  • i have a lot of fun playing valorant, but in order to preserve my sanity i immediately mute everyone and disable text chat whenever i join a game. if something is important, they can ping it. it makes me sad, because in my experience the valorant lobbies are a coin toss between the sweetest and goofiest people you’ll ever meet online, or the most unhinged sociopathic 16-year-olds letting their life frustrations out on you.

    i want to meet those sweet and goofy people and have fun with them, but i just can’t be bothered sitting through 3/4 lobbies of toxicity until i find one with mentally stable people







  • there is no shame in liking games, but it’s a pretty big turn-off for many people because of negative stereotypes (especially in your age range). do yourself a favor and find another hobby to talk to people about (music, films, exercise), and then once you’re close with them and they won’t immediately discard you based on those stereotypes, you can start to share that part of yourself
    OR you can keep being totally upfront about gaming being your #1 hobby and hope that you’ll meet your soulmate who happens to share the exact same passion. either way, good luck :)
