I know it's a long shot, but if any of you guys happen to come to Nebraska...let me know! You can crash at my place!! But the chances of any of you coming to Nebraska is pretty slim...not much exciting things here for travelers or tourists, unless you'd like to see ALOT OF CORN!


Honestly though, get a hold of me if any of you happen to come to Nebraska.

Dear Teresa and all of you in the same boat! I worked 35 years, retired, re-did my home for 2 years then "What Do I Do Now"!
A friend asked me to join the Womens Club and it was a lifesaver, as my husband died suddeny at 55 yrs old in 1999. I worked in the women's club and found it so much fun to be in charge of two Fashion Shows each year and entertainment. I have now been nailed for Pesident, last year this coming year. I must admit, I have really learned to deal with all sorts of women and I love being President. I found I'm a good leader. I don't do anything else except love my Mom and eight furrpurrsons very much. Just TV and Computer. I won't drive the freeways to get very far from home. I love being in here with you-all and hope to call you my "friends in the little square box". Oh by the way, I'm MOM TO TYBALT!! No, I didn't teach him to talk that way, he is just talented and educated and very psychic, not to mention drop dead gorgeous. (O he's gonna kill me LOL). Also dear to my heart is MOM OF 15 CATS (My Hero).LOL Thanks for listening - I'll be around to gab anytime! Barb

I just joined here as you can see...so as for friends here, not yet.

After reading this post, I somehow how felt a little better about not having many friends also. I'm not alone!!!!! I use to have a lot....my ex-husband got to the point he wanted me to put up office hours...for my friends.

But times have changed, we moved to a small town, knowing no one and now we are divoriced. So here I am in a town where I know no one, my old friends gone or else I cut them off because of the divorce. (long story...lets just say they got involved to much in my divorce) Anyway I have a animal rescue here at my home, so I don't get out much to meet people. Those I do meet are just animal calls...come get the animal...thanks....and by, is about it. It seem the older I get the harder it is to make new friends, maybe its me, who knows. But it would be nice to be able to call someone and just chat/vent/cry...whatever.

I did thanks to my X meet a man. The X husband broke into my home and cleaned the house out, so in having to replace things....I meet a man. 18 years my younger....that was a little odd for me at first....but I love him to death. He's my new husband now, 4 years. So I am lucky that I do have him...my best friend.

But no you are not the only one.....and thanks for reminding me that I'm not alone on this.

I was sad to see the google adds at the bottom were on depression.

I think I have some very good friends here that I PM nearly every day and talk to on email , there are also alot of people here that have touched my heart but we don't have such a close relation ship, alot of people here dislike me and that's fine, I wont go into detail. I come on here every day I get the chance and just chat to you guys, I wont be leaving here anytime soon.
This thread has really touched me in a way so emotional that I was reduced to tears, Please nobody think that you don't have any friends, if I lived closer I would be more than happy to socialise with you and be your offline friend but seeing as I live on a tiny little island with only my cats for company lol it's not possible so it's "online" friends we stay for now.

May god be with you-

Trust.

I feel is one of the main keys in a relationship wether two people are just friends or more than friends. I have a lot of trust and there have ben situations where I feel I have been "used" my close friends say I'm too nice and shouldn't let people take advantage of me.

People at school call me fat and that really lets down my trust barrior - call me names and I no longer trust you, people say you're not fat .. etc etc and say just forget it but that's something I can't forgive.

This whole thread reminds me of a quote from the movie, "You've Got Mail." Here it is:

KATHLEEN: Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, not small, but circumscribed. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven't been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn't it be the other way around?

I don't really want an answer. I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void. So goodnight, dear void.

LOL Kathy!

I don't have any unmasked photos of me. I don't like to have my picture taken, actually. And we don't have any pics of us together!

I guess, too, it's a matter of whether you're OK with having a couple of good friends or you'd like more. I'm very much a hermit - I'm lucky to leave the house once in a week. I'm not very good with people and don't actually have any friends. I probably prefer it that way, though so it's OK. I know it's not a 'normal' or ideal way to live but it makes my life a bit easier. LOL
