So, I'm in a bit of a tizzy and have been for some time.

I have a lot of people in my life... Friends in various different forms, but I just don't feel like I have a very close, or best friendship. I'm sure I'm not alone here, but I'm just not dealing with it at the moment.

I don't have anyone I can talk to about "things" and I don't know if I have anyone I could lean on if I needed it. My closest friend has moved a couple of thousand km's away and that leaves me pretty lonely.

My husband and I are the only ones in our social circle without children, and although we desperately want kids, we've never resented our friends or had a hard time around them. Have they moves on to other people who share the common bond of children?

My next question is how do you make more friends? I mean close ones?

To make matters worse, I work FIFO, so I'm nowhere near home for half of my life.

This makes me sad.
