Hello, I ran across this place a week or so ago, but I just lurked and posted elsewhere. I just realized that I never said hi.
I'm happily married, but the social life has suffered greatly as other people went off and started families, became entangled in their careers and prestige or other such things that happen to people with means. I keep busy, but watching many friendships slip away sometimes takes its toll. I often wonder if my not following "the typical path" of most people has alienated many people I once knew. I don't have kids, don't live in a big fancy house by choice, buy all used clothing, read way too much and really don't play the class pecking order game at all. So perhaps it's my problem? Who knows.
The forum's title made it seem like a promising place to at least poke around in.
In any case, hello!
