It's also really frustrating when friends don't text back, or reach out to see how things went yesterday, or how I'm doing today, I'm sick and tired of people not showing up for me I don't know how to fix that.. it's not like you can come up with new friends or family out of the blue at 55. I like my solitude but that doesn't mean that my friends don't have to check in on me from time to time...😒
