I've been playing chess since high school in the school club. I was never really that great at it, but I stuck with it anyway and managed to place second in a scholastic chess tournament. I've been playing chess regularly since I was 18. I play chess not to compete but to socialize and I'm not really a very competitive person when it comes to chess. I prefer light hearted games with the occasional tournament. I will most likely never achieve a title or anything close to it and I'm okay with that. I'm into the game for the players. I use it as a platform to communicate with others. So if your ever up for a friendly game drop me a line!
