Thank you again to GlassesUSA.com for sponsoring today's video!
Yep, I realized I don't really have a life outside of work at all... so in this video I'm trying to change that by getting out of my new york city apartment, meeting new people, volunteering, and pushing through the awkardness that is small talk. Making friends in your 30's is so much more complicated than when I was younger lol. Progress not perfection!

I would guess 23 to 25. You do NOT look 30....let ALONE 32. ❤
Any good Italian bakery?
Hi friends!! Anyone else struggling with their social life? lol. (Side note, it's snowing in NYC today. So cozy! Stay safe out there!)
Yes 😅 love staying cozy indoors! Putting yourself out there is a struggle sometimes!
This is day 8 not leaving my apartment due to the ice storm in Portland. Cabin fever is real!! I would give anything to see one of my friends or family in person right now.
omg that's awful! I hope it melts soon🥺@@delilah8476
In tennessee we are snowed in as well day 5 not leaving the house 😢 love your videos by the way i look forward to them!
Yes! I love my life, but seeing friends in person is rare these days. I'm in my mid-thirties and live in the suburbs of a large city with my partner & his daughters. I mostly work from home and have autoimmune conditions & chronic pain that make it difficult to spend extra time in the city to socialize with friends. My plan is to try to make friends in our community in 2024 ✨ Looking forward to watching your video on my lunch break - your channel is relatable and comforting! Have an awesome day, Chelsea 😊
As a fellow introvert i felt this video to my core lol!! Im also trying to plant my own seeds and establish a friend group after moving to a completely new area, its tough but when its good its so fulfilling. Even when its just a once a month catch up its just nice to have people to confide in!
Yes, agree 100%. When you find people who make the investment to meet up once a month to continue to do life with you - those friends are gold. I think a lot of introverts understand this and are willing to put their energy into friendships with real reciprocity.
A lot of my friendships faded in my 20s, and now, in my 40s, my friendships exist almost solely online. I have one friend in the town where I live (I've known her since childhood, and we just happen to live near each other now), and in the 3 years I've lived here, we've gotten together once. I've never even met her husband and kids. My partner and I have been together for over 25 years, so we're each other's social lives, pretty much. We see my family sometimes, but it's mostly just the two of us all day every day. I love him and I love being with him all the time, but I'm missing that connection with other women that I used to have. ❤️
Hugs💜
Your comment is so relatable. I’m 40 in April and I’ve been with my husband since 2001, so like you, my husband is my social life (we get on well so it’s nice to spend time together). As an introvert I do keep myself to myself but I do feel like I miss having other like minded people to socialise with from time to time. Perhaps I should make that my goal this year 😊
This is so real. Thank you for sharing your story! Online friendships are wonderful 💖
My life...😅
I think once you hit 30 it becomes more difficult to find new friends. But when you do post 20’s, you really know the value and know they are so special. I also think that post 30 your friends automatically default to the FaceTime life 😂 and thank God for that technology! I have found that the Marco Polo app has been a life saver in keeping up relationships with my friends from all over. I love catching up in long video messages to one another. There is something to be said about picking up right where you left off without the goodbyes or I’ll see you laters. I cherish those relationships.
How did you get to be so wise at 32?!! I'm a 60 year-old woman and I'm learning so much from you. Also, your friend's apartment is gorgeous!
Why do we 60 year old connect with Chelsea? It’s like having a daughter on TH-cam.
Yesss!! I just turned 60 last month and really enjoy Chelsea’s video-my daughter is 33, so maybe that’s why 😊
I'm almost there too, with kids early 30s/late 20s. I'm sure that's part of the reason, but also, Chelsea is building her life and I feel like I"m rebuilding mine after raising kids and a divorce. And hey, I still feel young! 😃
I think she reminds me of who I was at 32, I miss that person, but I also love who I am today ❤
I love that. Wisdom and knowledge has no age limit. There’s always new insight to learn
As a textbook avoidant I have no illusions of developing a social life. The cost of overwhelming anxiety is just too much.
Amen

The more you avoid the harder it is sadly
Two introverts just volunteering and living their quiet lives: that's how I met my husband of 12 years. I also have a few good friends from that same volunteering gig. It's a no pressure way of getting to know people. And for every person you meet volunteering puts you in touch with their people. Chances are they are like-minded if you're roaming in the same circles.
