GAW is your family, pedes—but we're not your immediate friends! Covid did some real damage to our lives, and many of us have seen our social support circle of friends (and acquaintances, also important!) shrink. Covid ends when we heal and rebuild our social circle! Take a chance! GET OUT THERE! 🐸

I have no friends. I had a few work friends where I used to live, but we moved last year and now I have no friends who live within a thousand miles of me. And I don't really consider text/Facebook friends to be true friends. We're just friends on a screen.
It's a lonely time for many people. I am happy and blessed to have my husband and I am thankful for him every day. But we really just have each other at this point. Even our families are many, many miles away.
He is, of course. There's no one more important. We used to socialize with others occasionally and I had women friends I stayed in touch with. No more. But that seems to be the case for many people now.
We're about to move again to a rural area where I'll probably see even fewer people. On the other hand, the people we will see will be conservative and family-oriented, so that's good. I'm thinking about going back to church, but my husband thinks church people are crazy. I know they can be, but I think it's the only hope I have. We'll see how it goes.
Same here but my husband just died. I have my adult son, but I can't expect him to be my social life.
I am so sorry to hear that. I pray you will find companionship and a solid social circle to support you.
You do you, fren
