How does a person make a friend? I mean a real life friend, not an internet friend.
I haven't got any but I have no idea how to get one. I got married 10 years ago and haven't even tried to make or keep a friend. My marriage was my whole life. My husband was the only friend I needed but now I don't have him so I need to relearn the skills to make friends. I've gone to church but I still feel outside and very distanced from other people. I can converse and make jokes but I don't ever feel connected.
If anyone has any real ideas, I'd appreciate a crash course in making friends.
I know I sound like a simpleton but I really have no idea what I'm doing.
thanks
tina
