Is it unusual to not have friends?
Relationship Stress / by Daftpool

...See more I'm 49, married, and the father of 3 kids. And I do not have any friends. There are a few people I know fairly well at work, but it begins and ends there at the office. I had a couple of friends a few years back, but they betrayed my trust and both friendships ended  at around the same time, and both were - coincidentally - from taking several hundreds of dollars from me. But even before that, I just didn't have many friends. When I meet someone new, I feel extremely uncomfortable and can't get away from the conversation quickly enough. And, to top it off, I don't feel comfortable talking to other men. It's almost a feeling of not understanding how to communicate with someone of the same gender. And - to be fair - I do not like sports, cars, and a lot of other things men stereotypically like. Does this make me weird?
