*sighs* I need more adult friends 🙃

Looking For Friends Still ^^

Someone could always need someone else to talk too ♡

Here For Anyone!

My dear whisper,

How is your breeding going?

Mine is very up and down, one WWW and rather a lot of EEEs.

I spent a week with my mum last week, so not much excersise as she is 90. But we sat by the pool eating sandwiches and laughed at the kids.

Quite nice.

No wifi... aaagh...

Hello ^^

Oof... to be honest. I just woke up so I not yet had a chance to breed yet. But I got several studs to put up, a few mares to set for breeding, Embyros to make and send out, straws to send out... all the things! ✨️

Aww, I am happ you got 1 WWW!!! That's better than 0! Congrats! ♡

Wow! 90! That's amazing!! Me and the hubby just bought new pool floats so I am dying to get in sometime this week when we can. Its great you can bond with your mom. We travel soon in a few weeks to go visit my family and I can't wait!! We will be celebrating my big 30 birthday together, I not spent a birthday with them in almost 3 yrs Dx

This is exactly how I feel. In real life I literally have zero friends. Im 23 years old and all I do is stay at home. Granted I do have a husband and kids. It's hard for me to keep and maintain friendships because I have extreme social anxiety. Also when I wouldn't respond to a text for a few days I just automatically think they hate me and are no longer my friend. I'm very much a social hermit where socializing takes up my physical and mental energy.

But a few texts start you off Quality (well done). You realise you are normal as you share, it puts things in perspective. I've mostly been a loner, I really understand your statement 'socializing takes mental energy'. But I work hard now at being loyal to the groups I do belong to. I've figured out that people are very variable. So respond in your own time, the ones that don't mind will respond back.

My sister got the sociability chip, she has just come off holiday with a friend. I can only dream of that. But what the hell I'm OK.

Whispers reply to my ramble above really cheered me up.

Except of course no one in my family or friends have their very own pool! Pretty green with envy as I do love to swim. But I do get to see them all more often. Distances in the UK are a lot smaller which makes it easier.

My niece is getting maried next year, we are all looking forward to that big time.

I do truly appreciate my parents and my sister. I sometimes go weeks even months without reaching out to them but when we do talk its like no time has passed. They still know who I truly am without having to put on a 'mask'. I do have a hard time connecting with my extended family. Ever since I went through depression as a early teenager I started to isolate myself from my cousins. I've tried to reach out to them and rebuild those relationships but it seems they don't really want to communicate much. Whenever I visit my dad's side of the family for holidays I feel pretty much ignored and that I'm just there to be there. Nobody starts any conversations with me and I can never find an opening to talk or even know what to say. I've started just avoiding going to get togethers on that side just because of the fact its a Rollercoaster of emotions and mental stress. My mom's side of the family is always fun. People engage with me, ask me about whats going on with my life. We play games as a family and I don't feel like I have to really put on a 'mask', I can just be my goofy self.

Yeah I get that, my sister goes on trips with friends aswell. I don't know how she does it. She's also very sweet and caring of a person. I also love to swim though I can only backfloat and doggie paddle 🤣 I love water slides too but only tube ones without it being dark and one where you sit in a tube. Speaking of weddings my cousin is getting married this August! I'm very happy for them.

Social Anxiety! I happily spend my time alone or with family at home. I live with my sister. The only other people I see are my family and family's friends who are all welcome here (I don't have to leave home). Including family, most of our friends are cowboy/cow girls who work on cattle ranches and rodeo. We talk about horses, rodeos, old times and we cook for them. This does not cause anxiety for me.

Going away from home is much more difficult, but lately my Mom, siblings and I have been getting together once a month at a quiet inn with a really big beautiful pool and outdoor spaces. it is great but even there I sneak away from them for a few hours and stay in the room in the dark just to get my anxiety calmed. They know.

My horse, my dog, reading and HEE are my escape from the world havens! DIY therapy!

I don't have social anxiety but I've become more reclusive and happy to be at home as I age. The big friend groups that came with school years have mostly split up and moved all around the country. I have a couple hometown people now who I'll hang out with for playdates with our kids, but I'm super happy not being a social butterfly.

Awww *hugs* you totally aren't alone in that area.

I am the same way. I hardly have ever had friends, i was always the quiet shy kid. I have like one best friend that I grew up with since Pre-K but she moved to another state with her hubby 5yrs ago and then me and my hubby moved as well to another state 3 yrs ago (but probably gonna move back home XD). I am very much a hermit crab as well, I have such bad social anxiety and feel so awkward when it comes to meet new people. I am always in my head thinking they wont like me and with texts I think the same as you too. I wish I knew why it was so hard for me to make friends, I am honestly a nice person just idk. I am very much glued to my husband, he's like my best friend. At the moment, I only have 2 service dogs and a kitty so they my kids at this time. We been trying to have a baby since Nov. 2025 but no luck yet :/ However, I am open to chat and new friendships if you are interested ♡ I am here for you! For anyone really ♡
