I moved from a large city to a small town in another state over a year ago now to take care of my grandpa.

I’m an extrovert and I can make friends mostly anywhere, I’m a little more limited here because of small town and I’m gay and transgender (I’m stealth. My family and like 6 other people in the whole town know about this). I’ve got some friends but recently my best friend here quit the job we had together and recently jumped headfirst into a new relationship and now we never see each other. Everyone knows I can’t just leave the house and go hang out, and when I can I feel guilty for getting time to myself.

I miss my independence and being able to go where I want, I also wish my friends would come over and hang out instead of expecting me to meet them. I basically have an open house, anyone is welcome over anytime even to sleep if they’ve had to much to drink and my friends always say I can sleep at theirs if I drink in town and need to sleep it off which I would do but I rarely drink in town unless I have a DD.

It’s just lonely as hell, sometimes if I’m really lucky my friends from home come over and visit but that’s also hard as I’m a few states over.

Just tired of being lonely.
