I went home but old friends no longer seem to want anything to do with me. I sent them a message through myspace and they said they'd give me a call but they never did. I must've done something wrong along the way. Also it's summer right now, not goin to school till this fall and it's hard to find friends. Can you please share your experience when you got out the military?
 
yer old bros have gone on to do other stuff,you do likewise,,but a couple among them would probably like to hang with you,,,,,,,dont know which
 
First let me say Thank You ....

I am sure that other fine men or women who have walked in your shoes will post some thoughts and ideas. Take you time and find your true friends ...
 
You've been away from your "friends" for 4 years. A lot of times it's hard to reconnect. It's not like they've been hanging out with you on a regular basis. They've changed. You've changed.

My advice, get a job.... even if it's just a part time job for the summer. Start meeting people again. If you're religious affiliate with a church and get involved there. Find a summer softball league. Volunteer at a hospital, it's a great way to meet single women, etc...

You can't just expect to pick up your life from where you left off.

********One last thing... avoid the bar and club scene for now. Just take my word for it on this.
 
I'm not in the military yet, but thanks for serving. I would say maybe go to a local VFW or American Legion post. You will have some things in common with them and you can make friends there. Your old friends are losers, leave them. They will never have a greater sense of pride behind their name as much as you do. Find a gym, go there and you might find yourself a lover. Join a club, that's all I can think of.
