You sound similar to me, O. I've got many friends but they come in
varing degrees. True good friends? Very few. Other than family now,
I've got what I consider 3 true friends but none of them live here. We
email each other every single day though (for the past 20 years or so).
Mia was my last very true physical friend and then she died. Kind of
makes you not want to get new friends.

But I will always have a dog ... They love unconditionally I am sure
you got that from your Mia too.

Something to think about?
