I’m sort of a book nerd, literature lover, and a writer. I really want to interact with and get to know male perspectives about reading novels and Literature, but I haven’t ever interacted with a guy. Even finding someone online is out of the option because I don’t prefer starting an interaction online.
Do so now.
I’m really not good at interacting online…and I am too introverted to talk to new people
That’s all right! You don’t know me and I don’t know you. What’s the worst that could happen? Give it a shot. Worst case scenario- we will waste our precious 10 minutes.
Okk…I might give it a try
So…I like (more like love) reading novels, and I write also…I also have an avid interest in literature…
What about you?
To be honest, I wasn’t good at writing poetry, but during the lockdown I started writing poetry and now I find it so good and calming. I have never been a sportsperson, but I do like to watch cricket, tennis and badminton.
That’s good to hear. What do write about ( other than poems) and regarding what did you want a male perspective?
I write about my experiences and about certain small details in my surroundings, that catch my eye.
Male perspective, as in, about books and literature. I haven’t met or talked with any guy who likes to read, so I don’t really know how men perceive reading and if they get the same happiness from getting immersed in fictional worlds.
Perhaps you haven’t met the right men then. I’m sure they will come around seeking you in the future ( I hope they do). Men too attach themselves with books and characters as women do. They feel the same passion and emotions that you feel while or after reading a novel/story. A lot of times avid and ardent readers are also people who introverted. So don’t expect to meet them in a club dancing like a male alpha.
Yes I understand that. I just want to really interact with someone and this online world seems so weird. I’m already an adult and I have never interacted with any men, with or without an interest in books. I know that I’m sounding too desperate, but I don’t want anything else but just a casual interaction. The only thing I’m worried about is that I won’t have enough experience interacting with men.
I can ask a few of my friends to talk to you. Let me know if you’re up for that.
Even though I’m apprehensive about it, I think I can try that.
Apprehension is good. It helps you stay cautious! But they are harmless. Again worst case scenario approach! Want to give it a shot?
Yes sure
Now the million dollar question. How do we take this forward?
What do you suggest?
Whatever you’re comfortable with. We can delete the info as soon as the other person reads it.
Is Tumblr an option? I can give you my id, and we can chat there
I don’t use that. I’m sorry. WhatsApp? I can share my number with you and delete it ASAP.
Well…I’m not comfortable conversing via WhatsApp…if you use any other platform such as SnapChat or Instagram and could give your id and delete it then?
Instagram works. Share your Id and delete it after I reply received. Cool?
Yes sure. Can you please share your id and once I’ve read it I’ll tell you and you can instantly delete it?
Got it.
You just gave lonely perverts an invitation lol
