If you don’t know or understand discount points feel free to shoot me a message and I can help you review estimate and see if can beat

But I’m in my mid 20s, and feel like I’m missing out on some friend bonding time. I suppose the answer is to just bond at different times of the day, and revolve my relationships around non going out environments.
