yep i could use one :)

I know how you feel. I have been looking for a real friend for a long time. It seems hard to find people who actually want to communicate and stay in touch. Add me as a friend if you are interested and we could message each other on here unless you are looking for a friend who lives near you.

You don't sound depressing. I am authentic. I need people too. Somehow, over time, me & my old friends drifted apart. They went on and had children, when I had none. What I did have, was health issues to deal with and then ~ family (crazy siblings) to deal with and when my health seems to be on the mend ~ where did everyone go ? ~ ~ ~ ~

You're fabulous people and it's nice to meet you. :D Hope to talk again...

What is this "authentic" friend you speak of? LOL Never had one of those:) Would love to see how that worked!

haha Hi rainkitten... it's when they aren't full of lies and deciept. When they are who they say they are behind the monitor. If you've been online long enough you find out that some people are players/users/liars.. and all that garbage. I'm the real me. :D

I would like a real friend as it's difficult to find authentic people. I'm a loyal person, non-judgemental and supportive. I really need woman friendships as that's what's missing in my life. I live in a town where I have no women friends. Having friends online who I can relate to means a lot to me and helps me feel less alone.

I once had a friend who I considered a lifelong friend but she ended up disowning me because I had let her down too many times throughout the years. The only problem was I didn't know what I was doing wrong as she never told me but bottled it up until apparently I broke the last straw by not meeting up to her expectation. I was devastated and tried to mend things over the years with no response. It hurt so bad that she could cut me out of her life. I've heard she's done this with some others but it still hurt. Anyway, I'm honest and open and just getting to know people on DS to find out who I relate to. Here it goes....I'm clicking "add" comment.

I want to clarify something so people don't get the wrong idea about me. My partner and I each pay half of the bills here... so I'm not sitting here at home or looking to party when he's working. Just looking for friends. I isolate because he has our only car with him at work and I can't get outside much because of big mean dogs in our neighborhood. We're in the process of relocating so that won't be an issue. Thanks for listening... I feel better now :D
