Ah I kinda know what ya mean.
My best friend will always be my best friend, but over the years we have really changed, and right now, we really don't seem to enjoy any of the same activities.
We're both in relationships but I still like to go clubbing and have a bit of fun. She(age 24) says she has outgrown all that, and prefers to go for meals, or just a few drinks in the local.
She's entitled to her preferences, but it can be annoying when we can't agree on what to do on a Friday night.
We're all going away on hols together this year and just deciding on a location was a bit of a nightmare. She wanted quiet and relaxing, I wanted young and lively - we have to compromise on everything.
Sometimes I do wish I had a pal who was into all the things I wanna do, I often joke about holding auditions for a new best friend, but I guess I just gotta take the hand I've been dealt and make the most of it.
As much as we argue, I'd miss her if she wasn't around.0 -

ok first thanks thanks to all who responded with helpful advice and second - Im a girl!!!!
I have thought about going away on my own but I think I would feel a bit funny bout it. I was meant to be going travelling but guess what I introduced the girl I was supposed to be going with to her new freakin boyfirend and now she's not going. Annoying. I suppose it would make life simpler if I was in a relationship too but for the moment that doesn't look likely as I never meet anyone I fancy and now with the lack of social buddies it's getting harder and harder to get out there to meet people Im getting really frustrated and I know there is no magic wand that will sort it but it kinda helps hearing other peoples stories. Has anyone else found themselves in a similar situation? what did they do to get out of it? 0 -

Yeah, its called Ireland. People say they are independent, but they arent really. I know of so many people who are in a relationship just simply out of the fear of being single, actually I know people who are married just to keep their parents happy. I have a close friend who is living with someone that she doesnt even really get on with, but she has the whole 5 year plan going, and she has also never been single so it scares her. She also said "well at least I can afford a house now" messed up society or what !!:eek:0 -

Pighead knows for a fact that Modding improves peoples lives. 90% of the Mods on here were in exactly the same position as you. Stay at home losers who were becoming more lonely with every passing day. Modding has given these ex-misfits power, respect and huge cocks/love buttons.
The only question remaining is what forum should you Mod. Pighead recommends going for the Outdoor Pursuits in the Sports drop down menu. To be Frank, the current Mod Evil Phil is shit. His attitude towards the forum seems to be "Fcuk the forum, I'm too busy showing off my newly enhanced Mod-Cock".
If you don't know anything about Outdoor Pursuits fear not. Half the Mods here haven't a clue on their subject matter. For example, one of the soccer mods is a girl. No, seriously. Just do a quick google on outdoor pursuits. Start a few threads about dogging and bobs your uncle.
Let Pighead know how you get on. Stay strong girl.xxx0 -
