I've been exploring local EDM events for the past couple weeks. I've never been more social in my entire life. It's ironic, the more people you're around the more lonely you feel. Everyone, and I do mean everyone, is with someone. Either a group of friends or a partner. Also, I have a knack for getting hit on by other guys. Every time. Fucking hell.
I thought drinking and dancing at EDM events would help, but even then it's like I'm missing "something" that everyone seems to have. Is it some kind of tribal/mob mentality? If you're too different/unrelateable, then you're an outcast and have no place with anyone.
This actually turned me away from traveling. I attended a few cons, until I realized the worst part was leaving and seeing everyone having someone to go away with whilst I had the choice of leaving to drink alone or returning to the hotel alone. I was at fucking Oslo and Copenhagen, and the experience was the same. Beautiful cities, but so fucking lonely. Trying to find excuses to fill time, but at the end of the day you're beset by your own devils.

Honestly, "drugs" like that make me uneasy. Kinda like when I was nervous about getting drunk the first time I guess. I don't think I'll go this far. Maybe ego death? It feels like another form of escapism.
I know, complaining/whining, but there's no one to turn to. If you do, then it's like "I have issues I wanna cry about, pay attention to me". Kinda defeats the purpose, you know? If I'm gonna kms, then I'll do it quietly. Don't want people thinking I'm doing it for attention/clout.
