After moving back to my hometown ...I can empathize. After moving back to my hometown in 2004, I have just this passed year finally feel really connected to another woman. It takes me a long time to open up to people, and I get overwhelmed with too many friends. lol I love to just have one close, intimate friendship, and I need that. I really need to work on opening up to other women though, and allowing them into my life - especially with our new endeavor into the pastorate. Praying for you.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17435587559894367861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3662104878413895998.post-61406341131316024972010-01-15T15:42:46.418-06:002010-01-15T15:42:46.418-06:00I know exactly how you feel.

The last placed I lived in before we moved here I had only 1 good girlfriend but even so I didn't get to be as close to her as I would have liked because she was at an entirely different place with raising her family.<br /><br />Then we moved here and God just really challenged my heart to open myself up and to let people in. and as you said "Trying" is always a great place to start. <br /><br />I will definately be praying that God will bring you some special girlfriends close by to be a part of your life, to encourage you, to be encouraged by you, to love you, and be loved by you.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08795538413354707685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3662104878413895998.post-52655729182653451972010-01-15T12:09:15.752-06:002010-01-15T12:09:15.752-06:00I had the best girlfriends in college and have str...I had the best girlfriends in college and have struggled ever since because I feel like I haven't been able to "replicate" that with any of the girls who live close to me. I have to remind myself that those things take time -- and maybe my college friends really are "once in a lifetime" kind of friendships, I don't know. <br /><br />It's always a comfort to realize that even if every earthly friend would forsake me, Jesus is always faithful.<br /><br />And speaking of developing relationships...we need to get together :) Would you want to come over and "play" with us in February? Wednesdays are good days for us.
