I lead a very alone path..
I lead a very alone path..
Juliet said:Not alone exactly, more left out. When everyone around me has a spouse/partner/significant other, and I have no one, I often wonder what it feels like to have someone want you.
Stonely said:I feel lonely whenever I'm surrounded by people but I'm by myself and feel out of place.
constant stranger said:Yeah, me too and I've become altogether more accustomed to loneliness than can possibly be healthy. I've got maybe the last 1/3rd of my life left to me.......what's going to happen, am I going to age all alone, die alone in my house, get found by the neighbors, my corpse decomposing in a chair with a book on my lap?
MadeofLove said:I feel left out wherever I go too. As if there is something really wrong with me which makes people don't like to communicate and spend time. To have a life partner to share whole my life with...it's just a far-fetched dream.
h3donist said:It breaks my heart to read these posts - it seems like there's lots of single people both men and women who would love to be with someone else.
I'm in a marriage and I still get as lonely as hell. I don't blame my wife at all; I'm really pleased she's finally made some friends and goes out with them, I just wish I could have the same.

Same ....
Especially at this time of the year, with a birthday coming up in a week. There's nobody to even go and have lunch/dinner with, or even just a drink and a chat.
shadetree said:I do too, i just drown mine out with noise and color mostly. I think its not about the amount of connections but the quality and how deep they are.
whoops said:me too. who can i run to?
Rahvin said:I actually feel much less lonely when i'm NOT on here, which is why i'm around less and less, and am more or less giving up on forums.
Still can't help but check here occasionally though, mostly out of habit.
h3donist said:I felt a lot lonelier before I found this place. It's helped me deal with my loneliness offline too, as I know I can always pop onto here whereas before I had no sanctuary

Rodent said:Sometimes I worry if I'm too busy looking at what sets me apart from other people that I completely lose sight of what could possibly connect me with them. In real life and on the internet.
On second thought, maybe I just got tired of trying over the years of disappointment and repeated confrontation with the demotivational reality.
Tinderleaf said:I too feel quite isolated and alone most of the time. However, worrying about it in self-pity isn't going to get me anywhere so what I do is to just try and live in the present, enjoy the small things in life like reading, exercising to working together with university colleagues to get through uni work. But most of all, I try to put myself out there and get pro-active. That way, I can take my mind off being alone and at the same time have a sense of purpose in life as well.
Tiina63 said:I feel isolated pretty much all the time. Sometimes I can briefly put it to the back of my mind if I am reading a good book or having a good conversation, but it is always there and comes back to bite when the book has been read or the conversation is over.
Juliet, I wonder too what it would be like to have someone want me, want to spend their life with me. I really don't want to go to the end of my life alone.

Ya, that's kind where I am too. But I'll never get used to being alone, though I certainly should be by now. I've always been one that hated being alone too. The worst thing is losing hope for anything better, anything more. It's hard to get that hope back, something has to happen, some positive, and ya can't always make what ya need happen yourself. I've found the ones in the past spewing tripe about what I should do (i.e. get out and meet people and about meds, mood, happiness etc) have no idea of what it's like to have severe depression, anxiety, long term loneliness, or even understand the pains of divorce.
Even on here the OP asks. Forums are not like talking to someone else with an immediate response back, ya may get a response sometime later or may not get a direct reponse referencing things you said at all. That's why I've found past forums, a lot like talking to yourself.
Is the chat room still in operation? When I went there I couldn't seem to get on there, though I signed up.
