Hi Julia,

Congratulations for being brave enough to make the changes and for coming so far.  When you change, the people around you change.  The people who used to be your friends (friends with the old you) no longer hold the same appeal.  This is all part of the process and I agree with Anita when she says that this is easier done when alone than when facing the added challenges that exist within relationships.

I can’t tell you how long it will take for you to form new friendships but I can tell you that you will be more open to attract positive, supportive people to you than you have been in the past.  The Universe has a way of bringing to us what or who we need at any given moment in time.  Join groups that support subjects that you are interested in which might relate to personal development and awareness, or could be totally unrelated.  Friendships will develop naturally where common interest is involved.

Once again, congratulations for coming this far.

Peggy
