so what's the point in trying to make them.

i think you need to answer this question for yourself Manda... if you feel lonely, then that is all the reason you need to make friends...

consider the person you are trying to make friends with... are they truly someone who you share common interests with? have they displayed an interest in continuing a friendship with you? they will need to have such an interest in order to fulfill their own role as a friend/partner

choose people who understand the importance of personal health, they willguide yo towards your own and you will learn from them the answers you have now about what a true friend really is and does
