The problem seems to be your inability of getting out of one specific way of thinking. That is: if I want to be happy, I have to change and adapt. In my opinion this is holding you back. Others have correctly pointed out that you're acting too much and you must find yourself. If you allow me...

Hehe, true. Appearances often deceive. I've taken notice that the fear of loneliness is much more rampant than loneliness itself. At least we've got the guts to face it, not like some other folk.

Oh my, so much similarities. Only change your physical conditions to my rather psychological one (stutter) and there you have it. Driven to social seclusion at one point after which the contradiction arises: desperate need for contact and yet the desire to get as far away from it as possible...

Well then, there is a problem :D. When I usually do it I am left even more confused, as I end up contradicting every thought with another thought and so on. Headache is not very rare after these things, too :D

One can lead quite an entertaining discussion with oneself :D I can testify for that.

Heh, sorry if I misunderstood some of your claims. The fault lies with me as well, as your descriptions are not lacking in accuracy at all. And yes, I think we have expressed our opinions well enough. Thanks for the good topic :) When it comes to sports, you really don't want to talk about it...

****, I now realize why I'm so lonely. You both here seem to be chatting quite relaxed and I'm not quite used to that sort of chatting. When I chat, I chat about certain things. Not simply for the fun of it. I REALLY need to develop my social skills, even on the internet :D I suck at chatting :D

Nobody is crazy here, just opinionated :D Interesting point of view. However all I can think while I read this, if you pardon my lack of tact, are rationalizations. I really don't know you or your situation in life but what I see is someone who wishes to deny all responsibility that he has...

Hey Soup, I hope you won't mind if I share some more thoughts on our freedom. And I'm sorry that I can't express myself well in a short post. :) You said we don't have the freedom to shape ourselves, and you appealed to the influence which is brought on us by our environment, society, genetics...

Woah, that was an intense post. Frustration, hopelessness, cynicism of epic proportions. It reminds me of Albert Camus' description of the Absurd. The human search for meaning where there is none, the contradiction between what one desires and what one gets. He offers to not delude ourselves...

That's a very interesting look at cats, Soup. My 10 year old cat is truly a representation of what you have said. It gets what it wants by any means necessary. Even if that means screaming at the top of it's lungs in the middle of the night, waking me up and then casually striding by after I...

Hey there, cms0622. I hope somewhere in my nonsensical post you will find something worth reading and maybe even remembering. Wanting to be happy and to have relationships is good in itself. It shows that you still haven't resigned to the idea that you might not find happiness. As long as you...

The thing is, 364ll, is that people often get that unspoken message that some people are just not into parties and they leave it at that. In my case it was good, because, well, I just plain don't like parties. But if you come off as the type who doesn't party, you should try and express your...

Yep... Thoughts like these often come into my mind. And I want to believe them so much. I'm always trying to see the good side of being alone, and it really exists, at least for me. But there comes a time when it's not enough, and I feel that something is missing. I see several ways this can...

Hey, Darkness. You expressed all the loneliness, unfairness and bullshit that comes with life extremely well. And that's probably what life is: unfair and full of bullshit. I often notice that people don't have what they mostly want, yet they possess something which is not so important to them...

It is often like this for me as well. Those feelings that contradict each other are hard to overcome. All you could do is try to break this vicious cycle, but it's really not an easy thing to do, especially not on your own. That shell which you built has a purpose of keeping you safe, right? But...

Yes, it's not easy. However, I do hope that you will get the chance to express that love which has built up in you.

Well, if you have lovesickness I don't think it's 'curable'. You probably have to actually get that feeling which you crave - love, or just not want it anymore. Both of those ways are really not comforting... It is similar to me - I know I cannot fulfill my need for intimacy, but I try to just...

Shostakovich - Jazz Suite No. 2: VI. Waltz 2 [video=youtube] Rachmaninoff - Piano Concerto No.2. (First part of the first movement here, although I like all of it) [video=youtube] Haydn - Symphony No. 22 - II movement. [video=youtube] Brahms - Tragic Overture. [video=youtube] And many...

Yep, that is me most of the time. But I've come to realize that this whole 'liking to be alone' for me has become just a mantra which I keep telling myself in my mind, in order to make up for the fact that I have no one really close in my life. It's always easier to not have something which you...
