Expat,
Glad you at least got in a little laugh time. Chatty has a good
idea, if you can get away it might help. My current husband
does not socialize, either. He's a loner. Sometimes I think he
must've been badly hurt along the road of life and that's why he is afraid of closeness. Don't know. But his whole family is that
way. I have seen lots of men who are loners, however. Good luck there girl; we'll be thinkin' about you!
