Welcome to WDC from "Newbie Welcome Wagon" ! Hello there, Kevin Green! This is a really sincere, honest, and open autobiography (one of the best I've seen!), and I commend you on writing it! Not a lot of people would open themselves up so much like this, and that's what I like about it. Not to mention that I can relate to it in some ways! I can't say I was ever bullied or had some of the 'problems' you had, but I live a life that's similar to yours now. I don't drive anymore, and my romantic life is kaput at the moment. I'm currently living in Texas, 1,500 miles away from my daughters and grandchildren and the few friends I have back there, but here I have no friends! I spend all day here at the library with my virtual friends on WdC, and believe it or not, I'm closer to them than some of my actual friends back in California ! But enough about me, dangit! This is about you! First off, please don't give up on finding a romantic relationship! I haven't, even though I'm not really trying much lately. Will I ever have one? Don't know. Truth be told, I get along fine with myself-it's the rest of the world I have problems with! But if it happens, so be it. Here's something else: You're only 3 months and 9 days older than I am! I might not have gone what you've gone through, but age-wise, we're pretty much the same when it comes to wisdom. My point being is don't let life get you down! At the very least you're being self-supporting, which is something I'm not even doing right now. I haven't had a job in a long time, but I'm still smiling, even though I wake up some days wondering why! It's never too late to change your life around (we're both going to turn 55 in a few months! ), but I have plans for the future. Whether they come to fruition or not remains to be seen, but I'm going to sit on my a** and waste what little of my life away! One last thing: you're a very good writer! I've done more than 12,700 review on here, and rarely do I come across a piece that doesn't have any spelling and/or grammatical errors! And you don't beat around the bush; you say exactly what's on your mind, and I envy you for that! That and your honesty! Thanks for sharing this, Kevin! I truly mean that! And I'm glad you joined WdC! I'm not a big poetry fan, but I'll check out "About Me" as I have a chance! Kee ponw ritin gon (that's my way of saying 'keep on writing on'), and welcome to WdC! If you like to write, then you're going to love it here! PS-You now have your 1st fan! PSS-And since you’re new here, perhaps you’d like to check out "Noticing Newbies" and introduce yourself to the rest of the community if you haven’t already.
