Looking for Friends in My Area

Elektra

I wish someone lived in my area I could trust and make friends with. I'm 33 and a pansexual poly genderfluid individual who just wants friends. I have DID and my partner alter with our, "family" has been missing my late husband too. I feel so alone in RL right now...

      Bi/pan, polyamorous, grayace, and genderfluid myself (specifically genderfaun, which means I experience masculine and nonbinary genders but not feminine ones). I wear shirts and bracelets with the colors of pride flags to let other LGBTQ+ people know I'm one of them.

      Hey I'm 29 live in the conservative state of Oklahoma and I am Bisexual. There are communities and groups for LGBTQ+ community like on Facebook and such. That's where I had to turn for some needed support. And it's not so much about labels but more just being you and start with some simple conversations. 🤗🗣️

      Hey, let's all focus on what's important, which is someone feeling lonely and needing friendly voices around them. Which I totally relate to. I feel so alone IRL too, and it sucks. I want a best friend more than anything. When you hit the time in life when all your friends get married and have kids it's hard to keep seeing people, let alone when you're depressed and anxious and you want to see people but at the same time you want to just curl up in bed... I hear you. And I'm a bicurious 44-year-old recently-divorced single parent. If you live in Massachusetts, message me and we'll have coffee. 😁

      Labels are important to an extent like if you're polyamorous you want to look for other polyamorous people only. They state your preferences which is valid but also not trying to ignore others...

      S c r e w what that other person said. You shouldn't have to hide in a closet to make friends. Try wearing things that signal your labels to other LGBTQ+ people and hopefully you'll make some friends that way.

        @dysturbation xPORFIRIOx was not implying anyone hide in a closet. I completely understand what they are saying. Why can't we all just say Hi and talk with other human beings without being labeled?

          @Henrietta.Orange Labels are to humans as boxes are to cats. It's one thing to get in the box yourself, it's another to be forced into it. Labels help marginalized groups find each other. This entire site runs on that concept.

          @Henrietta.Orange If you don't like labels then why are you posting on my issue?

      😥 I hope the best for you. You are not alone and if it is friendship you seek, feel free to message me, or really whomever you want to. The worst case you find out they aren't as open to talking about the same things and you find someone else to conversate with. Just the act of getting to know sometimes history and idiosyncracies is a beautiful enough process that just being truly present and curious becomes an adventure worth exploring.

      I don't want to be offensive and really want to help...But to the average everyday person, if you're giving them all these labels, it's going to freak a lot of people out. If my comment is angering you, I'm sorry I am just being very honest. Perhaps drop the labels until after you get to know someone. I'm not saying "hide who you are" but 99% of folks will accept gay, trans, and bi with no issue...But throwing out labels where most don't even know the meaning to is just going to cause grief. All my opinion.

          @Elektra I’ll say as a person who doesn’t have any labels but just loves people in all their differences. Their are people out their like myself who have friends from all kinds of backgrounds. But if you look for people who are only exactly like you, you might miss out on some meaningful connections.

        @xPORFIRIOx That's why you ask instead of remaining ignorant. Conversation is a 2 way street and there has to be sharing of information. I see them all as ice breakers. If you don't like that than you are either not interested on the person/Conversation, in which case, state so civilly and remove yourself. It's easier to get along with other humans, more than people make it.
