I seem to have a tiny advantage, in this area. I had pretty much shut people out of my life, before I had even met Wanda. I am very used to being alone and I am quite comfortable with it, on the whole. Before we met, I would get lonely, maybe once a month or 2, but normally, I was ok.
Now, I miss HER. I don't miss company or talking to "people."
Only HER... I have a few options for talking, though. Here, DS, facebook, and her family & her best friend. They have not abandoned me.
My family and friends haven't, either, but they are harder to talk to. Oddly enough, I am more comfortable talking to the few others that feel the horror as much as I do, if not worse (her parents).
