We met at work and have a lot in common. But I’m an awkward s.o.b. and have been so hesitant to talk despite wanting to talk really bad. Anyways, we still managed to talk over the next few months at work and then exchanged numbers (she initiated). Now I texted her and we had a nice chat and she said she wanted to keep chatting! It genuinely feels so good ngl.
Nice. I went out to karaoke recently with a coworker and even dipped my toes into my unwavering support for the communist movement and he seems like a cool dude. You never know where you will find comrades and you usually only do if you just come right out and say it at some point. It also helps that I have tons of experience IRL organizing and agitating and I know how to carefully craft my words to get a read on how receptive someone might be to our goals and aims.
