Phoenix girl,
I'm really sorry that you're feeling so lonely.
After the new year you might try to answer ads in your local paper; besides romantic ads, most papers also have a friend section: people looking for "just" friends. Obviously, lots of people (on this board and off) have problems making close friends, especially once you're out of school. (I do.) You could put an ad in for a friend(s) close to your age and put some things that you would enjoy doing (movies, getting coffee, whatever). That way when someone answers you KNOW that they are also finding it difficult to make friends. Just take it slow. And if you decide to try this, be very careful. Meet in a public place, etc.
