Looking for some socializing, too lonely
Hi everyone,
im trying again. I’m 65 and health challenged but work like a dog, taking care of my own needs, my husband now, and my pets. The days are pretty full but I miss chatting with people that might share some interests. I love animals and wildlife, especially cats and birds, I also love music, from popular to classical. I enjoy being out in nature but am usually home. People deprived. I watch tv shows at night mostly on my computer, to unwind from the day, but just too lonely now. Would love to make a friend or two, maybe we share common interests 🙂

Hi there. I know it’s been almost a month since you posted. But I would enjoy chatting with you.
59, female, widowed 12 years. I retired early so have a lot of free time. I share some of your interests. If you would like to chat I’m here.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, kind. I would like to be your friend. You are welcome to message me.
Hello
How are you?
I'm a 61 y/o married woman. I'm employed. I like making friends, even chatting by email. You sounded you've been busy but I'm looking forward hearing from you! Thank you.
Hello, I would love to be your friends let’s get to know ourselves better.

I'm sorry you are feeling lonely. I wish I was there to give you a big hug and to talk with you. But I guess I will send a virtual hug your way. I know it's not the same.
I wish I could do a lot more for you than just post up words online. I can relate to the pain you must be feeling. I am also going through a time of loneliness. I know it can be hard because you just want friends but don't know where to look. I wish I was with you in person because I would really like to be your friend.
P. S. What kinds of pets do you have? I have a bird. A sun conure.
