Most of the social gatherings in society take place at work, school, or at bars and clubs. Most of these places are too loud for my ears. It sets a limit, not only to the places I can visit to enjoy myself, but especially my social live. My world is a small one. I think a lot of you will relate to this.
I got T and H when I was 18. Since then I've never been able to get back into a relationship or establish new friendships. Simply because most of the places where these new connections are established I can't visit. Or because the person I want to connect with simply doesn't want to limit themselves to the boundaries of my ears. I'm pushing 25 now.
The only two good friendships I have left are the ones I've met before my T and H developed. I try my best to keep these friendships alive but it's getting harder and harder. I see them grow as a person. Not limited by anything. They get steady jobs, get married, have a kid, get their own place. These are things I can no longer relate with. It sets an awkward pressure on our friendship and it pushes us away.
I guess the only option I got left is to meet people who also have T or H. People who can relate to the social boundaries we life in. But then I come to realize: How?
How can I establish new relations outside of societies standards? Is there a place where people with T or H get together, physically? And if there isn't, why hasn't such a platform been created yet?
I'd really like to know what your comments are on these matters.
(Just for the record. I live in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. If any of you feel you are in the same position as I am and live close by, then feel free to send me a PM if you want to chat or meet up.)
