New friends

the truth is everyone else is lonely too and scared to go out and say hello. my mom always used to say that you can just wait for friends to come around, you have to be the one to initiate the conversations or they never will happen. it feels like a lot of pressure, but when you really think about it, the worst thing that could happen is just no response. Just start saying hey. That’s how I ended up meeting my best friend. We were in a class together right before covid hit, and I just started talking to them. I always got so nervous walking up to that class Bc I was scared they wouldn’t want to say anything back, but they always did. Just saying hey and starting up convos can be so good. I promise.
