Friendless (G)

being careful about the company you keep doesn't keep you from getting hurt. when you can't keep a friend for more than a yr. at best because you were just a fill in between the downtime with their other friends, u can't know that ahead of time. it's just easier to walk away rather than get it started in the first place.

Oh I don't know, to quote the bard ..tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

I'm mainly looking for friends plus moving soon so have to start from scratch again online friends seem to be easier

hey everyone how are you all

I'm not sure what to say been skimming through messages in this topic cause I think friends can be soo different so too with situations and such, it can be a bit confusing to keep track with things on my mind

As a person who had to move a lot (26 addresses in 26 years), it took a long time to get used to starting all over again. Online friends are "portable," so to speak...accessible, no mater where you are.

I love the idea of "portable friends " rather than 'cyber friends' or 'online friends' as if you lot not real , of course you are...

I'm sitting here with a cup of tea having a break from cleaning and interacting with you you I wouldn't have time for a physical meet up or sit down with a cup of coffee with some with someone, so you guys are perfect.

Don't recall being described as 'perfect' before....

Ive never had these close friendships that many talk about.


I cant say I have ever missed it.
Ive moved around, been busy with my life and always found that others want/ need more from me than I can or want to give and I find that I dont get that same support or warmth from them ..so I let them drift away.

But if you need it then you have to work at it. Do you have any special hobbies or is there something you would like to learn? Because sometimes joining a class or group is an easy way to meet people with a shared interest making it easier to make friends. After all you cant just wander up to someone on the street and say hey be my friend...

Once you have friends you have to be willing to invest in them . Listen to them, support but not judge, and nurture them like fragile plants..

I know I make it sound like hard work but thats how it feels for me..

So I hope you stick around here, use us for practice we are real people behind these keyboards ..we laugh and cry and we all support each other just as friends in the real world do..
