Anyone interested in being friends?
I'm new to this app, but so far most people seem to be very supportive. Loneliness is a big reason why I'm checking this out. I'd really love to develop some meaningful friendships in my life, so I'm posting this in the hope that others feel the same way! I crave that connection, but I find most people to be shallow. I want to be able to talk about real life and real issues without judgement, just supportive conversation. So, if this sounds like something that interests you, let me know! Friendships can develop between people of all ages and walks in life, but having some common ground can help, so here are a few things about me. I'm 37, a single mom of two teenage girls, part time student, and I struggle to overcome an ultra conservative upbringing (think more cult-like) and an emotionally abusive marriage that thank goodness, I'm no longer in!

Hey! :) I am 21 and I am a full time college student. I have no kids myself and have never been married. I would love to be your friend. You can call me Halli. It's not my real name but I feel on the internet, it's best to choose a name for yourself :D At least thats how i feel :)
@HalliwellSister
Hi Halli! Nice to meet you :) What are you studying and how long do you have to go?
@pinkMelon656
I am studying Criminal Justice, psychology, and Creative writing. I am supposed to graduate in 2018!
@HalliwellSister
You're ahead of me :) I will probably still be plugging away when my kids are in college! What made you decide to go into criminal justice? Also, what kind of job are you hoping to get when you're done?
@pinkMelon656
How much more do you got until you're done? Forgive me if stated, but what are you studying?
haha I dont know, I just find the subject matter interesting and I like the idea of doing good. :) I am thinking lawyer or a counselor for families of murder victims
@HalliwellSister
I'm studying marketing, which is th field I work in now. I haven't calculated it all out because it just seems so far away because I'm only taking 2 classes (usually for a total of 6 credits) per semester. At the rate I'm going, maybe 4 or 5 more years! 😁
Sounds like either path you choose will be difficult. Hopefully rewarding, but tough! Good for you though!
So aside from school, what else can you tell me about yourself?
@pinkMelon656 ..... @kindDay4067 Are you studying marketing too? Sorry, Kind, I most always forget what it is you're really studying :( sorry. I thought you might like to "meet" .... Melon meet Kind, Kind meet Melon.
btw, Hi Melon, I'm Platy. 
@cyanPlatypus6370

Nice to meet you Melon!!
@kindDay4067
Hi Kind, hi Platy! :) Nice to meet you both!
Kind-I just finished a little rant about my Econ class. I don't think I could study finances 😁 I might rather step on Legos every day!
Hope you both are having a good week so far! 😀
@pinkMelon656
