A place to make friends?
I live in an incredibly small town my and with my anxiety it is too hard to go and put myself out there, But I find myself just incredibly lonely. Does anyone know of some online communities to make honest friends? I tried meet me for a while for instance but it was over loaded with pervs and jerks.
I also saw there is no member to member chat on this site, And I'm not up for being a listener these days.
@CinnaBunnie i understand but unfortunetly i don't know of any i wish i did but if you need to talk you can post here and i'll respond when i can i know its not the same thing but still it might help
@Tiredandalone88 Yeah it's not quite the same. When I was like 12-17 While not at school I played a lot of mmorpgs (like WoW) and I had friends that enjoyed shooting the breeze with I miss having like 20 people on my Skype to just talk random stuff with whenever I had a device with me. If i had time I would probably join another game and guild but these days I don't have 40+ hours to pour into an mmo.

I thought there would be more of a member to member community on 7cups but the group chats are overloaded and there is just about no messaging options for member to members. It's actually been a huge let down. For a community making strides to end loneliness you would think they would have more methods in place to tie their lonely community together.
@CinnaBunnie yeah i agree i was surprised they didnt have a loneliness chat room the best they have is depression chat but like you said its overloaded
I guess you could potentially strike up a sort-of friendship with a listener-- of course it's not the same since true friendships are mutually supportive. But I've found that talking to my favorite listener-- although I learn close to nothing about him, he is so supportive it does alleviate my loneliness.
Otherwise online friendships are like regular friendships- it's sort of up to chances. You start joining places and talking and wasting a lot of time searching. Oh well. and maybe some day fate would have it for you and you would click with someone.

I already have one insanely fulfilling friendship, I met my friend Dillon when I was 12 On IMVU and we have be besties ever since. But with real life being so busy I want to build more of what i already know is out there and possible. I think it's worth trying to forge a new community option on 7cups.
