I don't see my friends from home often at all and I miss them terribly. I've made some lovely friends here though and that's helped a great deal. Having LO really stopped me missing my friends as much.

I have one very close friend who I see 1-2 times a month and a couple other friends that I see every few months. DH is truly my best friend and I see him everyday. And spending time with DS is tons of fun.

I'm not necessarily lonely, as I tend to be a solitary person by nature, but I would enjoy having a few more meaningful relationships. It is very difficult for me to open up to people and get to a close level of friendship.

I'd say two very close friends I text with all the time and then a couple others I don't keep in touch with as often but consider good friends. I don't see any of them often at all due to my job (I've moved around a lot all over the country while they stayed in our hometown the whole time.) Definitely feel like a loser with no friends sometimes when I see (damn FB) how most of my friends from high school managed to stay close with each other through the years. And I feel alone when I need to vent about stresses from my job and I can't really do that with my girlfriends because they don't know anything about my career field and can't relate because it is so different and specialized than your typical office job.

I'd say I have 3 best friends. One in NJ (my bff) One who's currently in CA, from high school in Cuba, and one in Florida, who I met when I was like 10 in Cuba. I see them all maybe once a year, (for extended periods of time, like when I'm on vacation) and different times obviously.

I'm extremely lonely I have some friends here, but they all either work and/or have babies. I haven't clicked with anyone the way I have with my BFs. I think it's hard to make good friends once you reach a certain age.

Yes, we moved 5 hours away from all of our amazing friends about 2 years ago, and I miss them so much. We went from seeing them once a week to a few times a year. We have not made any new friends in our new area. DH and I are both introverts so it has been hard for us to meet new people.

I don't have any kids yet so I can't join a moms' group. I am actually thinking about taking a sewing class in the fall so I can meet some people. I am hesitating though because it is expensive, and we are saving for a house.
