    Ive got family and 'friends', but I still feel alone. I don't know where and how to meet new people. Especially LGBT friends. They all end up having a thing for me and don't want to just be friends. Its the worst feeling.

    I totally have the same issue from time to time. Sometimes I just feel so lonely, although I have friends and family, and I have found it super difficult to make friends in the lgbt community that identify the same as me. It's true for me too that every girl I meet, friend, or try to friend that identify as lesbian always try to take things further or are seeking more than a friendship & in turn it always gets ruined because that's not what I'm looking for.

    I think the lack of lgbt friends is the reason I get the lonely feeling sometimes. For me it's like I feel alone as in there's just some things I can't talk to my family and friends about, and then there's some things I can't talk to my girlfriend about, so I end up lonely because there's no one to talk to. And well it would just be nice to have someone with similar experiences and interests to talk to. If that makes sense. It's really hard sometimes, but usually my loneliness passes, hopefully yours will too!

    I hope I find someone soon. I'm kind of happy to not be the only one with this problem though. Even if I go into GSA meetings or LGBT events I always face it. I just got out of a relationship yesterday because of the issue on not being able to make LGBT friends. Everything is really sucky right now.
