Do people actually come on here to socialize?

Very rarely do conversations go beyond surface level.

Not to say there aren’t deeper conversations to be had but some people have lives filled with all kinds of problems and surface level, lightness and laughter can be a welcome relief. I know it has been for me quite often.

@OlderSometimesWiser Quite right. Sometimes a bit of light relief is just the tonic you need. The secret of surviving this crazy, mixed-up world is not to take life too seriously. 👌

I'm sure they do. I discovered this site by chance, but it's quite fun and most people on it seem pretty friendly. I guess everyone is different: it depends what they're looking for.
Not everyone has the same definition of "socializing". It needn’t be the same as yours; people take what they need. The site is a good fit for some, less so for others.

Yeah, that's what sites like this are for. 😅 But if you're new it takes time before you start feeling welcome. At least that was my experience.

I frequently have chats which last several hours. I've always been highly inquisitive by nature - and on my side there's nothing which is taboo. I'm the proverbial open book - largely because the site is anonymous

I have made some very good friends on here and we chat a lot or they comment on my post.
Indeed, that's most of the Internet though. It's always just surface-level; however, here and there you meet someone you can get deeper with. It's more rare ... but you'll know when you know.
You'll find some are here for a few laughs and light conversation. There are some who want to socialize but beware of what is meant by 'socialize'.

@onrealityofdreams oh I'm very well aware
@iamisa That's good to hear.

As they say, it takes two to tango, no point blaming one side.
Because you too are part of the people who make up this site.

Have you tried initiating any conversation?

Over the years, surface level encounters have developed into really good friendships

It all has to start somewhere
iamisa · 18-21, F
@AllAboutLaffs yes but Im saying that rarely happens
AllAboutLaffs · 80-89, M
@iamisa Well ... this is social media .... fast moving ... distracting .... and fly-by encounters

But you may click with someone along the way .... be patient and in the meantime enjoy the site

Agreed!

Some do, some don't, then there's all of us in the middle. It happens randomly, not often but does happen anyway every now and then.
Mordechai · 31-35, M
I've made good friends here, it's just super rare
Pretzel · 70-79, M

I come here to talk to you but you're like never here! So I wait and then by the time you come online I've forgotten what I was gonna say 🤔

That's what I notice
Banter is my reason for being here.

But most take themselves far too seriously to be of any use.

You don't have to have deep heart to heart conversations to socialize

@pdockal I mean I feel like I put in a lot and get nothing from this place the vast majority of the time
pdockal · 56-60, M
@iamisa

Sounds like life in general
But yes it can be one sided
Until you find a friend or two
specman · 51-55, MVIP
Never share too much on the web! You never know who you are talking to.
FreestyleArt · 36-40, M
@specman same. I just go simple like Hello. How are you? Okay good bye. I always do that.
specman · 51-55, MVIP
@FreestyleArt that’s smart
FreestyleArt · 36-40, M
@specman I been learning not only humans, but what some are capable of, when it comes to control of Digital and Technology. Dodging every corners of traps when it comes to censorship and spywares. I've been learning a lot from every back doors, thanks to the ones who experience them.
Some do some dont
FreestyleArt · 36-40, M
Life has changed. There's really nothing to talk about these days.
Manofoz · 61-69, M
