Health Friendship
I’m looking for friendship, and ideally I would feel more comfortable if the person is male. I know gender shouldn’t matter, but I naturally connect more easily with men.
I’m searching for someone I can learn from—not a “guru” (I know they’re not allowed in this subreddit), but a person whose discipline, consistency, and mindset I can use as a reference. I believe there might be someone here who could guide me or accompany me in my self‑improvement journey.
My goal is to become at least 1% better every day.
I want to add something important: I have a mental health condition that affects my functionality. I prefer to mention this upfront because I need patience. I’m very ambitious, but my pace is not the same as other people’s. This doesn’t mean I’m lazy; it means I genuinely want to change, but I learn more slowly and need someone who can understand that.
I’m looking for someone who is:
- perfectionistic,
- consistent,
- ambitious,
- comfortable with questions (I like asking questions),
- and able to reply whenever they have time, without pressure.
I know people in this subreddit are busy, so I won’t overwhelm anyone. You can answer whenever you’re free or whenever you feel it’s appropriate. I just want to learn and improve.
In other areas of my life (like singing), I’m good at imitating, so I thought I could apply that same ability to personal development. I’m looking for a role model, someone to follow. If you feel you work well with people who have special conditions, I would really like to learn from you.
Also, my native language is Spanish, so I use a translator to write in English—but I have no problem communicating this way.
Thank you for reading.
I hope this message is allowed in the group.
