!!**I do NOT have a social media account to talk to anybody on, nor do I have a phone with any apps I could use. I only have Discord, and give it out VERY sparingly. Please don't ask me to go offsite right away! Talk to me a while first.**!!

There's so much to add, where do I even start? My name is Lily, I'm 31 as of creating this profile, and I came here because I'd really like to make some more friends to talk to. Obviously the picture isn't really of me...but my 'anime self', if you will. I'd rather not have a picture of me available for everyone to see.

I'm really only looking for online friends at the moment. I do suffer from anxiety and depression, as well as having high-functioning autism. I get stressed going out in public places, or when needing to socialize, so I tend to stay home and keep to myself. Even though I have a good relationship with my family, I feel as though it isn't enough sometimes and I have recently been finding myself so lonely that it's feeding into my depression and making things much worse.

I can be awkward and shy at first, but I do open up and get talking fairly quick if I'm given something to work with. (One-liners, such as "Hi." are no good for conversation starters!) I do love animals, and find that if you bring up the topic of pets or animals...I -will- talk your ear off. So, you've been warned!

I might not sound my age sometimes. I think my autism caused me to mature much slower mentally, and even though I'm an adult, and understand a fair amount...I still haven't quite let go of favorite things from being a child, such as plush toys or my love of anything Disney.

I enjoy writing and have done some text-based roleplays, but it's never easy finding a good partner for those. And it's only fun when the mood strikes me. I also love playing games, although most aren't wildly popular. (Petz 4 being the most unheard-of game I enjoy, despite its' simplicity.) Some more popular favorites are Pokemon, The Sims 4, Skyrim, and Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley type games.

Regarding a lower-down question involving politics, I am not able to understand them well enough to know how to even talk about them.

Another note, I'm in Pacific Standard Time, and am usually only online between 6pm-4am. Somewhere in that range. It varies. But I'm usually too busy during the day to be online then, and I'm more of a night owl anyway, so I'm always around at night.

Am I crazy, or is the "Food Choices" section at the bottom of my profile NOT an option to edit? I don't see that on the Edit Profile page anywhere, haha! But I love pizza! I'm also into chocolate...I always have a sweet tooth. I don't always need a lot, but I crave it like crazy at least daily.

I will probably add to this or tidy things up later. I literally have no idea what to add, so I just blurted out a few random things!

I'd say I'm really shy, but friendly once I get talking. I get nervous easily, so it's really hard for me to start a conversation.
Northern California is all I'll say.

I can't actually hold a job with my disability, so I'm receiving some help.
I don't even know what job I would want to have.
I love anything involving animals. Anything Disney. I love playing games whether it be on the computer or DS, or other consoles. I mainly love sim games, virtual pet games, adventure games, fantasy games...basically anything that isn't an 'idle' mobile game, or a gore/shooter type game.

I also like listening to spooky stories on Youtube, or watching gameplays. I like watching movies, mainly Disney, but I love action/adventure movies too, as well as fantasy and sometimes some spooky ghost movies.
Men, Women, Other
Interests
Friends from around the world

Friends with pets
Watch Youtube or play a game. I like to chat with my friends too, if anybody's ever around.
I prefer small groups, or 1 on 1
Pen pal or email pal, Just talk. gossip. catch up, Hang out
I don't actually have one.
The only places I've ever been are Hawaii (grew up there), Oklahoma (lived there for one year) and California. (Born there, then returned in my teens.)
Social Life
Due to rescuing cats from a feral colony in a bad place, in a place where nobody would take in these cats, even shelters...we have a number of cats, and currently two dogs.
None, unless you count "fur babies"! (Pets)
In a relationship
Nothing at the moment, my books are in storage. But, silly as it sounds, I was mainly reading some of the older Nancy Drew books. I'd only read a couple as a kid, lost interest in reading for a few years, then semi-recently decided to start again!
I like mainly some pop, lighter rock, less banjo-style country (haha) and...very selective types of uh...dubstep, chillstep, synthwave...stuff of that nature. Some of it is too much for me, but the good ones I can find on Youtube are currently my favorite kind of music.
Two words: Pizza + beer
Night Owl - I like to stay up late!
Boring, I know, but I really only drink water, haha!
I don't drink

Recovering from a traumatic year...sorry if I'm not too chatty or active.
