[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP, yet again.
Many of you think I should move on and/or find new friends. Others think I send too many texts and I should wait for the other person to make the next move. Someone actually called me a psycho ... wow and LOL.

Let me tell you something. DH and I live in a small town. Semi-rural is the best way to describe it. We moved here from a big, vibrant, cosmopolitan city 16 years ago.
Some people say they feel lonely in a big city. I have to say that I found socializing far, far easier in the big city we lived in than here. We went out more, got together with friends more often, drinks with co-workers after work, etc. Social life was just easier.
Here, by contrast, trying to get together with someone for coffee or a meal is like pulling teeth.

The people I'm texting are mid/late 50s, early 60s so not elderly![/quote]

I’m sorry OP. I don’t know why people are being mean to you. It’s hard when the friends you want to hang out with seem to not care as much about hanging out with you. I would recommend cooling off on these friends for a bit and letting them initiate next time. And maybe get involved in community events or classes to find a new crowd.[/quote]
