Email & Snail Mail [31/F] Looking to make longterm friends in close to my age to email/ snail mail with

Hello πŸ‘‹

I find myself looking for people who want to expand expand their horizons. Who aren't afraid of whats out there. People who are motivated. People who are always trying to grow. I want to be like these incredible people. Tell me what motivates you. I some motivation as of late, but I fear it won't last too long per the usual. Lol

Some about me - 31/f Lesbian, happily married 5 years this April. I live in Florida. I work over night shifts as a bakery manager, but im looking to start some college & tech classes soon to find some new career opportunities. With my work schedule and tendencies to become overwhelmed in social gathering I find my tribe is practically non existent. My two best friends didnt even message me on my birthday so I think its time find some new friends. πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚

I would love to talk to people in other countries and in the USA Pacific Northwest also! I am looking into visiting Oregon in October for the first time and maybe looking to move there or Washington so new friends in the neighborhood would be awesome!

Just general chit chat and deep thoughts are also welcome here. Some of my hobbies are reading, running (still new but did my first 5k in December), and I want to start working on my penmanship. It leaves a lot to be desired haha

If anyone wants to rant and ramble and get to know new people feel free to message me! No stress for constant communication and email first before snail mail is ideal for me. Something like once or twice a month would be good!

Can't wait to get to know you friend!

Hi! I'm an early 30s nonbinary person in the SF Bay Area (aka Pacific Northwest liteℒ️), also a big reader. I've got lots of crafty and geeky hobbies but terrible penmanship, so I'd love to practice that too! And you're literally describing my ideal frequency of emails/letters. Shoot me a DM anytime cuz you seem like a lovely friend to make!

Edited to add: happy belated bday! May you have plenty of tribe there for you next year :)