I’m actually transitioning from the few friendships I had and looking for more stable friends. I used to be a party animal so I’ve realized those friends are fun but don’t contribute to have mental stability.
I have a rule that every two weeks I get dinner with a friend and it can’t be the same friend as last time. It’s forced me to be much better about staying in touch
Low Maintenance Friends = High Value Friends. PS Great to see the voluntary work. I do befriending here in Winchester, UK with elderly. One lady, Sue, has become such a firm friend. She's wise, humble and has lived such a colourful, meaningful life. She worked for a charity with trafficked women for years in London. Her wisdom and insight is so valuable. Sadly she's housebound now but has a very very positive outlook. Friendship can happen anywhere. x
Ooh i like that saying- low maintenance friends = high value friends 😊👍🏻
@@MandyBarry My closest friends and I really truly believe this. Its just like wearing a comfortable old sweater. It just fits. No drama, no toxicity, just kindness, fun and support for each other. We came up with that saying when saying how lucky we are! :)
Love your sponsor blurbs. Quite clever and not obnoxious to watch.
I appreciate this! Thank you 🙏🏻
it's so interesting the way things have shifted, like it's way more common now for women to be unmarried into their 30s and we're all just trying to find community in new ways. It's pretty cool, there needs to be some way for all of us to find each other!
I'm quite a bit older than you but can really relate to this. It is effortless when you are college age-I didn't have to "work" for friendships; they just automatically happened. I was never deprived of being with other people. I held onto many of those friendships and even though we are still friends after all of these years, I rarely see them. I literally just lost my best friend of almost 40 years on Wednesday. She's really the only person who I did things with. It gets harder, Chelsea...I'm 50 and no one really wants to get together anymore. I gave up on trying a long time ago and just pretty much go with the flow day in and out. All you can do is "sow seeds." It's good that you recognized this now. Because nothing is as disappointing when you put in a lot of effort, and it bears no fruit. Love watching your vlogs; I love how real you are.
I'm so sorry you just lost your best friend... I relate very much to your post here and I'm 47. And you're exactly right - no one wants to get together anymore. No one tries to keep in touch. People just live their lives with those closest to them and real friendship seems to be obsolete. For a long time I was really down in the dumps about not making any new friends, but I also gave up a while ago. My best friend who moved back to Ireland no longer texts me, no Merry Christmas, No Happy New Year... nothing, so I stopped contacting her. It hurts more than I can express, but friendships can not be forced. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Big love to you ❤
@@marsol1979 💙💚🧡
I just saw your comment now, I am so sorry for the loss of your best friend. My heart goes out to you ❤
@@ChelseaCallahan thank you so much!💜
The pandemic really changed a lot of things for people. I'm an extrovert and even I don't see my friends that often anymore which really surprises me. I decided to go back to work just to get out of the house for social interaction. I love it!!
I myself am 32, awkward, and introverted. So I feel this on a spiritual level.
I’m also an introvert who genuinely loves solitude and spending time alone. Sometimes I feel like there is a lot of pressure to be social, when, at least in my opinion, the amount of social interaction one needs varies tremendously. That said, I do think it’s good to plant those seeds and work through how much social interaction you need to creating a fulfilling life. I do that when I find myself retreating too far into my own world.
this year I moved home to my parents at 33, 6 months of focus and discipline I cleared my credit card debt! Naturally friendships faded when I moved around but since I've been home I realised the people who matter will come to you! And also I was putting myself in debt for people who didn't give back the same energy and I wasted a lot of time! Since I have been home I've had the best non stop social life as I think the people who matter will naturally come to you, the best advice I've been given is "You have to be ok on your own" so I booked solo trips but ended up with friends tagging along (not complaining !) I also pre booked and paid some new fitness classes that were non refundable so I force myself out my comfort zone 🥵 ... you just never know who you could meet! 💜 Also snowing here in the UK 🌨👋xx
I have always had a small group of friends. I used to think it was because we moved so much so finding and building long-term friendships in new places was difficult. Then when I got older, I started thinking that I was just different and it was hard to find and maintain a large group of friends. I self-proclaimed myself to be socially awkward. It was easy to be likeable, talk to people, and get to people to want to hang out, yet I often found not wanting to and picking my own company that felt so nice.
