I am feeling lonely and I'm anxious to make friends
Hi Mark - nice to meet you and welcome to the community
I totally understand feeling anxious to make friends, it can be quite a daunting task but I think it's grand that you have started with this first step of saying hello to everyone here and stating that you would like to make friends!
I think you'll find some excellent conversation and emotional support within this community. I see you already have a Jess saying hi and offering support which is wonderful to see. If you need or advice just ask the members here
Good luck and best wishes,
SarahMod
