But your virtual pal-ship, BFF-ship, Sincere Admirers Who Are Not Whack Jobs, etc., is pretty damn considerable. Look at yourself. Look at your followers. I'd hazard a guess that most of us consider ourselves your friend, or aspire to that honor.

I don't either and am married, my two closest friends here now are unmarried and hit the club and bar scene. I'm closer to 40 than 30. Been there done that.

Sniff.<br /><br />But seriously...if you want to meet some girlfriends I'm sure there's some kind of group you could join. Something to do with crochet or a book club? Or the moms of other children your kids go to school with? (I know, but sometimes you just have to suck it up.)<br /><br />I'll tell you this...the older I get, the pickier I've become.

My best friend is my husband and he does nothing but watch sports all day and then I have to beg for his attention and he won't tell me when things are cute, either. <br /><br />We can just hang out and be not delightful and socially anxious together.Amanda @ It's Blogworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14919340979575037179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089550408837678179.post-57217980747593520522010-04-06T19:22:38.203-07:002010-04-06T19:22:38.203-07:00Well, I do have a few friends who you could rent, ...Well, I do have a few friends who you could rent, borrow...or lease.

Now, someone who doesn't smell? That is definitely important. <br /><br />To be serious though, I think it's hard to make friends once you are over 25 and spend most of your time with people who don't have graham cracker in their hair...Logical Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00107961721466815295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089550408837678179.post-75773636884747154152010-04-06T18:49:37.468-07:002010-04-06T18:49:37.468-07:00Whoa...women talk about recipes on their free time...Whoa...women talk about recipes on their free time? I suppose that makes sense, because Merkin cooks me all these fancy things from time to time. Speaking of pierogies, Merkin made some last week, and prior to that, I didn't know what they were. They're delicious! Olivia knows her stuff!<br /><br />And I have a gay friend named David who would do all those girly things with you. Would you be down with having a gay friend? Or I could let you borrow Merkin...but every other weekend.

I think having kids is a turnoff for single women out there, especially if they like to drink and you don't. <br /><br />I think your posts are delightful, so how bad can you be? ;)<br />You can be my friend.writer.elh@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01190878498741158939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089550408837678179.post-85188120176400963652010-04-06T17:38:39.159-07:002010-04-06T17:38:39.159-07:00I could have written this post.
