It's like they always say: Be careful what you wish for.
Honestly I'm not too many steps from your position. Sure I have a cat and my gf but I don't leave the house often and haven't talken to any IRL friends in years now.
The only other people I really socialize with are Shea's family. But thankfully I'm going back to Kentucky for a few days to reconcile with my family and buds.
I'm sure you'll be able to come back to those you miss soon.

I've been in Tennessee for a year now and in the end I'd say I'm pretty happy. It sucks being away from so many of the people I used to know but I'm working each day to go back to them when I'm ready to move.
That's my coping method right there. Moving forward even when it feels too hard.
Howboutchu?

You're the only ten I see.
