I guess this is my introduction.
Hello everyone, I am 25 years old and perpetually lonely.
I do not have any friends. I have not had any friends since high school-which I would later determine were not friends at all. It seemed these people were only friends those five days a week when it was convenient. After reaching out numerous times after graduating, I gave up at trying to stay in contact.
I've had a few jobs since graduating and tried to create friendships with coworkers but apparently i just do not connect with others. I've watched coworkers become friends and always wondered what is wrong with me that I can't establish these friendships or why they do not want me to be a part.
I've been single for two years. After the breakup I just did not have the emotional motivation to put myself back out there. I fear I will never connect with anyone or that the moment I tell them I have no friends they will no longer be interested.
I live alone. Just me and my dog-which I love dearly. He loves me unconditionally and helps me tremendously just by being there. I spend my days immersing myself in books. They give me a temporary esape but when I close the pages im met with the harsh reality of what my life actually is.
To sum things up--I just do not feel that I belong. Everywhere I go or everything I see on social media is groups of friends, couples, siblings--all having a good time together and I just don't understand why that never works for me.
I apologize if this comes off as a pity party--it just feels nice to vent a little. I hope everyone is well. Nice to meet you all.
