Hi Ricarda, I've also had the problem of making friends online and knowing that it would lead up to nothing. It was the nostalgia of playing with my clan members that would keep bringing me back in. Also letting go of all the progress I had made and as for making friends in person I sought out a gaming club because I knew that would be the easiest place to make some friends. If you have not done this already I suggest you tell your friends about what you are trying to do. Build up a support system around you with people you can count on. As for the online friends I make on here they are another place that I can go to for help. However, my primary support system are my family and friends.
