[quote=Anonymous]I've made one new friend in the past decade. One. I'm not outgoing, so it's difficult for me to reach out to people. I met my friend through our church. She and I were on a committee together, and she asked if I'd like to meet for coffee. It was easy to meet people when I was younger and working with a lot of people my age. I made lots of friends then. I didn't make many friends when my kids were in school, though. I never clicked with the moms at my kids' private school. I thought they were climbers and nouveaux riches. But the school was very good. My kids made friends there, but they didn't keep their friends after private school. My best friends are from childhood and from college, plus a few I've made while working. I don't feel like I need a lot of friends, though. As long as I have a handful, maybe five or six, I'm fine.
