I am having an issue with being alone I've recently went through a breakup, and I am have had a hard time adjusting to being alone. It is causing me to feel like giving up entirely. I'm not sure where to meet people and I have a very hard time approaching new people at all. I need to find some friends but I do not know where to turn. I was hoping that I can get some help here on this matter on this website.

Thank you all for your kind words of encouragement. I would really like to I'm those that offered but nobody seems to be online when I have time to talk I'll keep trying. Yesterday was an ok day until the late evening which was very hard on me I tried to go out but found only very young collage kids out and about. I'm still not sure where to find people, but at this point I'm still willing to keep looking.

Hi & welcome!

I understand how you are feeling, I have been where you are, not to long ago. This site has helped me so much. Everyone that I have been in contact with are so wonderful. There is much caring here. People that have been in the same or similar situations. There's nothing like finding like minded friends.
One day at a time. And Big Hugs,
Marcia

Thanks again for all the comments. I finally got to talk to some folks today, and that was very nice. I had a rough day today had to deal with the ex and she was very mean, but talking on here did help. I got me a new bed today and that brightened my day.(she took the old one and i had to use a kids bed)

You don't want the bed. Try and get rid of everything that reminds you or the past.

Glad to hear you are on the mend. Things will get better.
Don't let her manipulate you. With time you will be just fine.

I didnt get her bed (she let the cat pee on it so I don't want it) I mention I got to get a new bed. I really like it so far. I feel better today thank you all for the chatting it keeps from feeling alone.
