Loneliness Support Group

Loneliness is an emotional state in which a person experiences a powerful feeling of emptiness and isolation. Loneliness is more than the feeling of wanting company or wanting to do something with another person. Loneliness is a feeling of being cut off, disconnected and alienated from other people. The lonely person may find it difficult or even impossible to have any...

Hypocrisy

I'm still totally without a partner. No hope for a pertner in sight. I may die this way. No one cares. Anyway, I go to AA and sometimes church. I tell people my problem. They tell me I have to "Git right with God." A lot of them tell me that sex is bad. But those same people are probably having the dirtiest kinkiest sex there is. LOL. Is anybody out there straight up? My life sucks eggs.

Reading this reminds me so much of past friends who told me countless times throughout my life to never get married, it's the worst thing ever, stay single, you're better off single, marriage is a huge regret... And then they all ran off and got married... That still burns me up to this day. If it's so bad than why are you doing it? It makes me feel like they were saying I wasn't good enough for it or worthy enough for it but they were. Or they just really hate themselves and want to torture themselves, I don't really know.

there’s a lot of two faced people in the world in general but I find it even worse in church . Sex is supposed to be this beautiful thing. I mean without marriage supposedly a sin but my philosophy is you wouldn’t buy a car without test driving it.


This off topic but years ago I knew someone who cleaned the church they went to and people would shove toilet/paper towels down the sink clog the toilets , bibles toss on floor . They would host parties like it was a dance hall and I always found it disgusting.

I had a very hard upbringing and learned to be very resourceful on my own. I became so good at taking care of myself that men found me too independent. I had years of bitterness, jealousy and anger about why I am still alone. It took a long time, but then it dawned on me that MARRIAGE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE, AND IT'S NOT WHAT IT'S CUT OUT TO BE. Unfortunately, it's not for me, I don't know if it's for you, but everyone is different and the reason people are alone is because it's just not for them, we have our own lives and other problems to deal with. Don't be hard on yourself. Once I accepted it, I felt better. It's not the end of the world to be single.

I respect what you're saying. Sometimes I work hard just to focus on my hobbies. That's okay. But then I go to meetings. All these people are either hooking up. Or almost everyone else is sharing about the great relationship they have. A lot of ladies give me dirty looks and avoid me like the plague. It makes me feel like The Elephant Man. It's social ostracism on steroids. But then, I never liked the so called Popular People in high school and college. They were all a bunch of phonies. Same in AA. But then we all have character defects. I'm 51 now. And with all the Ostracism I've experienced throughout my life, I can see that I'm turning into nothing but a wretched, miserable old prune. So much for life being good. LOL
