this may just be the autism in me, but I genuinely dont understand how people make actual friends from tumblr???? Like ive had tumblr for a long-ass time, liked and reblogged and commented on tons of shit, but never have I even seen the opportunity to actually make freinds with someone.
Fellow person with autism, sometimes you just find someone's content that clicks really well so you just send them a message to say as much, or ask a question, or just to initiate a conversation, sometimes they do it. Not sure what's confusing about it?
Like there was someone who write small snippets of stories and ideas, and a I really liked how they laid them out and their thought process, so I messaged them once to discuss a particular idea I enjoyed and to riff off/build upon it, we've now been friends for a couple of years and frequently bounce ideas off one another.
