Hello everyone, I'm Wayward Sentinel. I recently1 realized I'm Demiromantic (or at least that's the label that's fit best so far, still definitely questioning/figuring it out), and I'm looking to connect with similar people (especially fellow introverts) to share stories and advice, figure out my future, and discover who I am and what I want and need.

I like both club/festival-style dance music and acoustic songs. I love all sorts of cuisines from Italian to Japanese to Mexican. I like quiet nights in, and playing video games with my friends.

1Ok I realized about 3-4 years ago now, but that was still well into my 20s and I haven't really thought about it much until very recently when it suddenly became a problem, but I don't want to make my first post into a sob story.

Welcome! I’m a big introvert as well, socialising is definitely not my forte lol.

I love mexican food too! Especially the super spicy stuff 🔥 got any specific meals you enjoy the most?

Hey there! I'm demiromantic too! I love to find others who can understand (this forum area is magicalllll) if you like acoustic I would recommend cavetown (definitely not my username) he makes really good music and is on the aroace spectrum and he's transmasc.

Welcome to the group :D

Absolutely same. Socializing and finding new friends is super not easy, but I'm trying to get better at it. I really gotta stop consolidating my friend groups. Makes it real complicated when things start to go sideways...

As for the meals, oh don't make me choose. They're all so good! I'm a bit of a weakling when it comes to spice though... I'm getting better (I used to not be able to tolerate basically any heat, but now I definitely enjoy some), but I cannot handle the truly spicy stuff. On that note though, have you heard of the chip brand Paqui? Depending on how hot you like it they might be too mild if anything, but they have some nice heat for my level of tolerance (I've only got up to the "Super Hot" Fiery Chile Limón).

Also as a full-time software engineer, I gotta say that's an awesome signature you have there.

Yay! Fellow demi! Thanks for the music recommendation, I'll check that out soon (as long as I don't forget; I swear my memory is a sieve... 😅). Do you have any particular song recommendations/favorites? If not I'll probably just start with the most listened ones.

Ooo, I haven’t heard of Paqui before! They look good, though I’m not sure if they’re sold in my country. I’ll have to check.

Also, thanks for the signature compliment 😎 I’m studying IT in college right now so I’ve been getting into computer jokes lol

Holy shit. Thank you for the artist recommendation. It's not 100% my style, but there are a few songs in there that I really needed to hear at the moment. Thank you. 💚

Based on what I've heard so far, I wonder if you'd like Alec Benjamin (TW: lots of very deep and serious topics, but extremely well written songs).

(By the way, two list tips! If you hold shift when pressing enter it will go to the next line without adding a blank space between them, and if you want a proper list there is a Bulleted List button just to the right of the emoji picker. I'm a bit of a power-user of basically all software I touch, so I figure this stuff out pretty quickly. 😅)

(within the first hour of stealing my mother's phone I learned how to use it better than she ever has)
