true friendships are hard to make and even harder to keep.. I have very few friends. Wish that i could widen my circle but I am a little shy and well.. only seem to be able to strike up conversations with men or peole that I don't really think are fun.

Don't beat yourself up for feeling lonely..or for wanting to be around people to feel included.

Is it possibly that you can join a gorup of club where there would be people with similar interests that you could hang around with?
