Lonely

One of the reasons I was so determined to keep this guy in my life was loneliness. I do not have any friends but i do have family. I am trying to get out more so I can meet people but it has been a problem for me my whole life. I know it will get easier but i am just so lonely right now.

bein lonely is so hard. as a child i felt like that all the time cause my parents were just well i had ta be alone a lot. what helped me is ta find out things i like ta do & luv myself & learn ta be content. i know its hard & its worse sometimes than others. plug movies in. read. walk or whatever makes ya happy. i was gonna join the Y before i got ta work. it sounded like a great place ta meet people. not sure if ya have one or not

Loneliness is the worst feeling. ((hugs)).

However sometimes just keeping someone in your life so that you don't feel lonely can make you feel even more alone.

Hang in there x

I think a lot of us get the " lonely ".

I have a hard time connecting with people .
I am friendly, but have few real friends.

Everyone has great ideas here. Even the public library may offer you hope. They have many free classes and opportunities to mingle and meet others. :)

Big hug for you sf.... I have found a 'bad' relationship is a lot worse then no SO... It can suck the life out of you..
Friends are another thing.... They are one of the most precious things life has to offer..
It sounds like you are doing a lot to help yourself... You Go Girl!!
That special someone is out there I have no doubt and you'll know him because he'll treat you in a way that lets you know what a special and lovely person that you are....He'll enrich your life and that's what you deserve...x