After a lot of self-discovery throughout 20s and early 30s, ADHD diagnosis in mid 30s a lot of things fell in place and I realized that 1) I just really love being by myself and that is something to treasure since it gives you a stability and strength many cannot imagine, as they are terrified to be in their own company, and 2) it is not a requirement to have a ton of friends.
So instead I focused on being a better friend to the small group of close and dear friends I managed to gain over the years. I make more effort to reach out, to make plans and be in their lives. But I also learnt to balance it out and give myself plenty of alone time to allow myself to recharge to be social again.
You are definitely not alone in how you seem to look at friendships and connections. Don't feel the pressure to make and maintain lots of friends.
Me too, I definitely can get awkward in social situations. Although that mostly happens in big groups and I’ve never felt comfortable in bigger groups. Aside from this I thought there was something wrong with me, that perhaps I’m very socially awkward but I really think it’s 1) my adhd and 2) I just really like being alone too. When I was in college or when I used to work in an offfice, I always made friends very easily I just had a hard time keeping them but I think it’s mainly because I’m just so comfortable by myself. I’m in my early 30s and I’ve learned to accept it ❤
@@kaleyjoplinRAWRRyou literally described me in your comment
I love how making friends is a high priority for you. As a never married female who's 30's are way behind her, I wish I had made this a big priority in my 30's. Well played friend.
I have a very similar and opposite experience. I lived in NYC for about 10 years, and I recently had to move back home for family health stuff. I love all of my NYC/Boston/SF friends, but I realized I needed to have at least some casual friends to grab dinner with in my home town. I literally got a job waiting tables on the weekends and joined a semi-pro choir just to find some likeminded people. I now have three or four friends I can call on, and a handful of other friendly acquaintances, in a place I LITERALLY never wanted to be again. Makes it a little bit easier to be away from my chosen family. Making friends is hard, but if you join something you enjoy, you'll inevitably find your people again in the new place.
I've recently moved back to an area where I'm able to spend time with a lot of my friends from high school/childhood which has been SO nice but most of them are married with kids or expecting, buying a house, at the top of their careers, etc. So I've been wanting to make new friends/meet more people who are in a more similar "time of life" to myself (30s, single, just really starting a career, etc.). I recently found a local book club that meets up in some cool places in the heart of my city I'm exciting to start attending next month, and I've been looking into local craft stores to join groups and classes there with the hopes of making some new friends too! It's slow going and hella intimidating but I'm excited!
I still have close friends from grade school. Yes, grade school. And we are in our mid 50’s! Even though our lives went different directions, and to different cities, we still try to get together a couple of times a year. People come and go in your life, but your tried and true friends are forever. Glad you stay connected to yours. 💜
That is truly rare and super special!
Thank you so much for delivering meals to the elderly! My auntie lives on the upper east side and gets meals on wheels. Maybe you met her. It gives me such peace of mind to know that you and others are helping her since I cannot be there as often as I would like. Once again thank you and hello from Oregon!!❤
Awe I love this!! ❤️ maybe there’s a chance I did get to meet her!
Honestly, as a lifelong introvert and loner, I am perfectly content to stay right where I am. I can live vicariously through TH-cam creators like you and be happy. On that note I have to say that I'm really happy for you! It's great to see you grow and find yourself while remaining completely real. Thank you!
Chelsea, I love your videos. I was you once, living alone in New York. What changed my life was graduate school. I met so many people in school, incliding my husband. It is so rewarding, moving toward a goal that will change your career path.
I was born and raised in NYC and, for what it's worth, I am always curious about what brings people here and I love to hear about where they are from, etc. It may be 'small talk,' but I find it interesting. I'm sure other NY'ers do, too, so don't be shy!
I had a hard time making friends here, but, once I had kids just a few years ago, it became much easier to make mom friends. I've definitely met quite a few at the playground. haha. It is a bit weird because most of my current friends are transplants, and I'm never sure how long they'll actually stay in NY. At least 5 of them have already moved away in the past 5 years, so that part kind of sucks.
I am in a similar place in my life and to be honest I am not putting myself out there. This makes me inspired to make more of an effort. Being at home enjoying my own company is comfortable, but I also miss connections with friends. The pandemic really made me drift away from a lot of my friends.
I think it happened to a lot of us tbh. I'm probably 'somewhat' older than many viewers so I'm no longer especially into week-night socialising every week or packing weekends with social stuff but I really do need to get out more. Otherwise my life is just work- vegetate-work-vegetate! !
