Dear Relatives,
I wish that all of you would give me a chance at being your friend. I admit that I don't like that none of you ever invite me to events. I just want to be friends and get to know all of you. I don't want to hate any of you.
I completely agree with the bolded part. I have experience that quite a bit when I have told people about my loneliness. I have noticed that lonely people are often treated like they are really weird simply for having trouble making friends or even wanting friends.
The thing with my relatives is that most of them include each other in events like going to concerts, movies, or family dinners. They never include me.
I have been struggling with loneliness for most of my life. I'm really shy and have a hard time making friends. I will admit that I'm partially at fault for my own lonenliness, but to a certain extent I think many of my relatives are responsible as well. They leave me out of a lot of things and...
I agree with you, I doubt anything like this would happen in New York. I worked with a guy who grew up in New York and he has said the same thing. NY landlords will always want their money on time. Some landlords might be ok with not getting rent for a couple of months, but eventually they...
I have dealt with social interaction problems for my most of my life. I have a hard time making friends and connecting with people. I have anxiety problems and when I try to interact with people, I just end up acting awkward. Many people can't understand where I'm coming from. So this my letter...
There are things that I like about Facebook. I have a few close friends that live away from me and I like communicating with them on it. But I dread looking my news feeds most days because a lot of my FB friends who are people that I went to high school with or relatives are posting pics of them...
Very well said Sci-Fi. When I dealt with those people who said that stuff, I felt bad but deep down I knew that having an apartment and job don't combat loneliness. I work mostly from home though. I do go the company I'm employed by a few times a week for meetings with my boss.
The other...
I agree people who have an easy time making friends and being apart of groups can't imagine what it is like not to being asked to events or to struggle to make friends. On one of the forums, I posted on several of the women on the forum said that I shouldn't make a big deal over things like not...
I have dealt with loneliness a good portion of my life. I'm currently struggling a lot with loneliness because I have a hard time making friends and connecting with people. Some of my issues are partly rooted in the fact a lot of my relatives used to leave me out of different events and the few...
Hi everyone,
I'm 26 years old and I have felt lonely my whole life. I'm the youngest of four children. My three older siblings were a lot older than me. I grew up alone at home quite a bit. Most of the relatives on my mother's side were much older than her and most of my first cousins were 12...
