No way.. I have given up my friends too. And you know what? I have never been happier. I realized that Facebook friends put limits on me because I couldn't talk about this or that, but they were useless. They weren't real friends. I couldn't "do" anything with them. They wouldn't show up if I feel down or something so why was I waisting energy on them?

Then I decided that anyone who invited me to anything had to be someone who took the time to consider if I would really like it... in other words... they had not to be using me.

I don't even have a husband. But I am happy to watch movies and decorate my home and work on me. I remember in the 1980s that was the way it was... without e-mail and social networking and stuff, we just had 1 or 2 friends who valued us and then we lost our way.

I thought I would be lonely but I realized how much being with others who didn't value me was lonely.
