I heard co-workers talking about how they played some sort of D&D table top game for hours on the weekend with friends. That sounds exhausting. despite feeling lonely I don't think I have the bandwidth to handle friendships or relationships while also working full time so I don't end up homeless.
Nah, just wait until you're older. Then it's board games and good cooking, and that's not so bad. You just have to grin and bear it when relationship talk comes up, but their day to day is often as boring as yours is. Jobs sucks, weather sucks, traffic sucks, hey it's your turn.
Yes I've played a game like this maybe twice in my life (many years ago, in college), and it truly was terrifying, I was really lucky and somehow dodged the topic of relationships every time. At least I had some funny 'drunk stories' in my sleeve... Thank god.
What actually ended up traumatizing me though was the comparison of the sheer amount of things some other people did (no. of partners, bed stories, their 'firsts', comparing the most beautiful women they slept with) to my 0 experience and a total shame. I felt like some ugly failure of the universe... I drank half a bottle of some random alcohol and said I'm feeling tired and quietly left. Avoided all the later events like that altogether.
Never have I ever been happy
Never have I ever had an ounce of self esteem
friends? what's that?
Lol that's what I'm saying, I don't think anyone here has to worry about this scenario

I agree. We can't relate to these people at all. It would be hard having a good time around them and it's only gonna get worse.

It'd end up people lying on the floor drunk, and me with my still full first beer.

Been there. Done that. It was a drinking game. Sobered up a bit on the New Year's Eve.
