Hi all,
I recently went on a vacation where I was alone part of the week. It sounds lonely but I actually (atypical for me) made a ton of new friends at the hotel. I was hyper social all week and it was great.
Until I came home and realized how lonely, colorless and boring my life really is. I work from home but I do get out of the house for exercise classes and the occasional happy hour, but mostly now I am incredibly lonely. At least before the vacation I didn't realize it.
I am so bad off now that I continue to message with a guy from the country I went to. He is 17 years younger than me and says he wants to be with me. It is obviously a lie and a scam but still I go along with it just to feel something even if it is all fake.
I'm not sure how to get out of this funk. At my age it is hard to find a relationship, and close friendships are hard because most women have families as a priority and/or they already have many close female friends.
I'm glad to be here though and know I am not the only one feeling alone and isolated.
