All due respect Mr. Bond, what is one suppose to do to NOT be alone? I go out with friends to eat, to Church, I mingle but all in all today is a electronic world. Everything seems yo be done on the internet. People don't mingle as much in person. I don't feel like I should have to access the web to find a mate, just not me. I hate when people make the comment....you need to date, find someone...lol yes it's not that easy greasy. Being alone is not fun Tad. My son as u know has his own life and it gets pretty lonely at times. I try to keep busy and not think about it. Only thing we'd can do is surround ourselves with friends, have confidence in ourselves, hold our heads up high and be the person we want to be. Nothing more attractive than a great personality full of confidence in ones self .
