Yeah, only one of my friends has ever shared a lot my interests, but she's kind of drifted out of my life now. My other friends have always been much harder to connect with because we are so different. Of course, now it doesn't matter because they've drifted away as well.
I would love to find a friend who I could connect with in interests and other things. But considering I haven't made a single new friendship since I left high school two years ago, I know I have a long way to go.