Hi Chelsea! Long time watcher - first time commenter.
Chiming in with my thoughts on social activity and connecting. I’m a voice actor in LA whose business really took off during the pandemic where we were all comfortable recording in our little home studios and not seeing people. Flash forward to 2022 and I felt so isolated and decided I needed to make a change. I started putting myself out there, connecting with people I met in zoom classes and being the first to make plans. Not my style at all but I had this thought - I could continue what I’m doing and hope people connect with me OR I could take the scary step and make it happen myself.
Happy to say now I have friends and a network that has done so much good for my mental health, sanity, and as a weird extra perk, my business. A lot of the people I connected with became genuine friends and we support each other chasing our dreams.
Sometimes you have to make the first move because you never know what connection can lead to a relationship you wouldn’t have wanted to miss out on.
Love your channel! Supporting and cheering for you just as I do my friends in LA.

Fellow introvert living away from home here 🙋♀️ I relate SO much and have to say, watching your videos makes me feel less alone and makes me proud that we are challenging ourselves and going outside of the usual comfort zone! 🤍
💖💖💖
I’m an introvert entering my mid-twenties, this vid made me feel happy and inspired. I find it a lot easier to keep long term friends than branching out to make new ones but that’s one of my goals for 2024. Enjoy the snow! ❤️ from WA
Hey Chelsea! I'm an introvert as well and my friend group has gotten smaller and smaller since college. Last year I joined 4 Meetup groups. I haven't made lifelong friends but have gotten the opportunity to hang out with cool people and visit places in my community.
I used to do MeetUp before the pandemic- need to have another look at it 😊
You are very self-aware! Planting seeds is something that I've started and stopped my entire life as a very introverted person. Yes, making friends in your 20s is worlds different than in your 30s and more so in your 40s and beyond for the reasons that you stated. I'm 47 and still struggle to "plant the seeds" without expectation - perhaps I put too much pressure on myself, and if a connection or friendship doesn't manifest, I get down in the dumps and give up. It's a vicious cycle. The friendships I had in my 20s became extinct long ago. Same with friends from my 30s. But, you are very wise, and you are doing exactly what you think you should do, and that's all that matters. Friendships are always a 2-way street, and if you're not getting back what you're putting into a friendship (or any relationship), it cannot last. I've learned that the hard way too many times.💔 And your glasses are lovely - us glasses-wearing women are HOT!!!! 🤣💚
Making friends at any age is challenging but can happen. I somehow arrived at 60, divorced, no children and living in a different state than my youth. Most friends from my youth scattered around the world literally I decided that 2020 I was going to put myself out there - well we all know what happened. Fast forward to today, I have joined Meetup and some Facebook groups for elders and travel minded ladies From this I have made local friends and am building relationships I find that their stories are similar - life changes, estrangements and/or inertia. It is never too late
This is such a good message. I have friends who lately we haven’t talked much too. Not because we’re in a bad situation, but just because we’ve both been busy with our own lives. And this video kinda just reminds me that this sort of thing is normal in friendships
What an interesting video. I’m married and a grandma but I so enjoyed hearing how you are getting out more and making connections, no matter how brief, with all kinds of people. You seem much happier for doing it, so I hope you keep it up. I also love seeing you out and about in NYC and that tea shop looked absolutely charming. Have a great weekend and week ahead! 😊
For me I lost connections with friends as I was raising my sons. The hard lesson I have learned that kids grow up and are going to start living their lives and I am alone. It's really hard meeting friends in my 50's. You are really inspiring me.❤
Everything has changed so much for me since lockdown. Before then I was an all out extrovert and now I see myself as an extroverted introvert. I can only deal with people in small doses and I can no longer stand crowds of people. Some friendships have fallen by the wayside but the ones that count are still there. It’s harder to maintain our friendships as we get older as we’re so busy and pulled in so many directions.
Those “don’t talk all the time but pick up right where we left off when we’re together” types of friendships are my absolute favorites. I’m super introverted so don’t usually “need” (or even want as harsh at that sounds) constant communication no matter how much I love the person, so I just don’t usually think to reach out unless I have something specific to talk to someone about. My best friend and I have that type of relationship and it works so well for us, like we can go months without talking and most of our text conversations are just planning when and where we’re gonna hang out, but neither of us ever has to worry if the other is mad or anything like that, and when we’re together it’s pretty much exactly like it was when we were living together (we actually met when we were randomly paired as roommates in our college dorm and got to be really good friends) main difference is now we usually have a couple months’ worth of happenings to catch each other up on rather than just the happenings of that day and an adorable toddler running around. I think that’s the hard part of making new friends for me, is that stress of thinking “are they gonna think I hate them if I don’t text them everyday?”
