Sending love, care and a bit of poetry, Erin. David Whyte: "This is the bright home in which I live, this is where I ask my friends to come, this is where I want to love all the things it has taken me so long to learn to love. This is the temple of my adult aloneness and I belong to that aloneness as I belong to my life. There is no house like the house of belonging." --Scott

This resonated deep in my soul. Friendship does feel more challenging these days, when we communicate primarily in text, not by voice or face-to-face.

Holding you in my thoughts, Erin.

This exactly! I have said this same thing so many times. Extra complicated because not only am I only attracted to other girls, but that attraction is VERY rare irl. For me personally, I want a physically close partnership emotionally without the roommate/living together elements. I want to share my life, not my kitchen. Lol 🀣🀣

Also it's very unfair we have such good internet people who would be great at this but we all love so far apart 😁

β€œI want people in my life who remember me of their own volition.” I feel this deeply and I feel seen. I see you, too β™₯️
