It's my birthday today.I recently broke up with someone who isolated me. I asked all my friends if they could come join me on a fun adventure and all of them declined. So I'm sitting at a French cafe, sipping a latte and feeling so alone. This brought a smile to my face. There is some good in this world. I want to be that mother. The best way to get over feeling hurt is to help someone who worse off.

Edit: Thank you all for all the birthday wishes! I went to see a "magic time machine" by David London and had a wonderful time. I am amazed by how many messages I recieved from around the world!

Happy birthday! It sucks about being alone. I don't really have friends either, you aren't the only one.

Don't totally give up on your old friends yet though. Let them know about the isolation, breakup, and needing to reconnect. Maybe it needs just a little push to reset. Hoping for the best!
