This is a place. . .

This is a place for all of us who are alone. There are so many of us. We don't have to be alone. Some of us just don't have a clue how to hold a conversation with people. Why is this? I don't know. Some of us have moved to new city's and feel lost. Others of us are just plain scared of relationships. Some of us are all of the above and then some.
This is a safe place, I welcome comments, I want people who visit this site to build friendships. So leave comments for one an other in the comment section. Any comments that are inappropriate will be deleted. Just a warning.
I will try to post a bit each day. Let it be known that I don't spell very well, and I've never been very good with grammer. Please feel free to email me directly and nofriendweb@gmail.com

Hey Jane. Thanks so much for starting this site. It's a really great idea and I hope that others who are feeling lonely are able to come here, find comfort, and build relationships with one another. I am a 23 year old college student who has been fighting overwhelming feelings of loneliness for some time now. My jr year in high school, my best friend and I had a huge falling out. The details are rather complicated, but basically I did something that really upset her without realizing it, and things were just never the same. Growing up, I always had a best friend. After this falling out, she changed schools and I changed schools, and it's been basically six years that I have been without that wonderful sort of "soul-sister" type of female friendships. I miss it terribly. Since high school, it seems that I have had no problem attracting guys, and basically have always had a boyfriend at one point or another, and while thats better than nothing, it's definately not the same thing. Now I have a wonderful fiance who is my best friend and I am very happy with him, but I still feel depressed because I don't have someone to talk to about the girlie stuff, you know what I mean? I have family and my mom is great, but even she is in an entirely different state. Anyway, thanks again for this site. It's nice to talk about these feelings and know that I am not alone.

Hi Heather,
Thanks for posting. I had a falling out with my best friend in high school too, we had been friends sense kindergarten. It is devastating to lose that type of relationship.
Moms (Dads) are great, but they are also an average of 20 years older then us. We need girls (guys) our own age that are in the same place in life as we are to talk to.
I think one of my goals for myself and others is to find out how to connect with others, so we can develop friendships. I think as a society we are so lonely. Our lives are filled with all this material stuff, but we have few people to talk about our hopes, fears, dreams etc.

I'm so glad I'm not completely alone, if you guys are here :)...I'm 22 and in University and I feel very lonely a lot of the time. I live with my boyfriend, who's pretty much my only friend, but I do love him very much. My father passed away last year, and my whole family and I were very close with him. I felt like none of my friends could possibly understand what I was going through, because I'm Christian, and my father was a minister. None of them were Christians, and I didn't feel like I could to talk to any of them about what was most important to me...So I didn't even tell any of them, and eventually stopped talking with them. Even a year later, I miss him so much, I think about him every day it seems, and depresses me greatly to not have anyone that really understands...Anyway, thanks for creating this site, it feels good to get it out in the open.
