you definitely don't have to 'choose'. you can continue holding onto the railing that is fandom for a couple hours every night while you venture out into maybe, experimenting with local meet-ups in the day.
I first broke out into socializing via furmeets (yea) in my area, where i could just go with a pencil and a single friend and see who gravitates to me and who i gravitate to. I've made all my friends-- even my current roommates-- through fandom antics, furry and shippy. I don't know how else I'd make friends with my own interests who I actually like talking to. You don't even really want friends who you CAN'T sit around and babble with about your hobby, is my opinion. It's honestly not a waste at all that you've cultivated a hobby in your life-- many adults have not even managed that and are both lonely and bored with no passion and no way to entertain themselves alone. It's extremely good and vital TO your social life that you HAVE things you love, like fandom! The idea that fandom makes you a social blight is totally wrong. My friends and I all table at cons and discuss things as creatives and equals-- including the ones who don't really draw/create but enjoy and vibe with creatives. It's okay to hold onto your railing, anon! I promise! You don't need to jump into the abyss, having a lifeline to come back to after blunders or during early steps is only good for you.
