It seems to me that if you quit going to Deaf events you'll be closing the door on some social opportunities.I can have as many people in my corner as I can get, but it means nothing. People would hang out with me only if I went to Deaf events. Therefore, I don't feel like going to Deaf events anymore. Why should I go if people won't hang with me outside Deaf events? I'm afraid of running out of friends with whom I can confide in.
Have you tried going to other events on your own just to have fun ? Flea markets are fun to go to , you never know what you'll . What kind of places do want people toI can have as many people in my corner as I can get, but it means nothing. People would hang out with me only if I went to Deaf events.

He might not be able to afford to move to a new city. He's said that he has gone to Deaf events and I'm sure he has also gone to other events as well from what I remember of his posts.
Moving doesn't always solve problems. Didn't matter where I moved, I still had trouble making friends or meeting people offline anyway.
Derek- I really think you should at least try to find or talk to a therapist or something. There's even a Deaf Counseling practice that offer online sessions. Worth a think.
I am not sure who this is for , but do you mean on line flea markets ?Can you find the online one?

I am thinking about what to do for spring. This Tuesday will be the first day of warm weather. 63 degrees. Maybe I will go hiking 3 or 4 times a week.
The weather is not bad today so my friend and I went hiking near the waterfall. It looked beautiful with snow. It was scary walking down the cliff to get to the waterfall. There are many different waterfalls in my area.Hiking is so much fun!
Just by your description of the hiking area looks like a nice place to hike. Waterfalls are one of my favorites to see. Glad you and your friend made it safe back.The weather is not bad today so my friend and I went hiking near the waterfall. It looked beautiful with snow.
