New update on my Love Quest. I spent about 4 hours talking to a girl I met online last week over Discord. Sadly she lives in another state, so I doubt anything will come of it, but when I told her I'd have asked her out if we'd met IRL, she was really positive about it, so I feel pretty good about my ability to talk to the ladies (I just don't know how to meet them IRL).
Which means I have made more progress in a few months than stencilbits has in years. I'll let you know if any new updates happen. It's still neck-and-neck!
