Hi all!
I figured I would intro myself, even though it seems our Central PA board isn't that active. I'm Meghan, married a little over two years now. I'm originally from FL, moved up here in 2008.
I feel a little pathetic because I have absolutely no friends here in PA. 
I work from home and don't have any kids yet, so that doesn't help!
I have two dogs, a pug and a shih tzu-lhasa apso mix. We just bought a house in Camp Hill in May.
Anyhoo, I just figured I would say hi!
Re: Hi all!
Hi Meghan!
Don't feel pathetic, I have a few friends and I still manage to be lonely. ;o) I'm the last of my friends to have kiddies, so it's hard to get together with them.
Welcome!!
Hi there!
We moved here in June and I've had a rocky work start, so we are very slow meeting people. I completely understand the lonely thing!
Thanks everyone! It's been tough--I moved from where I grew up, so when I moved here it was a bit of a shock! I met a few of my husband's friend's wives/girlfriends, but we tend to only hang out as couples--which I don't mind at all, but they are my husband's friends in a way, so I can't really vent about him to them, lol! (Besides the fact my husband's best friend tends to date girls that are 10 years younger than us--they're all about partying and I'm over that!)
Thanks again for the welcome!
Welcome!! I totally relate to this...when we hang out with DH's friends it's always as couples and he says well they're your friends too, but it is totally not the same
Hi & welcome!
I know what you mean, most of my friends have kids and we're not there yet. I have a very active, crazy dog. And I'm not originally from York (moved to the area about 5 yrs ago) and I haven't made a single friend in the area...now that's pathetic! lol
Thanks again for all the welcomes! You guys have definitely made me feel less pathetic, which I needed!
I moved to PA from Hawaii (about 15 years ago), and I am still sometimes in culture shock. LoL. I totally get where you're coming from though; all my friends have kids, all hubby's friends are single and par-tay-ing (and dating 18 year olds...eww).
Hmmm...maybe it's time for a Central PA Nest GTG? Anyone down?
Hello and welcome! I'm Lisa Beth, my H is Mike and we recently moved to the Lancaster area. I know what you mean about being pathetic without friends. Before moving here, I was unemployed and didn't know anyone in Berks (originally from NJ)until I went to a few GTGs. Thankfully now I have a job here, so it isn't as lonely. Hope things look up for you soon!
