I like having a wide variety of friends, so I don't mind a range of ages - but I just feel like I am sort of stuck in a pattern lately.

Doing active things with my older friends can be discouraging. A lot of them are not willing to accept their physical limitations. They see me as a great activity partner, because I am young and won't slow them down their other friends their age do... but they slow me down!

I had lunch last week with someone my age who is going through the same stuff I am going through and it just really reminded me how much I miss that kind of connection.
