This is a topic which has been a big issue in my life for the past years, so I wanted to start a thread for advice on making friendships, specifically for more nerdy trans people, any advice is welcome! <3, maintaining friendships is just as important as making them!, just don't drop the obvious like "join groups related to your interests", unless you want to make people aware of any.
bonus points if you have advice for people with strong sensory issues(that would be me ;-;) or social anxiety, who are unable to interact properly in groups
To add to the advice, I would only make plans you feel confident in being able to keep. I recently made the mistake of making plans with someone and wasn’t able to keep them due to some personal stuff. I plan on re-approaching this person again once my life settles down, but I can tell it’s dampened our friendship from the start.
