I'm not sure how normal that is but I'm a 30 year old woman that has the same issues. I don't have any friends either. My life is my honey and my dog. I never had prostitution issues, but I gather you probably have a hard time trusting people since you've seen the worst out of them. I also doubt a prostitute would have a lot of female friends. People, for the most part, are judgemental and stupid. You're not missing out on anything.

it's good that you stopped the prostitute things.

And yes it's completely normal.
it's best to have no friends than to have one that doesn't respect you or loyal to you.

I only have 2 close friends who are loyal and respectful to me.

I suggest you get close to people from PenPal or Facebook

it takes time to find the right kind of person to start a real buddy relationship with. just hang out with people and don't look to much on the outside of people but also look in the inside. it is also important to be interested in these people that are potential friends because people can't be interested in you if you're not interested in them

Nah - people can be lovely.
And I think friendships are extremely important to your mental health.

Don't have to force it - volunteer, get involved with your kid's school, join a class... you'll meet people soon enough :)

By the way, it's not "abnormal" - it happens. Life carries us very far from where we started sometimes hey?

I'm in the same boat minus the prostitution thing. I think xinooo had a good idea about PenPal and Facebook thing. I don't have "friends" but do keep up with ppl on FB. It's pretty much on a superficial level, but it helps to get a quick hello every now and then.

I try to focus on my family and let my man know that since I lack in friendships that his company is important to me. I just tend to feel like other ppl won't understand me, so I really don't try. Besides same sex friendships cause a lot of "competition" and opposite sex friendships can cause concern for your husband.

Also, you could be a "one friend at a time" type of person and there's nothing wrong with that.
