This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Thanks for typing it out! Half of the people here apparently have never dated or had fun the old way, without apps. In fact, it's downright sad to see that basic human interaction is dying out. These skills that everyone kind of had to learn in the past transfer to day to day life. Many younger people are just not pleasant to be around in the office because they have zero social skills.

The wild part is that I'm not even 40 yet.

And, I am literally autistic, struggled with socializing a fair bit in middle and high school, and then forced myself to learn social skills in college, in part through going to bars and learning how to be a wingman and such.

Like... what I have described is the 101 stuff, lol.

Maybe I'm just... too good at masking, or something? I dunno anymore.
