That's very cool about the women's choir! Sounds like you have the right idea about giving it more time. Even if you don't connect with people there, at least you're doing something you enjoy, something for yourself.

And good for you for keeping on with the letter writing!

But I can totally relate to having trouble connecting with people. I don't know why that is. I'm told I'm personable and I'm generally pretty friendly and polite and considerate and all that stuff but there so often seems to be this unbridgeable chasm between me and other people. I haven't had a true friend in years and years. I keep hoping and praying that I can change whatever it is in me that's causing that.

Anyway, keep me posted on how you're doing!
