[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have many dear friends, some I've known since childhood, some more recent. That being said, I have found making friends in DC to be really really hard. I freelance from home (which is another way to say my salary wouldnt cover childcare). I've tried activities, volunteer stuff... but it is very very hard here. I never had any trouble before.

As a kid, I moved often and made friends everywhere we lived. Despite all of that, I remained good friends with 2 people and we still keep in contact to this day. I also learned that having a large circle of "friends" (I put friends in quotes because you learn along the way that most aren't you're friend, they just use you) resulted in a lot of drama and most of it could have been avoided.

Once I become an adult and moved to another state, I found it to be harder because most of those in my age bracket already had their "clique" and they weren't to keen on an outsider trying to get to know them even though we had similar interests. Some would eventually open up (months or years later) but it was basically too late as far as I was concerned. [/quote]
