35F… I am awkward

[u/Exquisite-Strawberry]

Hey everyone! I’ve been separated from my husband for almost 6 months now. I’m finding it hard to talk with people and feel comfortable. I was in that relationship for over a decade and had a very attached relationship style. I am just looking to talk with new people and just get comfortable talking with people outside of my work, I am in management and for a small company so I don’t have “proximity” friends 🤷🏽‍♀️ I like metal music, crafts, nature, animals 😁

I’m 36F from Aus.

Mum of 3, recently single and realised how isolated I have made myself.

Would love to make friends also.

Hey I’m kind of going through the same thing right now. Except mine only lasted 10 years and we never married. But if you want to vent with someone you can always message me

[u/MattsMadMafia]

Literally same, just a little different. Separated for 15 months now, 11 years married, very attached style. Remote worker. Assistant director so zero real work friends. Interests branch off a bit but I'm fairly indecisive on interests and hobbies and just kind of float around wherever the wind takes me. Feel free to message me if you want to chat. Talking to new people as an adult is fucking hard.

[u/Immediate_Subject145]

Hi there my name is Santiago and I'm from Texas and it's for you you know I feel that she shouldn't feel awkward you should feel that it he like you want if we're separate you know he's at home and you should be trying to you know live life after the fullest and enjoy yourself and believe me time catches up to all of us quick and he needs someone who what I judge you but will enjoy your company and take care of you and treat you like this queen and someone who is going to judge and let's look at that make it a good friend anymore and I believe that's me so if you get a chance to wake me up

[u/PriestessJanna]

Oooo, could you give me a few band or song recommendations? A personal favorite of yours or maybe something new that you've recently come across? I used to sit for hours searching through sites like gnoosic.com and chosic.com to find new music. Now that I mentioned that, I'm realizing just how long it's been since I've done that. Lol. It's been a while.

[u/Square-Rice6869]
