Has anyone else connected with another human?

[ManOfTheYear]

Wondering if this is a conceivable concept, as I've lived 30 years now and met ample people in my lifetime and have not found a single human that I can connect with. Has anyone else met a single other human that understands you and everything around them, that has no deer energy and can actually self reflect, cry, open arm, etc? You know the things that set us apart from animals. If you understand what I'm talking about you will also know that emotions are definitely a thing animals have as their behaviors are what that is, what separates humans from them is that humans can FEEL them, understands thats what that is and not create some stupid social system around avoiding that but accepting and fine tuning it so you can actually communicate with other people. Humans deny their biological nature and its creating a problem where everyone's to busy doing that than just being able to talk to me. About literally anything. Is anyone else seeing this or experienced actual connection with other human?


Like humans have literally lost their ability to express emotion? Anything outside the cordial is met with immediate run away. Why is everyone so absolutely terrified of talking to eachother?

I did. For a while. And then that person threw me away like I never mattered. Even if you find someone you connect to, there's nothing stopping them from lying to you about their side of the connection.

we've replaced friends with therapists because of corporate language surrounding boundaries convincing us that empathy is a weakness and inappropriate to expect from people you aren't paying to simulate that emotion and connection for you lolol. everything is bland and filtered or immature and emotionally immature.

watch someone quote me and start with "wellll actually it depends like.."
we've also lost the concept of nuance.

I had one person in my life who was like that. He was in bad car accident he had to learn how to walk and talk all over again but it changed something in him. They say that a brain produces like 7 chemicals on it own. Lithium dopamine, serotonin, I'm not sure about the rest but the accident made his brain stop producing 3 of the 7 chemicals. My brain was fubar from birth. But he and I were for some odd reason the best of friends. I never had anybody I was that close to that honest with and that truly got me. He would walk in a room and smile and the whole room would light up. He was a Cherokee Indian and you talk about a pretty boy. We could go into a bar Friday night and every female would walk up to him and start talking to him. Which lucky for me turned into us. Lol it was crazy how much insight he had in me he knew me better than anybody else ever did. Unfortunately he was another person who lost the war on drugs. I miss him terribly. The only other one who came remotely close was my girlfriend for 23 years. She was bipolar as hell!! From a chemical imbalance in her brain. Lithium. But she also got me and I got her. I guess maybe the brain chemicals or lack of does something to the part of the brain that connects to other people. Who knows they're both gone now and I miss them both.
