I'm having kind of a rough time..

I used to have a lot of friends when I lived in ohio. 2 people I considered my brothers. 5 people I hung with daily, and at least 15 people I saw weekly. Well 2 years ago, I moved to southwest Oklahoma with a girl I was in love with. (She's military) At first it was fine, I thought I wouldn't have any problem making friends. I'm funny, I'm smart, and I love being around people. Now, 2 years later, and I don't have any friends. I don't fit in here, people just don't like me. I think I try to hard. Me and the girl got married, and were really happy! But we work conflicting schedules and only see each other twice a week. I kinda broke down today when I was looking for my spare keys in one of our closets. I opened the closet and saw a poker set I had bought it a year ago because I thought "man, when I get some buddies they're gonna love coming over and playing poker." "I'd better buy it now so I'll have it ready for my future buds." It's still in the plastic wrapping. I have never opened it. It just kind of felt like getting kicked in the nuts. Only a few of my friends from back home talk to me, and it's maybe a couple times a month. My wife has friends, but every time we go out they just tell her that I'm weird and awkward. I only have one true friend left, and that's my dad. He lives in Phoenix,(12 hours away) he talks to me at least a few times a week. And we just got home yesterday from spending the holiday with him and his wife. But we had to leave, and I've been a little upset since. I'm always alone. [spoiler]im not trying to get attention, I'm just venting I guess. [/spoiler]

    Ah dude, at least your not living in a small beach town where if you don't fit in you're out'! I've been so used to not having friends, but it depends on your job and daily activities! As long as you are engaging other people each day, that's enough human social interaction I need! With that being said, I have alot of family who I see quite abit... But don't worry.. I do miss having close buds that you do everything with and feel completely relaxed. My best friend moved to England, so i moved back to the city... Feels better in different ways... I'm so glad I left that town... I was a total outcast... But now it's cool!
