I need to find something to DO with myself so I can meet people to attempt to form friendships in real life. I dont go to church and am not really interested in starting. I live in a fairly small town that doesnt offer much in the way of social situations. I dont have much money to spend either. I dont want to go volunteering at any school because I am sick to death of kids...lol.
I have never been good at making friends. I dont think I have had one that lived near me since I left high school. My whole existence has revolved around my family...except for the years when I was working and I thought I had made friends but when I had to quit...they all went away.
As it stands now the only things I do are go to the doctors, go to the grocery store and rarely go out to eat. We go up to visit Jamie about 3 times a year or so but that isnt really getting out. My therapist wishes I could move into housing for the disabled and elderly but that isnt going to happen either. Maybe I need to go into a nursing home so I would have activities...lol.
My only interests are music, reading, computers and gee...I cant think of anything else! Im boring! I dont party, I cant drink because of the medications so I hate going to some party where folks are gonna get drunk...you really notice how stupid people act when you are the only sober one!
I do go to concerts several times a year when I can find one locally that I would like and can afford. But that too is solitary.
What on earth do people do to find friends? (And dont say get out and talk to neighbors...remember they want to kill us!)
