Senior Citizen,

Altho your message was meant for Gracie perhaps your mistake was meant to be! Im sure you will get some wonderful input into your concerns.

I have been a New Englander for 36 years and was quite reserved as you described, almost to the point of being considered unfriendly by some. The Villages has drawn me out of my 36 year shell and now I am knocking on doors and saying "lets get together and have some fun" I NEVER THOUGHT THIS COULD HAPPEN TO ME !!! It is a subtle thing that just happens because of the warmth and friendliness of everyone around you. However if you want to be left alone, people do understand it and will do just that after a couple of good hard tries to get you involved in things. TV will allow you to be whoever you want to be, and that is why this is such a wonderful place to live. The choice is yours! Good luck, whatever you decide.
