I have no one to play tennis with

and I sure wish I did.

I'd probably better invest in a kayak.... something physical I enjoy doing and can do all by myself (um.... don't get crazy replying to that phrase....)

No sex partners, of course, but decent enough for tennis.

My friends are either much better or much worse than me.

I used to play in a tennis group, and if they weren't so desperate for players, they would have dumped me. It used to be really funny to listen to them try to hide that they were bargaining over who had to play with me -- they were so polite they didn't want to hurt my feelings. So they just sort of rotated like it was Canadian doubles, and whoever had me was the person playing alone! (I've got a killer net shot and an okay serve, but I run like an elephant, and anyone who can place a shot can put it out of my reach)

My other friends who "play" can't do anything - can't even get a serve in.

I second the suggestion of a wall....

(plus kayaking is way more fun with a friend to chat with as you drift down the water)

and have someone hit it back

I'm on leave from work and promised myself I'd do something physical every day, but I'm getting a little sick of jogging

Our public courts suck, but one of the local colleges have courts that are rarely used after 5 pm during the summer. Free is a great price. Let me know if you want to drive to Philly

But I'm probably way worse than you.....like I said: I run like an elephant

and seriously, I'm not that good at it... I just like it.
