    @bignosegirly0 I just wanted to say, you have a very kind soul to be fighting on just so your family aren't sad. That takes enormous strength as a person and enormous kindness, and like eylah said, we all care about you, and we're all proud of you.

    I didn't have my first friend until i joined the mix 4 months ago, on my 23rd birthday. I know how crushing it can feel, being unable to form friendships and relationships and feeling so alone for years on end, like it will never change, and i thought it wouldn't change either for a long time, and i was wrong. Even if it's just friends to talk to on the mix. As little consolation as this is, friendships can pop up in the most unexpected of ways. Please don't give up hope.
