Hi will19....Just wanted to mention that I relate very much to what you're saying here about the feelings that come from being unattached, etc. Me too, for sure. Aside from the fact that I don't have a husband, boyfriend, SI, etc., and the only person I'd really call a friend (who's not online only)....is very busy and lives 4 hours away....I live in a small town where most of the people I meet have been here pretty much forever, and even though I feel like there are people out there who may like me, no one has any time or even "openings" for new friends. I've lived here for almost sixteen years, and the only two people I've met that I actually socialized with both moved away within a few months of each other. Of course I'm still open to meeting people, but it's been pretty discouraging. I just thank God for the Redwood trees, the amazing wildlife and my four cats
Wishing you happier times in the future ~whimsy
