You underestimate my ability to mask. It's literally been automatic for me as long as I can remember. Find the person I like most within 5 minutes, and immediately cling to their style of humor and behavior. Then I stand in the circle and don't speak unless spoken to. Then everyone just assumes I'm a giant teddy bear and don't mind my company.

It's not the hardest thing for online friends. But irl friends, the only way I even made my last irl friend group was because we met online and found out we lived super close after a few months. So...

Easy.

Was on a road trip with my God father (friend of my parents usually referred to as an uncle) once and we stopped somewhere for gas. I went off to the side for a smoke and when my uncle came over to join me he was like "why is it you look like a local no matter where we go?"

"Must be because I'm so cool." I said. 😎

I can break into those like the kool aid man. Just never ever say 'no' to anything. Ruin your life. Be the clown 😎

Oh, like starting a new job. Such fun!

The important question here is “for how long?”

Because like.. a day sure. A week maybe. Longer? lol fuck no.
