I know the feeling. Sadly, I don’t have inspiring methods of trying to make friends that don’t suck. I feel like the ship has sailed for me. I have maybe two friends. And neither of them are close by enough to do anything with them, in person, on a regular basis.

I resented this for some time, but I’m now in the acceptance phase and am simply trying to enjoy what I can for however long I can. I’m fortunate to have a spouse who seemingly wants to be with me (hopefully not out of habit :) ). So I have some good things in my life, just not any nearby trustworthy and caring friends. And I think I’m at a place now where I can live with that, but there are some times it makes me sad.
