I had a lot of issues finding friends because I have high expectations of friends and for awhile I was stuck in two different worlds. I was 18 and in a serious relationship with a guy 5 years older than me. I couldn't (and still can't) go out to the bars with his/our friends who are in their late 20's or early 30's and thus I'm not accepted into their social circles. But yet, I had and still have a hard time finding those who I can relate to that are my own age.
I have quite a few friends, and by that, I mean we hang out once in awhile but I never talk to them about serious things. The only real close friend of mine, who has never betrayed me and been there for me is my boyfriend.
I find it especially difficult because I have no support system besides my mother. I figure all relationship issues out by myself, with no help or venting really. I don't like to bother people with my complaints and problems regarding relationships.
