I already have my own family but I want a best friend

I want a relationship where I can call someone my best friend. I’m really close with my daughter and my mom but I know I can’t be best friends with my daughter and we’re not on that vibe with my mom. It’s not the same with my other family members. <br><br>I don’t know if it’s just an expectation, the lack of fulfillment, regret about relationships or what, but I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. I’m not sure if anyone else has felt this way, but I’ve been having a strong craving for a best friend for a while now.<br><br>I have a hard time making friends. I’m just a homebody who likes being alone and maybe that’s the problem. I’m usually with my kid or myself. I think about joining a club but I don’t know about that either. <br><br>Sometimes I feel like I’m paying the price for not deciding to date more in my younger years. I feel like it works out that way in the end, the popular girls already know a lot of people and have a lot of connections in their lives.
