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.

Where's my Valentine???

To all of us out here who are far far away from where we so want to be on this romantic celebrated day of "love"  To me, it does feel more like a "sentence" while others are deleriously happy with the one they love, I am still here....doing way too much for someone who does not appreciate it. 


From coming on here often and chatting and sharing with so many , I realize there are so many of us who are dreading this holiday for somany reasons.....   in a loveless mariage......separated from the one they truly want to be with.....   being afraid to reach out because of being hurt too many times..... 


I just thought perhaps we could commiserate together.  Happy February 14th to us all.


Would love to hear how others will be making it through the day.....


(It will be my first day off after a 7 day stretch, and I will be collecting last tidbit s of info for attorney to begin divorce proceedings)

The same way I have for the past several years.... Eating chocolate that I bought for 50% off and listening to cynical music. Unfortunately, I had a D&C on Saturday, so masturbation isn't a desire.

I must admit I too have been dreading <3's Day, more so this year than the last. Don't know why. Luckily it's largely a commercial holiday and I'm grateful (so's my wallet) that I don't have to spend anything on furry toys or chocs or flowers : ) he he : ) I think most guys could quite happily give that a miss - we're such cheapskates and so unromantic!


The day will pass...it will pass...and who knows, maybe something romantic and exciting will happen? It's a tough day for the unattached (and others)...there's no getting around it.

I think a holiday should be a positive thing for everyone and since this one is bad for a lot of people on mental health grounds, it should be banned. Who's with me? Strike this holiday from the calendar!

Do something nice for yourself! Hugs! Brooke
