writes: Okay, well its not really a huge deal, but my lack of social life pesters me. i am 27, female, i work for meager wages as a cashier, and i can't afford to really go out. i recently lost a lot of friends because they felt i couldn't keep up with their lifetsyles. most of them live at home and are supported by their families. they can afford to wear certain names and go out on a whim. it sucks, i work, i meet people, but its always guys wanting to date. i dont want to date, im just looking for friends. i dont have much time in my schedule to explore options. i deleted my facebook due to no comments back after6 months. i live with my mom too, we struggle to make ends meet. we support my younger sister going through college. i feel like i'm no longer human, my life revolves around work, cleaning, cooking, laundry, and bills. i dont know what im asking, i guess im venting or scared i dont exist.

reader, anonymous, writes (6 January 2011): I can relate. It's a very tough time right now and when I need to make a choice, it's sleep and social time with friends that suffer. In order to get more free time and a life, I sat down and tried to make things more efficient by listing all the required things I had to do (work, clean, cook, laundry, bills).
When I had a meal plan (exactly what we were going to eat that week and when, I was able to go shopping just once a week, cook and refrigerate food just once a week and do my laundry all on the same day. Saturday is my day off. I get all these chores done by mid afternoon, I nap because I'm exhausted and then I go out or stay in with friends. It doesn't have to be expensive of fancy I just need at least one person's company with whom I can chat about anything but how stressful my life is.
