    So on a scale of 1-30? Not 1-18?

    Okay then:

    • STR 4
    • DEX 6
    • CON 17
    • INT 18
    • WIS 21
    • CHA 12

    For justification:

    I can’t lift most things people can, in many ways im less strong than comparable in terms of height cis women. I’m a clutz but can occasionally display dexterity like dodging out of the way of something or catching a difficult casual throw of some object.

    I recovered from surgery about 2 months ahead of schedule, I frequently just ignore the fact food is expired and eat it and I’m fine most of the time, never been seriously sick or broke a bone and have put my body through absolute hell in terms of circumstances and drugs and am fine.

    I wouldn’t say I’m smart but I do work in cybersecurity and am learning hacking which requires a lot of brain effort, so I suppose being able to keep up with that must mean I’m fairly above average.

    Wisdom I’d say I’m pretty high on, I can connect between disparate ideas and cross-domain knowledge fairly easily and intuitively.

    My charisma is okay when I am dunking and roasting people, I have a good sense of humour, but I’m not very convincing, I’m a critic.

    That’s a dumb idea though, best shot to make friends is through a website or social media or dating app.

    Outside it’s almost impossible because like lol you’re not gonna harass randoms at a grocery store because you like their band t-shirt or smth unless you’re 13.

    And I suppose unless you’re already some outdoorsy knucklehead, but then the kinda folks you meet in those situations aren’t the ones at least i’d want around, there’s not much to talk about with a person like that, can’t share any hobbies like e.g. exploit dev, music production, video games, electronics (breadboards, Arduino, that kinda dealie), politics, history, economics, drugs (no weed or alcohol tho ewww 🤮) plus they’re probably some moron who thinks 5G causes COVID, trump is going to fix Europe and vaping is harmful for you and drinks coffee instead of monster and probably eats sugary food etc etc…

    Idk what I’m saying anymore or why I’m on this app. My company is the only one I enjoy. I think I have schizoaffective disorder.

    People at the pub don’t talk to strangers, bruh, pls tell me your so-called “advice” isn’t to literally just harass random stranger groups just having a day out at the pub. As an extraverted person please don’t do that, that’s gonna get the cops called on ye sooner or later, most of us are just being polite.

    At school you are in forced social situations where you have to bond to “survive” (ask for advice/help to pass classes), less at uni, but it still helps. That’s why the friends I have from there I’m honestly relatively distant with because we don’t actually have much in common except past shared experience.

    I do meet people plenty, all initially online though, not IRL. Dating apps have been where I met most of my friends.

    You were talking about IRL, yet mention game servers and VRC? Wut?

    I do appreciate the suggestions but I wasn’t asking for advice lol, I was debating your point. I have no trouble meeting people, but your way isn’t one I’ve ever had success with, as a not-so-young-anymore adult. Online has been much more fruitful always.

    I guess what you’re trying to say is if you’re into all those outdoorsy hobbies you end up meeting people IRL?
