I have a fantastic virtual life which has loads of friends from all over the world within it. Whether through SG, or on any of the other sites I have used over the years.

I also have a fantastic job with great staff and professional friends.

I don't have any close friends or indeed any friends outside of the above situations really. I have aquaintances but they already have their networks mainly centered around their families and children. I feel it even more at this time of year. Earlier I went up to Greenwich Park where they are filming "Wolfman" and watched all the happy groups whether families or friends having a great time with their picnics and fun.

I took a few photos, had an ice cream and then retreated back to my car and after awhile left the park came home and logged back on. This is not how it is supposed to be. It's not for the want of trying to break the cycle either but it just isnt happening and everytime I hear someone say there is someone for everyone or I should be waiting for the right person to come along I want to scream, as I have been waiting far to long.

I am getting more and more cynical every day thinking that this is indeed it and having made my choices a few years ago when others were having lots of fun I am now reaping the consequences of such decisions and situations. There were those around me at the time who were trying to give me advice and I wouldn't listen as I was happy. It's just a pity I didnt take their advice a little more seriously.

So my social life has become reliant on Flickr, Facebook and SG Chat. Not that there is anything bad with any of these places.