I have worried about this before and found I was spending my life saying “sorry I haven’t messaged/contacted you” all the time but I am trying to remember now it is a two way street as the guilt I was feeling was getting me down so much.
Such an awesome video! Love it!
Hi Chelsea! I have no social life, and I'm more than okay with that!! For the most part, I just prefer my own company, and being in my own space.
a very much needed video ❤ thank you ❤
enjoying your cool and relaxing social life vlog so much! ❤❤
Thank you! I really needed this video today 😊
Loving your videos Chelsea! ❤
I love this. Thank you for sharing this journey with us
Thank you for this video! I got a lot out of it and am going to watch it again later. You are so inspiring!
I so needed to hear this vlog today. Thank you Chelsea!
Loved the video and your glasses!
I’m so thankful for this video! One of my goals for this year is to find my people. As an introvert, it’s hard to find the desire to make plans and keep them with other people. But I also recognize that we are not meant to do life alone. It’s tough to make and keep friends, but your video reminds me that i’m not alone ❤
love your videos! I have been watching your videos for months now and by far you have shown a realistic views about nyc.
I love that you're volunteering! You look spectacular in glasses,so cool
Hi, so glad things are looking up for you!
I was just telling one of my gfs who’s a proper extrovert that we introverts sometimes socialise on TH-cam because we believe strongly that creators are our friends that we have chosen very carefully.
We laughed, but she didn’t realise I was kinda serious about it. 🥲🥲
Same !!!
I feel this!!!! wow that’s such a good point. glad that you are here 🥹
Occasionally someone I follow on TH-cam talks about someone coming up to them and saying that they are a subscriber. Some like it some don't. But honestly I feel like I know some of these people so well. It would be hard not to walk up and say hi, how are you doing?
What an incredible and inspiring video! Thank you Chelsea, always love your videos, keep it up!
I keep in touch with my friends via phone, text, dinner dates & cocktail nights. I am lucky enough to have 2 of my besties from High School. It takes work to nurture those friendships. Sometimes it is a long time in between meet ups because we are all busy. I still reach out to check in with them & make future plans for meet ups. This is great for your mental health & happiness!!!
Loved this x
Love your vlogs❤
"I have lost the friends I needed losing, found others on the way" From the song Caledonia by Dougie McLean.
Having come to the ripe old age of 62 and having lived in several countries, it is what happens.
With some friends of 'years gone by', you can pick right up where you've left off. With others, they have a life that's gone in a totally different direction and also incompatible with to where I am now. We've got friends (and acquaintances) of all ages.
Sometimes you meet new people and there is a click straight away, other times, you just know it will never develop in anything more than a friendly (or polite) hello and goodbye.
What I have found out though through the years, is that you need your friends to be on a same-ish wavelength as yourself. Be it job related, political (rather important), creativity, hobbies... a same outlook on life.
What you are doing with the charity volunteering is fantastic. I bet, once you have been a few more times, there will be people that you have click with. Invite some of your new found acquaintances over for coffee or tea at your place, and see where it leads.
oh Chel, I love your work , love you talking about serious themes.❤
thank’ you for your words ❤ this video resonated so much to me
This felt like a video essay, loved the shots of the street and the tea shop. Super relevant topic too.
Thanks for the awesome honest and heartwarming content, Chelsea!
I always enjoy hanging out with you. You make my heart smile 😊❤️🇸🇪
Love that you are bringing us while you volunteer! Also, yay for socializing with friends. 😊
Love the new glasses Chelsea 🤓 great to see you so happy and socialising more. 😍
Wow I got chills when you said you knew each others hometowns!!
I live in Greenpoint so I am close to you! I very much relate to this as the pandemic really changed things for me- I now work from home and I pretty much hang out with my dog and my sister who is also my roommate. I have been in NYC for 14 years and during this time almost all of my friends here have moved away. Most days I enjoy the solitude but I feel like I need to try and go make some more friends as it really makes life better.
