Wish I could say something helpful but unfortunately, I'm in the same boat too. The only true close friend I've ever had is my boyfriend :lol: Only one other person has been there for me in the same way, but we lost touch and she lives in another country.

So far I'm looking for friends on places like tumblr and OkCupid but with little success. I guess I give off a vibe that puts people off *shrugs*

Weak attempt at advice: maybe try looking on forums relevant to your interests?

Possibly. There are a few people here I think would make a good friend but I'm reluctant.

I'm told it generally takes a few tries to find someone you can have a deep connection with. Perhaps I should get to PMing and see which ones pan out?

I think that's a pretty good idea :)

Well actually no to be fair I always manage to find one person at different points in my life who happens to fill the role your kinda alluding too although with me it perhaps interprets slightly differently. I think its harder to find such people when your in a relationship in some respects. I quite suck at the balancing a social life outside of a relationship act so i kinda need to figure this out myself


kinda this.

I can usually find someone to talk to closely in a non-romantic way if I want. but lately I just can't be assed and it would be nice if there was someone where it didn't feel like such an effort. or where I can be fully myself without reservation. It can be quite tiring talking with people who don't 'get' you
