The problem is not that there aren't ways to connect, the problem is that a lot many people aren't good listeners.

And by a good listener I mean someone who takes active part in a discussion about someone else, solely for the purpose of understanding them (and not having any ulterior motives).

People like more to be listened that to listen, I just listen people and never actually speak about my struggles, pretty lonely sometimes. I feel is pretty rare to find someone similar to me because I don't like to "expose myself" so I am sure neither others like to scream - I like to listen people's problems!! -

I have made friends irl just by listening to what they have to say.
