only the lonely

I wish I wasn’t so bad at making flesh friends.

That sounds worse than it should. Basically, I have a lot of people that I’m friends with on the internet and I’m grateful for them all because they’re awesome – but they’re also far away and I’ve never actually met them. I have very few good friends I can poke in the flesh on a regular basis – in fact, I just went from one to TWO – and sometimes that makes me sad.

Maybe I should go make close personal friends with the people participating in the drum circle next door. I bet they’re totally the kind of people I’d want to tell all my secrets to.

  1. It may sound really lame, but find a group that meets and discusses something that interests you. I haven’t necessarily added to my flesh friend count, but it has helped make me feel like I’m getting more human interaction. Plus, you find the right crowd and you can actually enjoy their company.

    Granted, as soon as I pop out the baby, I no longer qualify for the group, but let’s not worry about that yet. :)
