So I moved back to my city after 7 years where my family lives.

It’s been 2 years but I never really enjoyed people here. Mostly people I met were from my previous circles, family, school friends and their partners.

I always thought something was off and maybe over time I will figure things out but it was just not happening.

Yesterday I went to dinner with my partners friends and damn it was whole different vibe. As if it’s a different culture. I really enjoyed talking and was genuinely interested in next meeting.

Resparked my joy in meeting people and I guess I was with wrong people and there are people who are out there who vibe match with me but it’s so hard to find them.

    People get distracted so easily now.

    Honestly every gathering should have people leave their phones in a locker at the door. Guarantee it’ll be more fun.

      I actually don’t bring my phone when I leave the house. Especially if it’s for a short trip under an hour or 2.

      It blows people’s minds and they immediately start lecturing me how stupid, rude and irresponsible it is. What if someone texts me and I can’t reply for a few hours? THE HORROR.

        Its great doing this! The only issue is I drive older cars so the phone is very nice in case of a breakdown ha

        A dumb phone for calls only would be good for that. But youd have to preload it with phone numbers of tow companies and friends etc. Would be pretty easy…

        I much prefer not having my phone on me. Humans forgot how to be bored and instantly turn to the little dopamine device at any chance
