Lately I’ve been interested in learning about ghosts, possession, rituals, and other terrifying historical or paranormal topics, but only from a knowledge/research perspective.

I’m not trying to experiment, perform rituals, visit haunted places, or do anything risky.

I’m mostly trying to understand the history, folklore, psychology, and cultural side of these topics.

Is there a proper term for this kind of study, and is there a subreddit where this question would fit better?

Also, I’ve noticed I’ve been watching a lot more horror movies recently, so I’m curious whether that’s just curiosity, stress, or something else.

Title.

I’m looking to make some cool online friends. I’m a bit introverted and prefer chatting one on one about things we both enjoy.

Just to be clear i am not doing this for timepass. I want a genuine, long term connection with a real friend.

I am looking to chat mostly on Instagram.

If you want a person to talk to and build a real friendship with, send me a DM! Please include your age and a little bit about yourself.

I am currently navigating cPTSD and AvPD. I spend almost all of my time in my room with screens, music, and my own interests because it’s the only place that feels entirely safe and within my control.

I want genuine friends. I know they exist, and I know there are people out there who are capable of truly understanding me. But I honestly have no idea how to find them.

Standard social advice always says things like go outside, join clubs, go to bars, talk to people. But to me, that sounds exhausting and dangerous. Forcing myself into loud, unpredictable, or superficial social situations just forces me to put on a fake mask, which eventually triggers my urge to run away, go cold, and isolate even harder.

I don't want timepass friends or fake social circles anymore. I want real connection, but I want to find it without destroying my peace or leaving my safe zone.

For those of you who also live behind screens and music, where and how did you actually find your people? Did you find genuine connections online through niche interests or specific communities? How do you bridge the gap from being a permanent island to building a low friction, safe friendship?

if i know someone then it may take a few days to let go of the feelings, but if not then i guess it's over a night.

i mean yeah i kinda feel angry at the moment, i mean yeah my anger and sadness is the same thing, but yeah, who cares? Life goes on.

And my other Libras, don't be sad... There are many opportunities that are waiting for you.

And yeah be grateful. Have a good day.

Do you think physical meetings are far better than online calls and texting?

And what do you do when you guys first meet with each other? i mean do you guys exactly talk like the way you talk in messages?

I am not sad but not happy. When i was in Primary i was surrounded by friends. In my school i had friends, in my building i had friends, you know, those moments felt like something great inside me and idk how to describe it.

but for some reason i lost all of them, some moved on to another city, some changed their house, and i really don't even know where they all are gone, i really miss them.

I wonder if i have that kind of friendship now it would be really great.

Now i don't have any friends not IRL not ONLINE.

In terms of battery backup, let,s say for long sessions gaming which one is better?...

What do you think about Drake, i mean do you think he is a good artist...? I mean how do you guys describe him?

I started watching TVD for like around 5 days and in the S1 they killed Anna and i am really pissed off since yesterday.

Literally "No hate" to anyone but i don't really like characters like Elena and Kytherin.

When i saw anna i was literally Watching only for her and Jeremy they had the "PEAK" potential... And i really wanted their bonding to last long...

after seeing the Death of anna... I genuinely don't wanna continue...

I think the S1 is enough for me...

I don't wanna say but i am really sad and also mad at the same time...

RIGHT PERSON, RIGHT TIME BUT WRONG WRITER...
