I didn't care for the story and skipped everything in ARR, except the last set of cutscenes because friends insisted I watch. Heavensward is better because the storytelling is concise, things pick up quickly, and it feels more like classic Final Fantasy (80's and 90's) to me. Still, the fun didn't really start until I started doing raids, EX primals, and events with my FC.

Get thee to some harder content and new friends.

Most of the Internet, really. I'm grade-A creep bait and could be used as a decoy to catch predators, but I can't find a single actual unpleasant person in this game and that's made it a blast for meeting new people. The worst I've seen is a healer calling the tank "about as useful as herpes", which is pretty tame.
