Most of my friends are married and/or living in a different state/country. This is a major part of my problem. Honestly, the reason I got involved in the aveiros I did was because I needed to feel like I was connecting to something; I wanted to feel less alone.
And that's part of the reason that GYE helps me - I feel like I'm part of something, a group of friends... I get support - and can give it as well. Thank you!
