So, this is more of a rant than anything …
I moved to a new city a few months ago. I knew no one, at all. In general, it’s hard for me to make friends, but about a month after I had been here, I met an older (than me!) woman who reached out to me, and seemed very friendly. We seemed to have a lot in common, and she invited me to lunch. I was very excited about having lunch with her, because 1. At the time, I still didn’t have any friends and 2. She seemed like an awesome person.
She sent me some emails, which seemed pretty enthusiastic about getting together (in the near future). Well, after a day or two, I emailed her back, trying to set something up. Nothing. No response. This was over a month ago. I emailed her again a few weeks ago in case she hadn’t received my initial email. Again – nothing. Every time I check my email, I feel disappointed, waiting for a reply that never comes.
Since then, I have made friends, so it’s not like I was completely dependent on her for companionship, but even so, I am very hurt. I don’t know why or even if she is ignoring me – something could have come up in her life, for example. But, in any event, the summer is almost over, and I don’t think she will have time to hang out this fall (given her schedule), and … well, it just sucks.
I wish I could stop hoping that she will magically contact me, because I don’t think it’s gonna happen.
