i don't have a lot of advice but wanted to say i've been there. now 35 and still trying to figure it out. i never had many friends in high school or college, and the few i had were far away and lost touch with them quickly after. i find this forum to be a huge help as far as feeling more connected to people. without this i would never talk to anyone outside of my little family. i still don't have friends really that i can see face to face. i've all but given up on that. but i come on here and feel better, talking to others like me. i hope that you can find it as helpful as i have, and welcome
