Maybe a woman without children is not a misfit, but most women my age have them and are either in the work world or at home with their kids. I'm kind of in neither place, so I'm pretty lonely. I'm a misfit because of other things besides that.
I would like to talk in person with someone. I feel like I go through my day without speaking sometimes. I go to my job. I can walk in there, do my job, and walk out without saying a word. I have another job that is more social, but the only other English speaking person there seems to avoid me. My boyfriend works almost all the time. I play music in two jam sessions, but I show up, play the music and go home. I don't even know most people's names even though I've been going to these jams for a long time. Many musicians are social misfits, I guess. You'd have to be to want to lock yourself in a basement and play the same tune over and over again a million times.
Anyway, maybe I could join something where people talk to each other. But what?
