Yes ma'am. I've been there on those days where it just you and the netflix. It happens and it's ok. Yeah I miss the companionship. I miss yelling someone how my day went when I get home. All I can say is that my goal now is to try and be a social as I possibly can. I don't have family close, so building a network of friends is my goal. It's definitely a struggle these days though. Anyway, I feel ya. Hugs.

Yes having a lonely weekend. With stores closed down yesterday I went to the local coffee shop where there are usually a number of regular people who are friendly and shoot the breeze but nobody was there. I went to a park on the water and looked at the scenery and all the action. Went home to my lonely place. ((Hugs))

Something is wrong on here, not allowing me to post. I will make it short and sweet this time around. I have felt very lonely as of late. I did connect with a lady who left her card in a public place She does different types of errands for people when needed. I told her I was the Lone Ranger, and she said she would be my Tonto. Perhaps we will end us good friends, even though she's divorced and not widowed. I cleaned house today, as well as some packing. Murphy's Law has kicked in already, but I'm not a quitter. I keep YouTube on most all the time for the noise because I hate this aloneness. Tomorrow I have zero plans.

Maybe getting out among people, even if I have nothing to do, is a good thing. I have not tried going out alone much when I have nothing to do. Maybe it would be good for my mood.

Most likely getting out will help the mood. Start slow if you're apprehensive. Take a walk after dinner. If you work, try joining or setting up a regular after work coworker thing. Try one thing you haven't done before. You'll never know what will stick and become something you like to do. I know, easier said than done. I have a lot those netflix afternoons too.

Yes you will miss that and the loneliness is like the Pink Elephant in the room and it is hard to disguise. but no one else sees or feels it but you.
I did lived in the darkness for a little bit and knew it wasn't a good place for the mind and I try and not look back and live in the past, but use it to look forward at the what the future can bring. I make good memories and it replaces the bad and with the good memories from the past the new ones the heart will slowly heal and you will feel the greater glow of happiness.
