This is not really an introduction, but I couldn't find any better place for it.

I've been thinking about what I've been doing here, and what I might like to do. I'm thinking that probably what keeps me coming back is not having any social life offline. What I've been doing is mostly testing some new ideas, and along with that, sometimes trying to understand other what other people are thinking and help them understand what I'm thinking if they want to. Now I think that I would like to have discussions with people, if I can find anyone to do it with, about what people can do together, online and offline, for more people to learn better how to live the best life they can. That could be about whatever they think is the good news of Jesus, or about some other religious or nonreligious practices.

I don't either.

Does it bother you?

That seems like a very good reason to be here.

I hope you find the discussions you're looking for!

Just my personal, subjective and possibly wrong opinion.

I was just curious as to why you think it would be good for you, given the idea that you don't think or feel bad about it.

And I'm glad it doesn't bother you... It stinks to want a social life, and not have it available.

Do you not think that a need for social life is a part of human nature?

I don't know as if human nature is something that's uniform across the board. I think the vast majority of people require a social life to be happy. But, there's a few out there for whom being social is a great burden...

Oh I see. By "social life," I don't mean necessarily what that might mean to most people. I mean, having more than one person that I spend time with, doing things that we both like doing.
 
Do you want to discuss why you believe you do not have a social life?
 
Thank you. People might be reading too much into it maybe. It just means that currently, off-line, I only have one person that I’m spending time with doing things that we both like doing. I think that if I had more people like that, I would not be spending so much time online. That might even be a discoverable truth. :D
