[quote=Anonymous]Hello OP, I have to say you are not alone. I find the DC area very hard to meet new friends. Maybe that could be the case anywhere in the US, but especially hard in DC. Before having my kids I worked full time and had maybe one or two friends. Everyone is so busy and also we were geographically spread out (someone in NoVA to my DC) and it was just hard to get together because with traffic it would take us an hour or so to get to each other's houses. It got so much easier to meet new friends once kids came because I met so many other moms out and about. Not saying you should have a baby just to meet people, but that may be the natural progression of your life and therefore it will get easier for you. I am not sure if you are depressed (I didn't read all of your posts) but if this is a low grade depression that could potential "negative feelings" or "dwelling on negative feelings". Just take life by the horns and live your life. Be happy and do what you would love to do in life and then you will meet other people. Seriously, have you also tried a "MeetUp" group? google meetup and you can join and then find other people who share your interests. Good luck![/quote]
