the desire for emotional intimacy, the ability to let the shields down, is fundamental and being reminded of the impossibility of doing that (without very negative consequences anyway) is painful. like salting a wound.

Indeed. But I partly feel like the issue is my feeling that no irl activities "fit", so I fail to attend a group event regularly (which begets organic friendships) and fail to build deeper connections. Oops.

same tbh. though from hard-learned lessons I will say nothing will destroy an IRL friendship faster and more surely than going shields down around someone and letting them see your wounds. deeper IRL connections are good for a lot of things, but not for this.
