6. I feel you are lonely and lacking in human communication.

Because the environment around you is lacking in the stimuli you need to feel alive, you feel isolated and alone. The talk with your friend was uplifting because it was someone who is aware of the real you. That is all.
In every small town there are people like you. I speak from my own experience.
Keep trying and you will find these people where you are.
One place to start is by finding ways to give to this community. You might begin by volunteering at the local food bank or thrift store (all small towns have them) or the local veterinary clinic, helping to care for the animals, if you like animals. If you like old people, volunteer at the local nursing homes or retirement communities.
You will find people there, somewhere, without having to try hard.
People who love the same things you do and who are interested in music and art will flock together magically, when we allow it to happen.
I wish you peace. I have found this - have always lived in small towns (except for two brief stints in the "city,&quot and I have found it easy to connect with others who share my interests.
