Hi Tracey,
I just wanted to say that I agree with you that society today is not what it used to be, and what people call “friends” nowadays can be a mixed bag of, well, anything. Especially with all the social media, etc. I’m also a very busy mom and wife with a full time job, and I greatly value my free time. I love spending it reading, going for walks, just spending time outside, etc. Right now, my best “friends” are my daughter and husband, and maybe my sister who lives in another state (we keep in touch by email). I’m a kind and outgoing person, but just really haven’t met anyone in years who I have found that friend connection with. I also have many different ideas about things, and definitely think “outside the box”, so just really don’t feel like I fit in in a lot of social situations. Like you have mentioned, though, I am not unhappy with the way things are. I’d rather spend my time in my own company or with close family, than to spend it with someone who I don’t trust or connect with.
