Mine, is how often people puff out their cheeks. Somebody got chewed out and they puff out their cheeks. Somebody is about to lose the throne and they puff out their cheeks. Somebody just died and they puff out their cheeks. It just breaks immersion for me
Little bit of back story, my romantic partner died five years ago. Shortly after that I decided to go to grad school and didn't have any spare time to socialize outside of hanging out with my two best friends, who are still in my life. After that I experienced some housing/ employment insecurity followed by finding a job with a crazy ass schedule which I'm just now leaving. Long story short my life is only now stable and free enough for me to feel like I have spare time and energy to form community and it feels like I'm starting at square one.
My hobbies and interests are pretty nerdy and solitary for the most part - working out, listening to audiobooks while taking walks or running at the park, and playing magic mostly. I definitely have activities to fill my time but those are not activities which really connect me to other people, and everyone knows dating apps are practically useless. How the hell do you go about actually meeting people out in the real world? Advice welcome.
