The legit only person who doesn’t drain my battery is my bf,so I’d like to think it’s possible to find friends like that too, it’s just so rare. But I also have to make sure I catch it b4 it happens with my friends or I do get exhausted. For ex., Only doing 2 things of low-stim, not 4, like a movie and smoking at the park, I leave it at that. Even if I feel okay right then and want continue, it’ll suddenly hit me while out trying to get lunch and thrift after too. I want to but ik itll cost me.
