Or at least I like to think I am. Brock is my best friend. But he's definitely not a girl, and sometimes I just miss having that girl-friend... know what I mean? ... Brock never wants to see chick flicks! Cate - it really is. I think that's why I blog. I guess I need to try harder, but it really is HARD to put yourself out there. :/ Dahnya - I'm on it. Top of the line suggestion. :) Gemma! I'm so glad you're here!! Thanks for your support... and understanding. I know how hard it must be for you with those new friends. They HAVE to like you though, you are sweet and amazing. I loved your Halloween costume, by the way. Best Mary Poppins Ever. Natalie – I’m in the same boat. Or at least I like to think I am.

in my experience you just have to work at it, even if you feel like you’re getting nowhere just call up those friends, be there for them. they’re going to appreciate that and you never know, they might even feel the same way as you. i think that friendship creeps up on you and one day when you least expect it you’ll take a look around and realise that you’re surrounded by great friends. you won’t know how you got there but you’ll be so happy about it anyways!

Seriously, I was in your boat for the longest time & then one day I decided, "why not"? And it's been the best decision of my life! You can do it! You just have to make the time for it. Retail therapy is the best. :) Call those people up, see what happens.

Part of that is that many of my friends live elsewhere, but part of it is that I'm at a different place in my life than most of my old friends, and our friendships suffer from it. It's kind of a bummer. Making friends is so hard!! I feel the same way.

But if I think about it I realize that the reason I don't have any friends like that is that I married the one person that I wanted to talk to about everything. And when the problem is him, it gets solved faster because he's the only person I can vent to lol. At least you've got all your other friends ;) Aww, sometimes I feel the same way.
