I entered the world in January 2008, so it was a pretty big year for me. Hard to believe it’s been 18 years already.

      Had a wife and friends. Still have a wife. But have zero close friends anymore. My best friend since third grade went hardcore maga. We went from talking at least 3x a week to haven’t spoken in 3 years now I think. Not that I haven’t tried, I do miss talking to him. We just have far to many experiences together that I hate Trump even more for our split. Wife and daughter are my only social circle. So I usually don’t have a bunch to talk about, pretty boring guy and lifestyle. Go to work, come home, nothing bro ever talk about. Really feel like we’re all in a rut.

      Moved to my wife’s small hometown haven’t really made any guy friends in the 10 years we’ve been here. Just work and come home. I have one somewhat close friend but we live an hour apart and just talk occasionally

    • curious about the “family overseas” thing

      Did you move abroad or did you family abandon you in your home country?

      Cuz that is a huge difference.

      I think because of the circumstances around my birth (illegaly born against One Child Policy) I would’ve been left behind in China if they couldn’t get the legal documents for me to leave…

      It’s terrifying to think about… would my parents actually abandon me and just focus on their 1st born child instead?
