feeling extra lonely tonight. I think all I need in this life is just one person to love and love me back. that's all I need, but it's like hell trying to find it. I'm too afraid of rejection, so I don't even try. It hurts to know you're not anyone's type. I'm such a loser. What happens to people like me in the end?
Honestly i feel you completly. Like for example, all my life all i wanted was love. And i too am afraid of rejection so much i avoid girls completely. Now it jus seems like i'll never find it, kinda gave up and i learned to never get my hopes up. I couldnt take another heart break, if i gotta die alone than its jus my fate.
Hey OP I send you a pm. But yeah I'm in the same shoe as you TheCapo, I can't take rejection well, in fact I rather be alone than rejected. I'm too sensitive, well unless a girl ask me out first
Oh and Grundel70 I don't think everyone is the same, and I know there are people who are in their 40's and 50's who have never had a girlfriend/boyfriend or wife/husband.
So let me ask you people this. Do you want to be lonely until your 40's and 50's or do you want to know companionship?
I am not trying to be difficult, or try to lessen anyone's pain. I totally understand pain, understand fear. I am going through that right now. there is something that is causing me a great deal of pain, confusion, and sadness that I KNOW what to do to fix it...I am just afraid to. I am afraid of how much it will hurt.
But i must face that fear. If i don't, then I will never be able to move on.
I also know rejection all too well. I get rejected ALOT. It hurts so bad, I know this.
However, I have to make that choice. Just like all of you. I can't say that you need to face your fears. I know that if you do, you will be better for them. but I can't make anyone do so. I can only try and offer you all some advice from my own personal experience.
Here are some things to think about.
1. If you talk to a girl and she doesn't want anything to do with you I promise you that you are NOT the first guy in the world to have that happen to them. It happens.
2. Fear cannot hurt you. It can only affect your actions.
3. Courage cannot exist if you are not afraid. Anyone can do something they like to do, or are not afraid of. Those that do things inspite of their fear...those are the ones that grow.
I know the bitter sting of loneliness. I know what it is to cry myself to sleep. I know what it is to feel hopeless. All I am trying to do is help you guys out!
It just comes down to choice. What do you want? Once you decide what it is that you want, are you willing to do what it takes to get it?
DOn't mean to sound preachy. I love you guys! I will always do what I can to cheer someone up and offer help. There is far too much hatred in this world. I would rather love someone than hate them, no matter what emotion was returned back to me.
