You want candy?

In that case, I'm not sure you're missing anything and I'm not even sure you have a problem to solve here.

I understand better. I might relate, too.

I'm not the type to keep relationships "alive" by checking in, but at the same time, when someone re-enters my life after even years, it can be as though no time had passed. If I can help, I will. We can chat for minutes or hours. I'm happy to pick up where we left off.

I have the distinct impression that many other people don't operate this way. I do. Do you?

I have a big chosen family, including people who feel like children, and even grandchildren. I don't believe that a blood relation would make that any richer an experience for me.

And specifically what kind of "weirdo"? If you only meant that they are relatively uncommon, that's obviously true, but I suspect you mean something more significant than merely "there are fewer of them than cishet folks".

The same as any friendship: mutual support and love. What you're describing sounds like an acquaintance to me, not a friend, if conversations don't develop past small talk. Maybe that's what you're missing.

Check your privilege.

I wish you continued good luck in this regard.

I don't live in a shithole, so nothing.
