(no subject)

Name: Val

Age: 47

I mostly post about: Being Gen-X, Canadian, ramblings of day to day life, my mental health, sometimes the state of the world (though I try to keep that to a minimum), what I'm currently reading, Nelson shenanigans (my cat)

My hobbies are: I knit and crochet; writing, watching movies/television (mostly drama and British telly), reading, 'cozy' colouring with alcohol markers, music (love to listen to new things)

My fandoms are: I used to be very into fandoms 10 or so years ago, but not so much anymore. It can be exhausting.

I'm looking to meet people who: above all, are kind. 20+ of age, and have some interests in common. It would be ideal if you like to comment on entries.

My posting schedule tends to be: aiming for daily, but likely a few times a week. I'm journaling again at the suggestion of my therapist.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: the usual: racism, anti-LGBTQIA+. I used to be a big Harry Potter fan, but no longer and I generally stay away from those who still embrace the fandom, JKR, and the books/movies.

Before adding me, you should know: I'm a very kind and sensitive person and try to be thoughtful and respectful when commenting on others entries, so I hope to receive the same in return. Also, I have an odd sense of humour and I use "LOL" and "<3" a lot.

You seem like an interesting human! I don't know if we'd gel well as moots but I wanted to mention that

You sound nice and my sort of person. I think I'm kind, I try to be anyway. I have acat, I like British telly, but then I am a Brit :) I'll add you, add me back if you think we'd fit :)

Fellow knitter and crocheter, and also coming back to explore journalling. I try to leave comments and also enjoy comments on my own posts. Will add you and feel free to add me back if you like. :)

Hello!

Gen Xer here as well! I'm in the US & I post about things going on in my life, usually involving my family. I enjoy reading & playing a handful of games on my phone.

It sounds as if we have similar attributes :) I too frequently use keyboard emojis & lol!

Would you like to try mutually adding?

Hello Val, I would love to try being friends with you :)
My name is Tina, I am 37 and live in Germany, also have a cat and love reading and music. I know how you feel about HP too - used to be a big fan myself but it's just been ruined for me by what JKR turned out to be. It does make me sad sometimes thinking about it, I admit that, but I'm definitely not participating in any kind of fandom or the like.

I definitely try my best to be kind and thoughtful and am sensitive myself so that should (hopefully) be no problem. If I ever hurt you, you'd be more than welcome to tell me so - and lastly, odd sense of humour is the best :D

Friends?
