I have, as of late, been plagued by what can only be described as a general feeling of discontentedness. I have a wonderful wife, a beautiful, home, a good job, and a new granddaughter on the way. God has been very generous to me. I spent the whole day today trying to get to the core of my problem. I, I discovered, am not lacking any physical thing that will bring happiness. I am lacking relationships. Hard to say but the truth nonetheless. I have never been good at developing friendships. Many men have piggybacked on their wife's social adeptness and have found relationships through her. Alas that is not to be in my case. My wife is an introvert. Socializing to her is akin to putting on a hard hat and going to work. At the end of a thirty minute visit she is visibly exhausted and spent.
So here I am craving Christian fellowship and after a life of not needing anyone but myself , I find myself ignorant on how to proceed. I can't be the only man in this situation can I ?
