Not art related, but - a request of my own.
No. I have it too. Only a few contacts though.
If anyone wants my Id, send a PM.

You might consider becoming more active in church. Most churches that have young people in regular attendance have many different kinds of singles activities available. If your church doesn't, it might be time to consider another, even if only on a trial basis. Find one that fits. I realize that it's a broad sweeping statement, but on the whole, people in a church are less interested in the content of your wallet (or pants) and more interested in the content of your head and heart.
Thanks all - firstly for not trashing me; I knew there was a reason I trusted this section... I mean I've trusted you all with my art for nearly a year, I knew I wouldn't be disappointed. Thank you all very very much. I've had depression as long as I've been alive for a million reasons that well - I'm going to a counselor for that hehe <~-~>
But this lonely thing... ugh.
I think I will try the library - I actually would love a tabletop D&D campaign too... perhaps now is the time to find a group. I admit to being ridiculously nervous about walking into such things... but I have to try. Some great ideas and I thank you all.
Scope, that's actually a great idea... for most people. Unfortunately the area I live in contains mostly what I'd consider "faux" Christians - they talk the talk, they tell you 'we love everyone even if they have comitted sin - God will always forgive you' - then they're absolutely merciless. It's part of why I've kind of removed my religion from the church - I'm sure there are some great churches out there... just not here (part of the reason I wound up in this situation - not that anyone could know that).
I'm going to see if I can dig up a D&D campaign somewhere I think... that's probably the absolute simplest least intrusive way to get myself out there... I think.
And then I miss this old thing I did an age and a half ago - Foam fighting; where we'd bash the living crap out of each other with foam swords. Sillly, but fun!
Anyway, thank you all again, for the advice and for just being so kind to me th last year - I don't know how to explain how much I've needed the confidence boost that I've gotten here on the forums. *group hug* <~.~> the squirrel is thankful for friends even when he cannot see them physically. They're still there and that's what matters.

I'm there with you Mist. I have been feeling the same way of late. I just recently posted a journal entry on DA that is remarkably similar to what you have expressed here. I have never made friends easily because I am extraordinarily shy, and I don't interact with anyone outside of work or my family. In fact, I have a hard time even thinking of people as friends simply because I don't know that they feel the same about me. I live alone and I don't date, of course the fact that I am a huge SciFi/Comic/Video Game geek doesn't help. The only people I have to share my interests with are you folks here on the boards. (If you all would just give in and move to Ohio!
) Unfortunately, I don't have any answers for you but I want you to know that you are not alone in feeling this way. In fact you have made me feel a little better just by letting me know that I am not the only one experiencing this. Hang in there, we'll beat the blues.
I hear ya Buckeye <x_X> I hear ya. It's good to know I'm not alone in my being alone hehe <X_X>
On a positive - I asked my brother about D&D, as I remembered that he was in a group - and it sounds like I may have a group to play with. Maybe. Possibly. I don't know yet >.< I have questions to be asked and answered yet.

Hey, I move away from Ohio because you never called, you never wrote. I was there 37 years and nothin'. Not a peep from you.

I did call, they must have changed the fraking area codes again.
Yes, because I can't log onto it for whatever reason.
