When I was new to San Francisco eight years ago, I remember standing at a cafe window on Polk Street watching a group of women inside, huddled around a table laughing. Like the puppy dog at the pound, I looked through the glass, wishing someone would pick me to be theirs. I had a phone full of far-flung friends phone numbers, but I didn t yet kw anyone I could just sit and laugh with in a cafe. It hit me how very hard the friendship process is. I m an outgoing, socially comfortable woman with a long line of good friendships behind me. And yet I stood there feeling very lonely. And insecure. And exhausted at just the idea of how far I was from that reality. I knew I couldn t just walk in there and introduce myself to them. Hi! You look like fun women, can I join you? I would have been met with stares of pity. No one wants to seem desperate, even if we are. We don t have platonic pick-up lines memorized. Flirting for friends seems creepy. Asking for her phone number like we re going to call her up for a Saturday night date is just plain weird. All the batting of my eyelashes wasn t going to send the right signals. And so I turned away from the scene of laughter and walked away. No, unfortunately, friendships don t just happen. We Value Belonging Friendships may t happen automatically, but what we crave about them sure seems to! We all want to belong that need to be connected to others is an inherent desire. We live our entire lives trying to fit in, be kwn, attract acceptance, and experience intimacy. We desperately want to have others care about us. This book is about that hunger. And more pointedly, it is about listening to it and learning how to fulfill it.
