Thanks. What a stupid dork he is.

My stupid idiot friend says thanks. What a real ding dong

A friend of mine never uses UTC. What an idiot. Seriously, what a dumbass. Somone one should tell him what time that would be in EST. God, he's so dumb.

I have no problem connecting with people other than the fact that I avoid people

Brother, if that were the case I'm not sure you'd be posting on Lemmy looking for advice on how to connect with fellow homo sapiens. You'd be out there connecting with people. So there's the answer: Get out there and connect with people. You'll figure out who is worth your time and who isn't.

I studied humans

Are you an alien? Robot maybe? This whole thing reads as if you are are not human and experiencing emotions from outside of other people's perception. We all have emotions too, we know what it's like to be human. We don't need a lecture on ourselves. The way you write about other people is demeaning and off putting. Referring to potential friends or girlfriends as HUMANS is weird, dude. You write so confidently about how you seem to understand yourself and your emotions, but then don't understand you were nervous to speak to a girl about your emotions. Understand that just because you studied psychology, that doesn't mean you can treat yourself as a psychologist would.

human connections would increase my quality of life

Other people don't exist to increase YOUR quality of life. Friendship is not something where you wear a badge that says you are "friend-ready" and people line up to adore you. Relationships of all sort are based on mutual respect and admiration. Do the things you like and be genuinely nice, attentive, and understanding. You'll have no problem connecting with people.

Oh, they are, are they?

The power to add more diversity to the failing plot.

Meaning separate alternative platforms for each Google product

I know there's privacy issues that a lot of people here care about, but there's no alternative for me that has email, photo storage, calendar, notes, cloud drive, and maps.

I could do all those separately, I guess, but why would I?

What is the benefit of this?
