My mom and aunts and best friend all live far away, so we use internet and phone all the time. But almost every time I do things with the people in this town I'm left remembering horrible things they've said. They're just hard people. Or disappointing.
My own mother-in-law told me at dinner last month that I "should have died", meaning when I was close to death once and then in a long coma. Great example for Humanity 
And she only lives 3 miles away. The women I volunteer with (when I'm brave enough to go) are even worse than her but at least they don't take their crappiness out on me, not when I'm there anyway.
I almost made friends with a neighbor, she seemed pretty neat. Then she brought a bible over. I have a shelf full of holy books but since she knows I'm an atheist I guess she had to give it a try? Then she told me she would vote for Sarah Palin
Maybe if I got away from here I'd get a better impression? Maybe if I searched out the right crowd? But whatever, I have my cats and my squirrels.
