I'm getting really lonely...

Squee! I love your avatar. I think I'm going through something similar as you right now. A lot of my friends no longer have anything in common with me, and I've recently moved back to my hometown. I have a boyfriend, but we've haven't had a close relationship lately. I find myself alone at home a lot, which is depressing.

I think being open to possibility of friends, while not pushing for it to happen too much is a good strategy. It's impossible to force friendship for some reason, and looking for relationships usually doesn't work for some reason. But being "out there" increases your chance for friendship. I find that new relationships enter into my life when I don't care about whether or not they happen. I don't think people like the "puppy dog" vibe. It puts pressure on people. I wonder where all the other puppy dogs are? If we could find them, that would be awesome.

Good luck finding a job; sometimes having somewhere to be helps you appreciate the alone time you do have!

Looks like things are finally starting to improve. I applied for yet another job and I think I have a pretty good chance of getting it.

I also made a new friend today! Her name is Courtney and she lives down the street of my section of the neighborhood. Her family moved in a couple of months ago, but it was too cold then to go outside and meet people. It's in the 70's today, so it's really nice out now. Anyway, we got along great. We have a lot of similar interests and she invited me back over again tomorrow (she had to leave early today for her little sister's school carnival). Looks like it's the start of a beautiful friendship.

glad things are getting better for you Lightning88

you are basicly describing me.. popular but now everyone is gone..

Good to hear you're meeting people.

My new friend had to do stupid chores today so she couldn't hang out... My boyfriend's been doing stupid chores all day, too... Back to being bored and lonely again.

Try some stupid chores, when in doubt, do your laundry.

Human hunting is mostly seasonal. Summer is the usual migration season, finishing a school year and moving on. Mostly they pick a herd and stay with it till the season changes, for like your area, with hats, scarves, mittens, coats, boots, it is hard to tell what is under all that.

As you have been given a pack to fit in somehow, school, this is the new future, finding others in their natural habitat. They are a shy and elusive species, mostly given to hiding in their den and coming out to forage only when they have to, then being in a hurry to reach safety again.

Looking for a job is good cover, people do not want to be friends with people who want to be friends, but they want it to happen when doing something else.

It gets you dressed and out, which is half the battle. Doing something else, which forces the prey species to take greater risks, job applications, talking to strangers, which loosens them up a bit.

Watch the weather, after a long winter warm days bring many out, and they are still sleepy from a long hibernation, find a place you can watch from, and observe the pattern of movement.

You are not the only one who is bored and lonely.
