Well, why didn't you assume that posting on asl will solve all your
loneliness? Try to meet some people and make friends.
Last year, I lost 3 freinds. No,t hey didn't die. Tow were guys, one
from school and one I had known for about 3 years. The latter quit
being my friend because I refused to join him at his invitations to
avoid his bugging me for sex. The former was a classmate who not only
didn't appreciate all the time I spent in making cds for him and mail
stuff to him + sent some original sw to load in his PC but complained
about the sw I sent being not a complete package - I only sent the
ones that are free to download but save him time because I wasn't
going to give my key to people - aside from not putting a check for
the shipping cost after he bugged me to rush it and I did it putting
aside my studies.
So I left a message to him about his behavior stating that I shouldn't
have to tell him that. He left me a message that he forgot to include
a check. Instaed of lettign it go, the next time he calld, he had the
nerve to talk to me with a condenscending tone and so I said "Get
lost".
The female friend I lost was ..well, going through stuff (didn't like
that her husband wasn't aggressive enough to achieve things + their
immigration filing was pushed aside and got alonger, etc. needing them
to go to take Canadian residency which she didn't want to do since
there is no job there) .
But early this year, I gained 2 female friends that are just wonderful
+ this guy who at times seemed to be bossy but truly cares about me.
Of course, he knows that another name claling and he will be
buried :) Anyway, I think that it was because I was ready that I met
those two females friends. As for the guy, I don't know I am ready or
not. I don't think about it over what's most important for me right
now.
Having said all that, I think there is nothing online that can replace
the real social contact that we human needs. If I were not so
susceptible to heat and elevation chnage, I'd be doing hiking a lot.
I can be too outdoorsy.
So my suggestion is, well don't rely on asl only.
Take care.
