A friend actually did try to reach out to me after sensing that I'm troubled by something but I didn't open up because I am aware that this problem is inconsequential, insignificant, and minor. Man tells me his concerns of financial and relationship problems and I'm just upset that strangers didn't stroke my fragile ego enough in an an anime dressup game and felt left out. It's not even that he'd cringe about a hentai game I actually showed the Maker and asked his opinion on Ashura at one point. I just know that this problem is so small compared to the other stuff I'm also dealing with and yet it's something that affected me the most that I felt shy talking to him about it. He pestered me to open up for a few minutes and then soon got tired after I tried my hardest to redirect the topic onto something else.

Maybe I should've told him about it but anxiety got to me.
