Good Morning!

@Appleblossom thank you Apple xxx

Guess I was vulnerable about talking about people dying, a few posts back, in this thread @TAB @tyme

Maybe no harm meant, but some things are sacred. My father died young, and 2 brothers and one sister died young. Yes, it is why I am on the forum and fuels my sense of advocacy for mental health issues. Not sure how else to make meaning from it. Put lots of effort into connecting to others and joking and being lighthearted too.

Thank you for clarifying @Appleblossom . We hear how this may have affected you. Is there a way we can support you?

I can see @TAB was unaware of this trigger, and we're mindful we don't always know people's triggers.

Thanks @tyme it is always with me. I will just lay low a little. @TAB and I were sharing about many things.

@PeppyPatti this was something I was trying to help TYO (20 year old) "friend" with but none of my suggestions ever interested her. Being that she is a uni student I suggested special interest groups through the uni.

At my age I don't know how to meet people. I have trouble maintaining the friendships I have and having been burnt it seems now like twice, I don't really think I want to meet anyone.

Loneliness is hard but not as hard as the pain of betrayal and rejection.

Pets are great for starting up conversations. If only I could get Mal to walk on a leash!

@ENKELI @I must admit. Having friends - people one on one as friends is something I'm not really good at.

@ENKELI @Appleblossom @tyme @TAB @Ru-bee @AuntGlow @Oaktree @Glisten

I think it's when you sit with a friend, you don't need to fill the silent times.

I wish I had more friends who are women.

You'll have to take me as your friend then @PeppyPatti LOL...
