Dear crystal:

You wrote in your recent post that you are “fortunate enough to find a few others like (you)”, trustworthy, that is. And you are now “selectively-associated-with-people girl”- excellent, wise.

In your original post you wrote: “I do live a thoroughly mechanical and slightly boring life… its stealing away my happiness and confidence”-

you have good relationships with family members and a few friends you trust, so the mechanical and boring life has to do with not having a man in your life?

If so, can you not be a selectively-associated-with-men girl, getting to know a few men and selecting a trustworthy man?
