There's a time limit on those things haha. Let me join in for maybe 30min at the most and then I'm completely drained and ready to bail

Literally me. I went out with a friend once and she invited her other friends. I wanted to die.

The regret we live with. Sigh.....😮‍💨

toqueehmedia.bsky.social•61 days ago

I no longer have fomo. I have FOBI. Fear of being invited.

pihlaedith.bsky.social•60 days ago

freezyc.de•61 days ago

Don’t believe the hype

memphisbelle1114.bsky.social•61 days ago

As you get older, you just want the opportunity to decline the invitation because you know you'll regret actually DOING the thing (especially if it involves a lot of other people)

matthewkeillor.bsky.social•61 days ago

I like the *idea* of being included, more than I like it in practice.

capernica.avoids.work•61 days ago

Same haha then I realize it’s too many people to be around

matthewkeillor.bsky.social•61 days ago

Yuppp lol, I learned a long time ago to always drive to whatever event on my own. That way I can always leave when I feel the need to without ruining things for someone else.

Learned this lesson after going to an event with friends in winter, and one of them was cold, so the heat was blasting, and they wouldn't turn it down even a little. Drove myself around after that.

this is CRUCIAL. i have given this tip to my adult kids as well (NA and hugely introverted) - be in control of your ability to travel! Then you can dip your toe in, enjoy some humans, and gtfo before you are damaged by the experience.

Perhaps we could gather together a network of introverted people to arrange small, chill social interactions.

Yup. A big part of my daily life’s challenges are the repercussions of me when I was briefly feeling more extroverted.

Every single time
