Oh dear, I know just how you feel. I've had the same experience of moving to a new place and having difficulty 'connecting.' Check to see if there is a welcome wagon organization in your area, if so there may be a a "newcomer's club' that you could go to. Also, MOPS as somebody else mentioned, I also made some friends by volunteering in my kids school one day a week. But the best and closest of my friends all are from church. I hope you find somebody soon, but you can always come to this board for lots of support and encouragement!
