View submission: Do you ever feel depressed?
I absolutely relate to what you're saying. I spend a lot of time mulling over the dilemma of how to find people who are like me. My husband is dear and wonderful, and I really do love our rather isolated rural existence, but at times I crave the company of other people like me, and by that I mean people who share similar politics, people who care about education, people who are creative, maybe a bit eccentric, people who are not fashionistas or care about trendy fads or keeping up with the Joneses, just a little group of one or four people who could go get a coke once in a while or sit in the park, exchange recipes or casseroles, pass along good books, reminisce, or work a crossword together over the phone, talk about sourdough. Trouble is I become bored quickly with most people, and I readily admit it's my problem, not theirs. I'm too picky about friends, I guess. I can name mostly on one hand the few people in my entire life whom I have truly meshed with and looked forward to spending time with them. True joyous friends. I wish someone would invent a venue where you could be matched with a group of people who could have that connection.
