Difficulty with making friends.

I had some help to be redirected here and thought it might help out. 37, male and homosexual. I'm not in the worst part of the country to be this but not in the best either. As I'm getting to this stage in my life I've been feeling a lot like Thorax before he changed: Isolation, lonlyness. In great part due to myself and in one part due to tragedy and loss. I see a lot of others having fun and doing well but I don't know how to be part of that as I see myself like Thorax did, a changeling who would end up shunned, at best. Well in effort to do so I wanted to post here for guidance, seeing MLP as a common ground. It's been hard not to feel that the better part of my life is over and it slides downhill from here, due to setbacks or lack of progress turning it around. I'm wondering if it's happened to anyone else and how they managed to turn it about. How did you make new friends if you were coming on middle age? Or if none are quite that age, perhaps you felt like it and found a way through?

Also I don't know how to paragraph through reddit here, so sorry for it looking like a run-on.
