Hi there! My name is Dez. I like your username. There's a thing going on between me and my other friend on this site where we call each other mermaids.

Maybe you can join in on that. You need a "maid" name. But, either way, there are some awesome people on this site that you can certainly meet and make friends with. You can check out the Chat Room, for instance, and talk to other people. You can also post around on the support forums. Here are some helpful links that can guide you around:
Arrivals & Departures (introduce yourself)
How to Use the Forums
Obtaining Advice & Support
I hope that you find everything okay! Those links will cover the basics, but if you have any other questions you are more than welcome to ask.
See you later!
