Hi. I haven't posted here in a long time but now I need advice. Apparently being lucky has a price. Other people want to be lucky too. I own my own condo and only have to pay $290.00 association fee, cable, cell phone, electricity and groceries. No mortgage. My parents in order to protect me...

I have a friend, very nice guy, I've been enjoying his company. He sometimes uses the wrong English grammar. He says "we was" instead of "we were" or "you was" instead of "you were." English is not his second language. It's just how he talks. Should I bring it to his attention or just not say...

A lot of lonely people have finding a romantic love interest and sex partner on their minds all the time and suffer for not finding one. It's true that we are biologically social animals and need to interact with other people. But romantic relationships are not the only relationships that...

Why is it that women often tell other women "You don't need a man" and women say "I don't need a man" and we have cultural stuff to support this such as the Disney movie Frozen but you never hear a man tell another man "You don't need a woman" and you never hear a man say "I don't need a woman"...

Here is an article I found. I thought it might explain why some people feel such a strong need to be in a relationship and why you can't get through to them if you tell them "You don't need to be in a relationship to be happy." They might not feel so "desperate" if what is described in this...

I just got this message on OK Cupid. "Apart from the description on your profile, Are there any other prerequisites for me to apply and be considered as one of the potential candidates to be your partner?" It's charming and he looks cute but I'm 40 years old and he is 24. That's a whopping 16...

I've been dealing with these thoughts in my head which I realize are not exactly good for my self-esteem but they are thoughts suggesting that the reason I have to live with loneliness is because I'm being punished for doing something bad to someone else. That is breaking my last boyfriend's...

I'm on OK Cupid. I don't like it. I want to get off that site. I'll either do it myself or wait for the one who is going to take me off that site by removing me from the singles "market" whichever comes first. I get too many stupid messages from very young men who want to hook up with an older...

I've seen some articles on the internet that say loneliness is a choice. Is this true? Because when I come home from work in the evenings I don't really feel I have a choice not to feel lonely. I want to banish this feeling forever. It's painful. And I have an unhealthy relationship with my...

We all have our own made up user names and our own characters and I believe we do come across as very theatrical in our threads and it's an ongoing story. Only we're not actors, it's all based on our real lives. And we're all an audience and well as real performers and we all stay tuned to what...

Ok, this is a rant. I don't want to offend anyone because I know there are genuinely nice guys in the world. This is another reason why I have fears about on-line dating. I just got a text message from one of these dates who I went out with three times, didn't feel any attraction and cut it...

I thought this might be an interesting topic for us to pick our brains about. How can there be 7 billion people on Earth and there is loneliness? Is it because people are too shy to talk to people? Too addicted to technology? What do you think?

With all the posts that come up on here occasionally from people who don't like their single status or have fears about being single for the rest of their lives (And I'm guilty of these negative thoughts too but don't worry I'm working on my attitude adjustment) I thought this might inspire some...

This post is only for people seriously looking for love. If you're happily single, disregard my post. We live in a strange culture that seems to confuse the basic human need to love and be loved with being desperate. Talk to some random person about your single status, how you feel about it...

We live in a strange culture. One that associates loneliness with shame. People are ashamed to admit that they are lonely. Why? In fact I read in a book about loneliness that many people would rather admit to having a sexually transmitted disease than being lonely. That's insane! A zoologist...

Pay close attention to this one. It's a love story. It's about how we're so addicted to our phones, technology and social media that we're so disconnected from others and not paying attention to what is happening around us. In this video it shows a story of a man who let the love of his life...

I know nobody wants this, neither do I, but if it were to be true is there a way to accept it and be happy for the rest of your life? Imagine this: A crystal ball tells you that you will be single for the rest of your life. You can pretty much throw any fantasies of romantic love and/or...

Hi everybody. I haven't been feeling quite so lonely in my single person home lately because I've been preoccupying myself with a topic that for some unexplained reason absolutely fascinates me and I've learned a lot. I understand that one thing that can soothe and provide relief from loneliness...

cry almost every day?

I welcome advice and constructive criticism. I am feeling really guilty right now. Last Sunday I went on a date with someone I met on-line who is a genuinely good person. I'm talking about someone who is kind, compassionate, a gentleman and a humanitarian. Someone who works in hospitals in...
