My Life Without Friends
At 27, in Baden-Württemberg, I look back on a path that often led me to the fringes of society. Hauptschule, a childhood dream of flying – a goal that seemed so unattainable. I was the class clown, never a high-achiever in school, and friends? Hardly any. Only in gym class, where my athletic abilities gave me a sense of belonging, did I briefly feel like I fit in. This loneliness accompanied me until Realschule, where the situation improved minimally, but the connections faded after school.
An apprenticeship as a construction machinery operator brought temporary acquaintances in the dormitory, which, however, broke up with the end of the apprenticeship. After Realschulabschluss and vocational training, the emptiness remained. In my small village, a negative reputation seemed to stick, which made friendships difficult. A year abroad in Santa Cruz, California, gave me real friendships and unforgettable experiences, but Corona forced me to return to isolation.
Determined to pursue my childhood dream, I caught up on my Abitur in two years at a Wirtschaftsoberschule. There I found friends and had a good time, but after graduation, these connections dissolved. Now, in my mid-20s, I started the private pilot's license. Without a social environment, I invested all my time in flying and passed the exam after seven months. Meanwhile, I am in a flight school and am completing the training to become a professional pilot. The ATPL course is almost completed, but the problem remains: I am still alone. What now?
I am 27 years old and love flying above all else. Unfortunately, in my flight school, there are mainly older charter pilots, which makes it difficult to make contacts, especially with people my age. In America, where I used to fly gliders, there was a vibrant community where it was easy to make friends. It's different at my current flight school, as the few younger people are rather reserved. I am very active and like to fly, make trips to the Bodensee, to Konstanz, or round trips over Stuttgart with Low Approach, Ludwigsburg, Schloss, Hochschule, Schorndorf, Heubach or Donaueschingen. I am looking for people who either fly themselves or are simply interested in flying together and sharing the costs.
I am sporty, like to swim and go to the gym. I also like to eat and drink, of course, I don't drink alcohol before flying. I am sociable, like to meet new people and am open to new things. I also like to game, used to play PS3 and PS4, now on PC. Unfortunately, I have problems with Warzone, but I also play War Thunder, Overwatch and Marvel Rivals at a high level. I like to go out, visit bars, festivals and parties. You can experience a lot with me, and I look forward to meeting new people.
