Strange things...

I had an interesting conversation with a friend today. We were both discussing why we were alone and what could we do to change it. His problem, and he readily admits it, is that he can't trust women. I've tried to tell him that he needs to quit tarring every woman with the same brush. There are a few of us good ones out there but he's just happened to find all the bad ones. He didn't think that was so funny. He likes me so he tolerates my humor. Myself, I'm just scared. Scared of rejection. Of being told I'm not good enough, pretty enough, or sexy enough for them to want to hang around a while and get to know me. Yea, I know. Self-esteem issues. Been this way for years, think I'm going to change now? Ha!

Hi.

Hang in there. I'm at the same place in my life (okay, I'm a couple of years younger). Sometimes I'm very low, sometimes not so much. It's a waiting game sometimes.

Even when I'm with people, I still feel very alone at times.

I feel like that a lot at times. Being alone in a crowd full of people.Life isnt so bad though. : )
