    hey Buffy, not much advice here, but I can tell you that I often feel the same way, especially since I moved to a different part of the country from all my friends and it's now a five hour trip to see them
    but, I do have a few ideas just from what I do myself. For example, I like to keep fit so I go to a very sociable outdoor exercise 'bootcamp' style club a few times per week (I find this much more social than the gym I go to). I also do part time classes at the local college.
    Maybe you could have a think about some activities you could do in your local area that would get you out of the house and meeting people? A search on the internet or local newspapers might give you some ideas of what is around, but I bet there will be a lot more than you think. One of the best ones for me (in my old town) was amateur dramatics, which was totally different from what I'd done before and was a great experience. You'll find something that is fun and that involves meeting new friends.

    Same for me too buffy. I moved to a new city about 7 years ago and for the past 2, close to 3 years now, I have been working on cam. A year before that I started online vanilla work. So close to 4 years now I have been somewhat isolated. I do have a few friends who live here, but they don't know what I do, and 1 of them helps run an organization for women (she is super busy) and the other has 4 kids and her own business (also super busy) my boyfriend is no fun to talk to about work, so it does get lonely.

    I like the idea above about getting out and doing something in a group setting. Maybe I can meet people like that. I am not social outside my home anymore so I don't even know how to meet people. Plus I have made myself somewhat anti social which does not help at all. But ya, I know how you feel buffy I guess we just have to get out there and socialize lol. That's easier said than done for me, though.

    When I was younger my life was more active, I used to play sports go out dancing with my friends. Most of my close friends moved away and the only way I can keep in touch with them now days is from Facebook (although recently I deleted my account on there I'm just not much into social networking wesites more into forums like this one). From time to time I go to concerts, festivals and parades events to meet people. I don't know with me when it comes to meeting new people keeping in touch fades away and with friends that I've known for years no matter how far we manage to stay in contact some of them come back to California where I'm living to visit and when they come out I'll be hanging out with them .

    Another thing I deal with is that I'm getting lonely and miss being in intimate relationship. I've been single for about 4 years and when I try to find someone for me. I don't want to reveal them about doing webcam for money even though they could find out without me telling. It's a hard subject for me to bring up for anyone that maybe interested in me. I wish could find a man that be supported of what I'm doing that's why for me I just stick to being single. One day want to get out of doing webcam but then it be apart of my past and also worry about what if the guy still would not accept me for doing it.

    It seems like we can all relate in a way. I am pretty anti-social, but I do like to keep a good small circle whenever I can. Espically with the work we do, many people judge, or have a negative outlook on us. I would suggest: joining a gym, classes (cooking, dancing, etc) whatever is in your interest to meet people who share a similar hobby. Volunteering always feels good and you could meet people like that, even doing part-time jobs just to get a social circle going.
