Oh yeah, that is why it is so hard a call to make. I guess for me, despite having a large biological family, I'd felt alone for a very long time. They were never the ones I wanted to call if I'd had a bad day. In fact, I often felt like a gazelle, and knew to never let them know my weaknesses, or they would exploit them and go in for the attack. Additionally, with their faulty coping methods, I knew I'd never find new and healthy relationships. I did spend a long time alone, just getting to know myself. Hey, I don't have a lot of close relationships now, but the friends I do have, are healthy and supportive when I do need them. Again, bring on the corndog, but my best friend is now myself - although I suspect the witch talks behind my back sometimes :)
