[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Ties with people is different than seeking an identity rooted in a "cause" OP. [/b] I know people who have found ties in a group by joining a church or meditation community, for example, in mid-life. Why not focus on strengthening ties to the friends and family you mention, creating shared happy joint memories, etc.?[/quote] I'm aware. I'm wanting both at the same time, like the examples I gave.[/quote] If you are not a troll you sound like you have narcissistic tendencies, OP. Your focus on external validation and exclusivity may be why you feel so empty? Value the people around you and cultivate humility. That would put you in an "exclusive" group, but not one you can brag about at cocktail parties. [/quote] What part of "I have no community" don't you understand? I don't attend cocktail parties. I don't even have friends to brag to. [/quote] Why have you isolated yourself like this? Do you have kids, siblings, husband, neighbors?? Your self isolation is a choice you’re making. You have to start showing up to stuff and connecting with people if you want to be part of a tribe that’s bigger than just yourself. I don’t understand how you make it to 50 without being part of anything, no community. This must be a troll post.[/quote] The first post makes pretty clear why OP has trouble making friends. [/quote]
