You have grown to to trust the people that became your friends early in life. I don't make new friends easily, not because I don't trust people - not sure what it is! I haven't let anyone close enough to backstab me yet, that I know of. Hang in there - good friendships may be hard to find, but once you get some, they are priceless... :)Evahttp://www.socamom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-34536046735399748872012-11-15T13:21:26.898-05:002012-11-15T13:21:26.898-05:00Happy to hear that you do have a sibling that you ...Happy to hear that you do have a sibling that you call a best friend.

Unless you fit into their little niche of the perfect wife, mother and hostess it's really hard. I've been divorced for 19 years and it was hard to find friends when I was a single mother. Most women my age were married and living the married life. Now most women my age have grandchilden and are all living the grandparent life. I don't have grandkids or a husband so I really don't fit in. Fortunately for me I have a wonderful sister who is also my best friend.Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18196096131750922174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-60565732976011800142012-11-15T13:09:35.216-05:002012-11-15T13:09:35.216-05:00Some yes, but they are on the other coast.Some yes, but they are on the other coast.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316511791499949824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-73697303703820857252012-11-15T13:09:01.927-05:002012-11-15T13:09:01.927-05:00I can't figure out why women like drama so muc...I can't figure out why women like drama so much.

I find most of my friends on the internet, those like me who can understand where I am coming from. Indeed, they have become real friends, giving me Christmas presents and even loaning money when I really need it. They are nicer to me than most of my family and IRL friends.Emily Cullenhttp://www.mamasick.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-36263968718560542892012-11-15T11:19:22.586-05:002012-11-15T11:19:22.586-05:00How terrible!

When women blog,...LOL idk why this post is so Adam West like. <br /><br />I would say try hard to find frineds with the same interests.
