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...

Sometimes I feel like I'm supposed to be alone..
My boyfriend and I just broke up, my computer keeps messing up, plans keep getting cancled, my family isn't here for me, and today, both of my phones were fully charged, i havent really used either of them today, but I come home and they're both dead, and the charger is magically missing... I feel like I HAVE to do it on my own, like it's SUPPOSED to be that way...Maybe it's to teach me a lesson, or to show me how to be stronger... but it's not fair. I don't WANT to be all alone :(

first i am sorry about your boyfriend, know thats not easy where is your family at you are not alone and every experience is here to make us stronger whether we realize it at the time or not. we never do til years later when we reflect.

I agree with lessons comment. Maybe it's an experience to make you stronger! I'm EXTREMELY lonely! Divorced two years ago and realized I was emotionally codependent. Tried to learn to love me and feel like I pretended I did for some time but really it was that I was still in a relationship on and off for the past 18 months or so and that is the only thing that makes me feel good about me - a man. I probably need to be alone, to learn to love me but now I also wonder if I'm just alone because I'm becoming recluse! Can't seem to find the healthy balance.

I am feeling your pain. I don't know if this will help or not, but it could be worse! I stuttered so bad at your age I could barely speak. I had no friends all through school because I was just the stuttering idiot that everyone made fun of. No girl would touch me with a 10-foot pole. You are so much better positioned to attract friends than I was. It's an awkward age, I know, and I am not trying to minimize your feelings. Just be yourself, and I am positive things will turn around for you. :)

Maybe it's something, somewhere trying to tell you to just stop..and listen. I've learned in life that you cannot rely on others to fill a void. I think you need to give yourself attention & time to overcome this step. Stop reaching out and reach in. You are a beautiful young spirit & have a long life ahead of you.. slow down and enjoy, learn and live!

i agree with singledad you are, i was not the iconic magnet i am today (Just kidding) i was also akward nerdy and got laughed at and bullyed more than anything, and as sad as it sounds in a way i am kind of glad it all happened, it made me a stronger better person in a way.

I think you and I should be bowling partners. My girlfriend and I also just broke up, I'm in a new town, but knowing no one, and nowhere to go. And Fridays seem to be the worst for me.

I feel like I have always done it alone too.
I feel that no one was ever there for me.
I do have some support from the family yet not the kind that I would like to have.
I would really love to see my family believe in me and this is something that I work on every day slowly but surely they are starting to see me as something more and something that is worth something.
