Ahhhh I relate to this.
If it makes you fee any better, I also feel lonely in a crowd of people because I don't feel connected to them. I can also usually sense from a small crowd when I'm not really wanted and people are just tolerating me, so that's an unsettling feeling.

Never had a problem making friends until I turned 30. Then my social life came to a grinding halt.

Wow so it's not only me! Yes! Since passing 30 it is essentially impossible to make new friends. Other women want to flaunt their expertise or career achievements and rarely are capable of relating authentically to you. Men don't want to be your friend, they would much rather date you.

Very true

Although mine was a boys blue bike it looked identical to this (I think it also had a bar under the seat which is more typical of boys bikes

I’ll bet that most people here on WP qualify for our band, and least sometimes.