You are so good at your sponsorships!
i like this video format. nice work! youre the best!
Well well. Hi Chelsea!!! What a great Friday, huh!!! So happy watching todays video. Hoping your doing good about mental health. ❤️🙌🏻🥹
This was such a cutie little video!!!! It was so nice to see you smiling and happy. I can totally relate to changing how friendships work as you age and life situations change. It can be hard. Have a great week and I look forward to your next video 😊😊
I love your vlogs Chelsea 😍❤️
I loved this blog. Inspiring.
I love that you give props to the city. Sometimes we want to try some of those places. 💖
It always great when you post,have a great weekend Chelsea greetings from Stockholm Sweden
Your new glasses are great on you ! Your friend’s apartment is so pretty, too ! I enjoy your videos. 😊
I love being an introvert myself :) Love winter, love self care :) Great videos as always !
Really enjoyed the video. As an aside, those glasses really suit you! I just bought new glasses for myself recently so I know it can be difficult to find the right pair.
Hi, it was so nice to see the happiness come out again! I hope you continue as much networking, and getting out of the house as much as you’re comfortable with! There is a definite change in your voice, body language and just over all feel of this video! I’m happy and proud of you, as I know this is not your usual but it sure seemed to help so very much!!!!!
Have a happy healthy new year, and I bet you are going to meet some wonderful new friends this year! ❤
Hi Chelsea! Great to see you so calm and happy :) I've been following you for a long time and it's great to see your progress! I do remember when you had like 5k subscribers and now 87k! You go girl! :)
Thank you for sharing this with me. As an introvert I have very few friends. I do have a handful of really close friendships, which is great. But, sometimes I do feel lonely. I often choose to stay home and isolate myself by choice. But sometimes I feel like this is not healthy and the best thing for my mental health. I also have a hard time in social situations with new people. My anxiety goes thru the roof.
Finding a new video from you is like a surprise meeting with a new friend. I always enjoy your videos. Glad you are having some fun.
What a great video Chelsea ❤. Your new glasses look fabulous on you. I love that you’re really giving us the blueprint for living in the present and undertaking small challenges every day. Being open to new experiences, cherishing old friends and making new connections is so important. I love the tea parlor you went to. I used to frequent Bosie Tea Parlor, in La Guardia Lane, just off Bleeker St. it’s closed now and I’m so pleased there’s another one. Your honesty and openness is still so refreshing. I love your work ❤❤❤
I LOVED THIS VIDEO. 💛
Yay new video!❤
Oh my gosh, Julies apartment is incredible!! I wish you both a happy and healthy 2024
Couldn’t hit the button fast enough ❤️❤️
Love the sunglasses! My sister lives in knappa Oregon, for over 30 years❤️
I used to be an extrovert, but then life happens, you see more, worked in the ER for many many years as a RN, saw a lot of the unfortunate evil in this world, every year seems I just went out less and less, definitely a introvert now and surprisingly, I’m good with it❤️
Great start to 2024!
Really enjoyed your chat today. I felt as if we were 2 friends talking over a cup of tea.
This video was awesome! Such an important topic. Would love to see more on socializing in your 30s. I just moved to a new city and WFH and struggle with this as well.
0:56 This shirt, glasses, hair combo works so well on you!
So glad your getting out there i only do once a month cost to much to gp out even coffee but i love being at home its fun
You’re awesome Chelsea!! ❤
You speak out of my soul! I feel alone a lot and thrive for a better social life. Sometimes it just gets too lonely
Liked the video, Chelsea! Great job on putting yourself out there..... it is not easy, I know from first hand experience.... but, you DID it!! Proud of you..... 🥰
I really like the glasses. You are right. They are in. I get cite frames to wear,at,zooms
It's interesting that people who are more introverted say they are trying to be less so and are making an effort to connect socially. You rarely see an extrovert saying they are trying to be less extroverted and making an effort to see less people. Introverted people get their energy from alone time and need it to recharge. Extroverted people get their energy from being with people and need that to feel healthy. One isn't better than the other. Chelsea, I love listening to you talk through all this. I'm sure you will find a balance that makes you happy. PS: The new glasses Rock!
Kudos for you being proactive in socializing. My friends and i have a phrase we use to tell eachother good job when we do something that is hard... it's "gut gemacht". in german it means good job or well done and sometimes you need someone to tell you good job
