Think of someone who you think really cares about you and who you think loves you the most, unconditionally.

Visualize yourself sitting on a desk writing or typing your super hit best seller autobiography. Visualize in an associated state [A state with full feeling and emotion as if it were really happening in the now] with full awareness that you are writing.

Visualize the loving person observing you with full admiration and indulgence from a glass window as you type.

Quickly get into a dissociative state [ as if you are out of body and merely observing everything as if it were a movie]. Look through the eyes of this person. Notice what you look like to this person as you write your autobiography. What special qualities about yourself do you observe? How much are you being admired? What are the thoughts going through this person’s head about you? Describe all the special qualities you noticed in your autobiography.

Get back into the associated state, get back to the keyboard. Write down all the changes you notice about yourself as you experienced so much self appreciation. Feel all the special qualities that you just got awareness of. How is your self esteem now?
How good do you feel about yourself now?

You must hold these thoughts of self-appreciation constantly, the more you do, the more you will activate the Law of Attraction for getting good people who appreciate you similarly.

its really hard for me to relate to others my own age!

Forgive me if I go off on a tangent but just a thought on this comment.

The further you get away from the educational environment, the less chances there are of you running into a whole group of people the same age as you ~ many places of work contain people of a range of ages and backgrounds.

Maybe you get on better with people who are older, or who are younger. One of my closest friends says she has always got on well with younger people, and had friends with big age gaps. She actually has a child older than me ~ it doesn't matter, we get along, we chat, we go for walks, we go to cafes and pubs, we go shopping.

Now I am getting on a bit I also have friends who are nearly young enough to be my kids. I don't care ~ as long as we get along. I also have more than one close friend old enough to be my parent. I couldn't imagine having friends all the same age and from the same background as me. How boring!

Astrological clues on my chart - how about Uranus in Libra in the 11th house? I think that could express something of this, age gaps don't bother me. My husband also says I have a tendency to make friends with people who are in some ways on the margin of society. But I say I'm not going to reufse to speak to someone just because they don't fit in with the clipboard tick list of Middle England respectability.

There is a funny comment there, but I wont! Just this once!

MissNeptune, I got Libra on your 11th using a different house system. Talking of using, the 11th ruler, Venus, opposes Saturn, ruling the second. Capricorns can be users of people when not fully....developed lets say. I guess this can be an indication for your curent situation, if it applies at all.

You mention Aquaintances rather than friends....I guess this can be seen from 11th ruler Venus opposing Uranus (opposing Saturn too)
Venus is place in Gemini, so I guess its more of a sibling relationship. Venus is also in the 7th house which could potentially mean you meet your partner through friends.

Lots of maybes and nothing set in stone, but if you meet a partner, you might want to spend a fair amount of time with him, therefore reducing the need for too many friends.

Not really offering a solution, just commenting on your natal.

I really enjoy being independent, if that is the word. I know someday my time will come when lots of friends and maybe even a partner (God forbid) will come into my life and annoy the hell out of me. Until that day, I will enjoy what I am doing in preparation for the times when annoying people do enter.

The difference between us is that I chose this way, Im guessing you dont. Although many say you DO choose this current path.
Maybe its about learning to be happy in your own company.

I dont live your life and never will. I dont know what it is like for you, but I wish you all the best.

That's reserved for Iqhunk! But it was asked in all seriousness. Sometimes you have to do an exercise several times throughout the day, sometimes only once. So Kick It!

Its more complicated then putting it in a nutshell, that I'm just young. Everyone experiences life differently, I wasn't implying that I'm lonely only because I'm young. Its that I seek relationships that go beyond the superficial, which take time.

I'm very close to my younger sister and one of my cousins, they are some of best friends. My mother is also more of a friend to me. When I was talking about how I don't relate to people my own age, it has to do with the fact that my mother is only 18 years older than me, and a lot of her friends are actually my friends as well. So in that respect I suppose I have more friends than I'm suggesting. Sometimes its ridiculous how dramatic one can be, when they feel lonely, lol! Another problem I have is that I'm attracted to her friends husbands, I always am attracted to men that I know I will never get to date, etc... I wonder if that has to do with saturn opposing venus?
