Feeling Lonely on a Friday Night

Being 20 sucks for me. It’s probably my least favorite part of life so far. When you’re 20, you kinda just want to escape life and stuff. I literally have been taking every chance I can get to just ignore life and focus on what truly does make me happy. Unfortunately there isn’t much of that. I find myself continuing the same process every week. “Complete schoolwork, get through minimum wage work, sleep”

I've barely had that my whole life. Rarely partied. It's usually not fun the next day either. Youth is overrated. Especially if you're not able to just stop and enjoy your own life. Most people at parties are either drunk or drugged and don't care about you anyway. Sometimes I regret not going out but most times I don't. Especially because Friday is one of the most dangerous nights of the week. Yeah, humans are social creatures, but you can still feel lonely even when you're not alone. I wish more people would do things like birdwatching and stop calling people that do that lame. Learning about animals and things other than humans is so enlightening and peaceful. You'd be surprised but some bird watching communities are really fun to be a part of. If you have a local bird store, go ask some questions. Intelligence is a prettier trait to have imo. Birdwatching isn't the only hobby like that. If animals aren't you're thing, try to find something you like that you ignore because you're afraid of people calling you weird. Their opinion is irrelevant. Be yourself.

I'm 24 and honestly I just hang with my online friends most nights. I'm an introvert so going out isn't at the top of my fun things list, but if it is for you you're allowed to go out on your own! Take yourself on a date
