When you phrase it like that, it sounds ridiculous. But for me, social events are a lot like going to the gym. It makes me anxious, I don’t want to do it, I find reasons to avoid it, and then I’m glad I did it.
It’s hard working up the motivation. It’s easy to make excuses. Ultimately, it’s good for my physical and mental well-being to get out of the house and see people. Having another way to weasel out of it guilt-free would be a net negative on my life for sure.
This is a really interesting take because the majority of negative reactions to this post are “why would anyone need this just cancel you coward don’t you know how to talk to people” while yours is “yes I understand the point and would want to use this if it existed, therefore it must not exist because it’s bad for me” lmao

Yep same here. Taking the easy and lazy way every time will result in a lonely and unhealthy existence.
