I'm likely on a yet another burnout cycle, and I have little to no possibility of meeting with people thanks to the place I live. I also have trouble with socializing in general, even in online spaces.

Since my current job I don't make enough to move or to live alone, and the only better place would cost me more than the Hungarian minimum wage (of which I make less than thanks to labor programs 🤢), I cannot really change this, also would only marginally help me since I always had issues with socializing.

“Someone told me the other day that he felt bad for single people because they are lonely all the time. I told him that’s not true I’m single and I don’t feel lonely. I take myself out to eat, I buy myself clothes. I have great times by myself. Once you know how to take care of yourself company becomes an option and not a necessity.”

~ Keanu Reeves

    I am not sure if that quote is helpful. Reality is humans long for companion of some kind, we are social animals and that includes us on the spectrum. Company becomes a option when you are assured that it is there for you if you need it. But it is not for most of us.

    That seems to be fully off topic.
