I feel so alone right now. I can't talk to my boyfriend about everything, sometimes you just need girl talk. I miss my family so much right now. I'm missing out on everything, all this fun stuff that's going on and I'm missing it. I'm also missing my nephew who just turned 7 months. I need someone to go out and drink with and talk.

    I feel like that some times too! Where do you live? Too bad you didn't live in S-Cali :)
  • Southern Louisiana. My family is all back in Michigan. :sad: :sad: :brokenheart:
  • Aw! I feel that way too sometimes. I hope you can plan a trip to see them soon. It sounds like you need one!

    You and me both, sister! I wish you lived in Dallas, I'd take you up on that!

    Alright, this thread is a little creepy lol.

    I currently live in Michigan and I'm planning on moving to SoCal (Newport Beach).

    I'm sorry you don't have some girlfriends...try getting involved with an exercise class or something. Once I started dedicating a lot of my time to Zumba, I gained a ton of new friends - we text, chat & hang out all the time.

    I felt the same way when I lived in Cali and then Nebraska. My family are all in the Kansas City, MO area and was truly lonely without friends and family I knew and love. I made some really great friends in CA that I still talk with to today so I am happy for my time there but nothing compares to home...

    I truly understand I just moved to Nevada and it does get lonely. You should join a zumba class you will meet a lot of new females who are trying to stay fit too.
  • I'm from the Detroit Metro area.

    I'm in Michigan too. Sorry you feel that way. I know how you feel though and my family is all here. We live about 20 miles apart and that is still to far sometimes to go visit. Limited income and limited fuel.
  • Girl, I am on the same boat as you. It's great to have a supportive boyfriend that listens & is there for you, but you just need some girl some sometimes.

    Yeah I've thought about that. I work with a lot of ladies around my age and we talk at work, but that's about it.
  • I live in michigan have no girlfriends in the town I live in. My best girls are spread all over Michigan. I have trouble finding friends like them all women these days are such mommies.

    I really understand that. I love my husband to death, but girl talk is a must...and I just dont connect with most of my friends anymore. We are at different places in our lives and we have sadly grown apart (high school friends).

    Wow that's really far!

    Not feeling so bad that my boyfriend is on the other side of the country. I don't think I could live 1/2 a world away from my family. That's got to be so hard on you!

    I'm in Farmington Hills (for all the Michiganders)

    I'm from Michigan, married a miltary man, lived in Louisiana, and now he's medically retired so we live in Nebraska! I too miss my good friends and family back in Michigan, but alas there's no economy. :-( And all the other friends I have made all over the world.

    I agree the best way to make friends is get involved! Don't be shy, go up and introduce yourself. If at first you don't find your new BFF, try try again! I love FaceBook so I can keep up with the "old" ones.

    Another thing I like to do is invite everyone I know over for potluck brunches, or bunco, or meet at a restaurant for brunch. Then they make new friends too, or you can ask them to bring a friend too!

    Good Luck!

    :frown:
    I understand
    Since I moved away 5 years ago I still don't have any REAL close friends, just work friends and acquaintences.
    My life is work and home, that's it, haven't gone "out" in 5 years, and it does suck having nobody to talk to.

    p.s. I'm going to my first Zumba class tonight! lol
  • My rant........ I figured well my hubbie pointed out, that in my town that certain teams pretty much recruit good soccer players (5-7year olds) to be on certain teams on the city's kindergarten-1st soccer league. And guess what my son's team is awful, he doesn't care he still trips over the ball. Guess they don't care if teams are fair and kids have a good time. To top it off one of the good team coaches is my neighbor . I guess he doesn't want to coach my untalented son That is what kind of town we live in. A sports obsessed/ PTA mother's clique town. Ahhhh I feel better.

    Man I feel the same way. My friends and family are in ut tx & az while I`m ne. Furthermore I`m at a job where only 4 of about 45 of us are female and I`m older than everyone by at least a few years and sometimes by 10 years even.
