You shouldn't be, we need more well behaved people around... Just avoid the dumpster fireThis is a very nice idea because I fear the more well-behaved people (hopefully I am one of them) remain rather invisible here.
Must say everyone who has dm’d me has been lovely…I know about the Dumpster Fire. Some of its topics are amusing, others are just exemplary of entrenched ideas and people mistaking "freedom of expression" with "being allowed to be as rude as possible without the consequences". Not the hills I would like to die on. But DF aside, I find it difficult to simply send a message to start a chat, as I always veer to the worst-case scenario in which the person I sent the message will consider me yet another creep trying to get in touch.
Maybe but I doubt they'll yell at you or anything if you're being friendly.... Like I have a penis as my pfp and people are genuinely polite so I reckon go for it and message people if you think they're cool plus this site was made for our type of people to connect but I completely understand, I avoid other people irl incase they try to invite me to a cult or follow me home telling me they live me (both real examples and I didn't even talk to the lady that said she loved me, she just followed me from some place)I know about the Dumpster Fire.

Well, is a great place to see how people really is without being constrained.I know about the Dumpster Fire. Some of its topics are amusing, others are just exemplary of entrenched ideas and people mistaking "freedom of expression" with "being allowed to be as rude as possible without the consequences". Not the hills I would like to die on.
I hear youBut DF aside, I find it difficult to simply send a message to start a chat, as I always veer to the worst-case scenario in which the person I sent the message will consider me yet another creep trying to get in touch.
Same here. Maybe it's the autism here, but I try to read between the lines, and that's how I lose the train of thought. Finding it at times difficult to live with myself, I keep wondering why people would want to contact me in the first place.I hear you
I am really terrible on opening, so I keep delating that sort of thing ?
Because you seem cool af.... It's why I'm replying to youSame here. Maybe it's the autism here, but I try to read between the lines, and that's how I lose the train of thought.

I was cool 40 years ago lol
I guess, I'm gonna cop hate for this but that's if they can focus enough to hold a conversation... My ex was 25 and he would just sit on his phone when he would come over. I had to resort to texting him to have a conversation when we were togetherAge can be an issue too: listening to 1980s music here, bringing up quite some childhood memories, so that shows where to place me. Then I realise that there will be people here on this forum young enough to be my own children (not that I have any), and then to talk with them about zoosex.... Could that be awkward?
would love to chat moreAlways looking for new friends even if I'm a bit slow to respond sometimes.
AgreedNew friends are a good thing
?The idea behind this thread is if you have some free time and would like to have a friend to connect with raise your hand here ?
Raising your hand here is like an invitation for people to send you some messages.
I'm not saying there really is any rules but being respectful is always a good thing and if someone raised their hand a long time ago probably should consider the invite to chat expired.
c: I think two days old is a good expiry date.
