Perfect, couldn't help but smile when I read it. But do I really have to like her dog?

Well put and I have to admit I have been guilty of this...the comfort is kind of addictive..but then yeah, it is kind of ridiculous to complain about not meeting people when that is all you do. Really, the more one goes out the easier it is to do, and the more potential they can find in their community. I have joined hiking groups and writing groups and really enjoyed both. I want to start writing more now, and maybe even try to start some kind of outdoor music group. There is no end to what you can manifest in your life, and I echo what has been said in this thread, fill your life so full that a single person cannot make or break it, but if you are just waiting around for that one person to complete your life then you are being powerfully patient for the wrong thing. Start generating ideas and activities and see how the people fall in.
