[REMINDER]

Hey all, my names Tay, I’m a 20 year old who moved to the city in August. Since then, I’ve had no social life really. I was stuck in the hospital right up until the semester started and it made me swamped and it was almost impossible to make friends. I live with my boyfriend now and we both work insane hours near Columbus Circle, and on top of that I go to school in the financial district. I live in Washington Heights. I get along with my coworkers really well, but all of them are 5-25 years older than I am, which is fine, but I want to make friends with people in their 20’s. I used to be such a social, outgoing person. But I feel defeated and anxious because of this city. I walk home and get cat called almost every day, I even have been followed into my building which is terrifying. It’s made me into a timid, hardened person and I really don’t want that. I would love to meet up with people, because not having a social circle is genuinely depressing me, even though I am a very very very independent person.

So here’s some stuff about me: - I am queer, my boyfriend is my very first cis and straight boyfriend, which is very weird for me since I primarily am attracted to women or gender nonconforming people -I love hiking, going to new restaurants, exploring the city, going to museums, going to concerts, raves, festivals, etc -I love makeup! -I come from upstate NY, and my family owns a goat sanctuary with 200 goats (: so if you ever want to come upstate with me I can show you wonderful hiking spots, restaurants, and my goat farm! -I have rheumatoid arthritis -I love to write -I am a professional server so I’m only friends with people who are super duper respectful to people who are doing them a service -I have a cat! -I smoke weed (? Is that a thing people like to know? I’ll make you edibles) -I had a best friend who was catsitting my first cat but she drank all my alcohol and let my cat out (so I got a new one a few months later) :( so now I am out of a cat and a friend

Yeah I don’t know. Life just feels really hard with only my boyfriend to talk to. The place I work is also pretty professional so it’s hard to make meaningful friendships. I just miss having friends. I am a social person and I wish I could connect with someone here.

Feel free to message me if you’re in the same boat, or something. I don’t know.
