２つの２つのto

Question

テキストに次の文がありました。Paul had nobody to talk to, as his parents told him not to associate with local children.      to talk to の文法的な意味がわかりません。

前者は不定詞のto。

Paul had homework to do. <- この文章のtoと同じ役目。

後者はtalkが自動詞の為に使われている。

Paul talked to me.  <- この文章のtoと同じ役目。

この場合には、toは若干一方的な意味合いあるのでwithの方がいいかもしれない。

Paul had nobody to talk with, as his parents told him not to associate with local children.
