Hi, Bradley. Sounds to me like you did the right thing. We can't know what will be right for you. Don't blame us if we guess wrong. Good for you for sticking with your choices. Don't understand why you would have trouble making friends. You attract people to you here. Perhaps the place you live does not have many people who are your "type" of person. I've noticed that I make lots of friends in some parts of the country, and can't relate to the people in others. Generally, people like someone who is nice to them. I'm sure you know how to do that. Hint -- they like to be treated to drinks or meals, or some other gesture of giving.
