| It sounds like it's time to let it go she has no interest in a friendship anymore. I would say give her a few months and see what happens. If you hear nothing, then you will know. I was dumped by an EX-friend of 17 years, about 10 years ago. On one hand, it was relieved as I was fed up with his BS ... |

| After 25 years of what I thought was a close friendship with a woman in her late 70's, she made it clear that needed to take care of herself and didn't have time to talk on the phone as much. She also said that she was going through some personal issues. Being that we had been close, I gave her some... |

| A few examples: 1. At my last synagogue, where things were incredibly toxic, I would end up getting upset with that group. They would blame the victim A. By reminding me that I have autism "Well, you have autism and XYZ" :x. Oh that makes my blood boil just talking about it 2. I had a form... |

| I think volunteering is a great alternative if you don't find a meet-up that you like. As for meet-ups, they are for people who have shared interests as as well something in common. For instance, I recently joined a new singles Jewish singles group for people in their 40's and 50's. I will tell you ... |

I could work on talking about current events and things like current shows.
For instance, I am watching a new show called "The Regime," which stars Kate Winslet |

| I saw the title of your post and the answer is, not at all. If you read through the bible, you will see that God always chose outcasts. For instance, Moses had a problem with stuttering. Also, God doesn't judge our outward appearances but our character as well as the heart. If you also read about th... |

| This one happened years ago during my first job Back in the day, I worked at a fast-food restaurant and my main role was maintaining the dining room. Back then, I didn't want to pay for my food, even with a discount. I also didn't ever communicate that I was hungry. I ate out of the garbage for a fe... |

This one is so triggering...
One time while having a conversation with someone, another woman pulled her away from me. However, she felt threatened by me. There were lots of times when she would get upset whenever some of her other friends wanted to sit with me. |

| It was never my intention to get away from them, rather, I have been talking about them for other reasons. One of those is because they have lots of connections. However, I will stay quiet and probably work on my goals on my own. |

Goals:
I want to head to grad school and earn a master's and a PhD. I also would like to build up some skills sets and get into research especially since I have a talent in math. |

| We had great weather and great skies yesterday even though there were clouds in the skies. We had a partial eclipse where the 88% of the sun was covered. Temp slightly dropped and we had a slightly dim orange color which was beautiful. |

However, it's been 30 years since I witnessed an annular eclipse. Yes, the sun was completely covered up and I would like to see that again one day. During the ... |
