[quote=Anonymous]I actually felt like you. I moved to a new area and tried to make some friends but didn't feel like it was getting anywhere. I talked to my husband and then realized that while it is good to be friendly with your neighbors i.e. hello how are you when out for a walk, it might not be great to be sooooo close with your neighbors because when something happens..and it always does..you are in the middle of Peyton place. I then started reaching out beyond my neighborhood (live in Mclean) and started to meet some people at kids classes, Clemijontri Park, Starbucks etc and now feel great. I also realized that sometimes you can think someone is snobby and they really are just shy. Case in point-there was a lady at one class that I was in that I thought seems very cold until oneday I made a point of saying hi and asking about her weekend--she literally starting babbling about all kinds of things and I realized that she was shy and just happy someone started to talk to her..we are now friends.

Keep trying![/quote]
