I Want to Make Friends

I know fully well that I'm in a deep search to find more friends, but that's the thing. Not just any friend. A REAL friend. Some one who is real on the outside just as much as the inside. Where I live particularly, people are not real enough or real at all. I feel like elaborating more on this. While I live in a college town, there's very little to get involved in to meet others and to have the chance to establish connections that can lead to friendship. Its extremely disheartening and depressing to be in an area with little opportunities on finding a place to fit in with with the right people. I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm painfully lonely every day due to having no friends to share moments with. Its a deep strong longing that I refuse to give up on, and I keep telling myself that its better to be alone than to be with the wrong people. In that case, it is better to be alone. Its just that I've been alone for so long that my walls are breaking down and I just need some one to come along in my life. And once they're here, they will stay. Maybe not forever since nothing lasts forever, but long enough to help me over come the torturous empty void that loneliness accompanies.

I know how it feels, being lonely. Having nothing to look foward, well, at least if it's interacting with people. But I learned to embrace it.

I tried to embrace the feeling but I could only maintain that for so long. By the way.. You look very familiar. I had talked to you on EP previously, though you probably won't remember me. But that's ok. I just remember people easily even if I had talked to them shortly or briefly.

Really?! What's your name, or your EP username? Anyway, it's hard really, especially when I'm out and see a group of people and I think to myself how that feels. But then I just go on about my day.

I'm sure my name on EP was EndofSilence, least I think that's the name I used when we talked. And my real name is Kara, if that sparks your memory at all.

Yes, it does. I remember talking to you Kara and your username sounds very familiar.

@xjesse24: I remember that you live in Texas, are you still living there? I actually miss EP, it seems it was easier for others to find you and start connections.

Yes! I still live in Texas. Wow, it's nice meeting old friends! Is it okay if I add you?

@xjesse24: Yes you can add me :) I am in need of more friends.
