That introvert life tho

Got asked for my number in-person recently . . .

Unfortunately by a man that was twice my age because the universe likes to troll me…

I hate dating but I’ll do it again if a single guy CLOSE to my age asks for my number.

Too bad I never leave my house, don’t date online, would never ask a guy out, and look terrible whenever I step out of the house. I’ll be a world traveling spinster until the end of time.

That introvert life…

When someone calls you on the phone instead of texting . . .

When your friends invite you to an event you might “like” it’s hard to say yes

But then they convince you

Everything is fine until the day of the event gets closer

And you’re hit with existential dread and terror

But suck it up and go bc you can’t cancel on your friends

And somehow, you end up having fun!

Even when your social battery dies, you push through

And it takes days to recoup

But in the end, it was worth it

And you’ll definitely go again or maybe, you’ll just let the good times roll in your head

That introvert life though (lesson 6)
