I live alone and have minimal contact with my children. I don't drink anymore and I'm trying to quit smoking and get healthy. I've lost many friends due to age and other things and I isolated quite a bit when I was in my addiction. I'm on a very low fixed income and it's hard to find things to do that don't cost money and I don't relish doing these things alone. I'm trying to eat as healthy as I can and I'd really love to meet some new people to get and give support and motivation. Quite frankly I've a weird sense of humor, I'm more progressive than most boomers are and while I'm an atheist, I look to lead a spiritual holistic life. It kind of makes me the odd man out among people my age. Loneliness is a huge factor and I know Is be happier amongst friends of any age that understand the difficulties I face. I'm a great person to have around when you're in need of support. Service to others is key in life. That's about it. 🤷🏻♀️

I don’t know where you live but my area has a app called Nextdoor that allows you to connect to people in my area. When my husband passed I reached out to people my age group for anyone who would like to meet for coffee. You’d be surprise how many people are in the same position as you are. We now have a group started on that app and if anyone wants to join the group they are welcomed. Good luck!

🤗 you sound like my spirit sister! I am in that same spot. I make myself go out to free things like galleries, museums, city spaces for people watching. I engage with all. I smile and do my best to find joy in small small things! Keep moving...

@Caradot Well, once I get through the panics I'm going to try that! There's got to be somewhere I could go for free around here!
😥 I guess I'm the oddball out! I am a firm believer in Jesus Christ! And I believe in a heaven! And I'm going there one day!
@Reallyhopeful And I fully support that for you.. it's just not my way. 🤷🏻♀️
