Because of reasons I've (m25) been studying very hard since young age and I must continue until 28 (graduation). The effort is so intense I don't have time and energy to spare, I'd like to cultivate new friendships but I have 0 idea on how to do so. Socializing drains my energy and takes a lot of time too, plus it feels a chore and I'm also bad at it. I'm not really interested in it tbh.
On the other hand i don't want to turn 27-28 and not having friends nor gf etc. Rationally it feels very wrong. I stopped "living" at like 14 y.o. since then it's been a hell of a grind with ups and down. I feel I'm wasting my youth but I don't really know what can i do about it.
Should I try pushing for some more social life risking to delay my graduation for some more years or just focus on my studies since I don't really car about anything else that much?
