I think this is my main problem. I don’t think I really have a relationship where I feel safe to be my truest self.
I think the closest would be with Mom, but there are parts of my life I don’t share with her, mainly because she is my mom and it seems weird to share info about things like dating with her.
At work, I try to keep things professional and don’t share too much personal information with many people. The closest would be J and M. but M is hard because she is also my supervisor. I think once J is settled in from leave we can be more chatty,
I don’t have a close friend that I feel safe with, R has been distant since getting a man in her life and M doesn’t live close and is way too busy to chat.
The other J ladies in my life are great but feel a little motherlike so they make it hard to confide in.
I really want someone in a similar in age and life situation, single/child free.
