Is it too late to develop a social life in your mid 20s if you never had one prior? (slrpnk.net)

I never had a social life, either romantic or platonic, and I'm wondering if anyone else has gone from 0 social life to an active one past college. Like I wasted college just going to classes and I graduated already. Thoughts?

Too late? No way! Success depends a lot on your expectations and sense of self, so I would encourage you to be in therapy to get those straight. We all need therapy, but now would be a good time for you, before starting a new way of life.

But no way. You are perfectly fine.

Definitely get therapy, everyone should. Also don't avoid socializing while u work on yourself In therapy, dual path it!
