First off, you need adult hobbies. Being a gamer is nice but you can't define yourself based on games and cartoons. Society expects you to "grow up" at some point. I've taken up tons of things I didn't have a natural interest in in order to boost my social presence and awareness. These things include: drinking wine, caring about classical music more than I want to, being more politically in-tune, and having an interest in pretty much anything people around me are doing. All the people in my life that I want to appeal to do not give a shit about video games. I've learned to adapt. You must as well. Do you know what this also does for me? Lets me talk about anything when it comes to a date.I don't know where you're from but video games and cartoons will put off anyone around here.
It's the best someone like me could hope for and I was glad to have it. It was really nice actually having someone to talk to and share with. I don't think you guys really understand what isolation is like. I've actually been really tempted these last few weeks to text said girl again in the hopes that she'd talk to me some more. I haven't, simply because I know what the answer will be.
As to the other part of your post...stop. Lots of us have been in isolation at some point or another. Its no reason to shit on yourself and allow someone to take advantage of you. Your mindset is your problem. I hope you realize that you're making yourself go in a circle.
