The never dated like family type of friends at home. And that is what I miss. I know I can't recapture that here but I miss them for sure. <br /> <br /><br />I love women and I think that having female friends is EXTREMELY important and essential. And for those women who say" I don't like women and only have male friends. I could never understand it. Yes I agree that those closest bonds formed are usually friendships with another woman.Crafty Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13680772238934116697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203141972933868864.post-56197279341193139572011-02-08T11:24:18.348-08:002011-02-08T11:24:18.348-08:00You know, I have never been one of those people wh...You know, I have never been one of those people who thinks the majority of people are stupid, or not worth knowing. I have always thought that most people had something interesting about them that would appeal to someone, somewhere. But it's not true. There are a whole wack of people out there who are just not interesting to anybody, not even other boring people. <br /><br />If the expat event had at least had some black broads I could have been entertained, but there was literally nothing. It was like everyone there was just a limp, shapeless piece of plasma. Maybe I fit into the category of came here for my boyfriend but I suppose the difference would be, I am still trying to attend these events although I have lived here for years and have actual friends.<br /><br />Maybe we are just not desperate enough to hang out at these things... I usually meet people at classes or work. Have made some awesome friends at my awesome new job so that is positive.<br /><br />As for men, girl... guurrrrrl I just don't know. What I do find interesting is that you need men in your life in a non-romantic sense? Well but that is the best way to find a man who likes you for you, to be sure. Do you connect well with dudes? I find, I don't even see men. I kind of did when I was single but never in a friend sense. Something deep and innate tells me that only a woman will ever come close to providing the friendship and companionship I need outside a romantic relationship.

Some of the groups and events were such a struggle I just didn't know what to do. <br /><br />What I was finding with the groups here is that they were full of 1 of the following groups of people: The socially awkward I only have online friends group; The I moved here with my boyfriend lived here for a year made no effort to make friend and now I am lonely group; The bougie or Country Black broads group (yeah the sistas have been called broods because that is how they were acting) I lucked up in meeting some people with common sense but it was not without GREAT effort on my part. <br /><br />Although I need to meet men. And not in the romantic sense but just guys in general I don't have enough of those around.Crafty Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13680772238934116697noreply@blogger.com
