So I had a fun night out with friends last night. Didn't think about anything or dwell on anything. It was nice to get out and just have some fun, it felt somewhat normal. I was thinking back on something that my mother-in-law told me about her divorce. She told me that she wouldn't have made it through if she didn't have someone to help her through it. She had a guy that she hung out with that was just there for her as a friend as a shoulder to cry on. I don't have that right now. I struggle with that a little bit because she ended up getting remarried to the guy that was helping her through that time. I guess my question is that is there anything wrong with finding someone to share my struggles with, as a friend? I have no intention of looking for love or for anything other than just someone to talk to. But I am lonely and it would be nice to have someone to talk to. Anyone have a similar experience???
