I'm really not sure what the point of this conversation is anymore. I know what the reality of my life is, and well intentioned or not, comments such as those in this thread do not apply to me and may not to others as well. So I would refrain from speaking them as if they were fundamental truths. But that's just me. I will freely admit this is a sore spot where I am concerned.
Are you lonely?

I am sorry you feel this way but l know what you are getting at on this subject
There is alot of people who are on there own.
Some poeple who have been married for years are left on there own after there husband or wife have dieed.
You dont see most of them getting married again
It is because they loved there husband or wife so much.
But you do see them still getting out going to the local clubs which a few go to the local RSL club so they can still meet poeple and socialize
Not just close them selves off from the world or give up on life.
Sometimes that is so easy to do if you give up on things

Not all people enjoy being around others. Several people have stated so in this thread. Some thrive in isolation, though I suspect there are very few people who truly want to be alone 100% of the time. Obviously everyone wants to strike a balance that is right for them.
I've found that I'm often at my loneliest when surrounded by large amounts of people, which sounds strange but is true.

Well with that attitude what do you expect?
Perhaps it's time to try a different approach to life. I did that and it worked out real well.
You need to adopt the John Locke attitude of "Don't tell me what I can't do!"
Very sorry to hear this, Goji. 
Your outlook had brightened so much over the last few years. You shouldn't let people knock you so hard. Build a shell over that sensitivity!

Yes l agree that you shouldnt let people get to you in life.
I know you prefer to be alone but have you ever thought about talking to someone on how you feel.
Some one who is specailized in this feild
It does help having someone listen if no one else can help you.
There is alot of nasty people who wreck our lifes but you have to show you can move on from where you are now.
Was there something in your past that happened to have you feel this way now as a adult.
I.

Please get professional help. That's not a shot, I really mean it. You're a cool guy when you're not wallowing in self-pity, but I fear that self-pity is what you broadcast to the world around you. It's not attractive.
The Colonel is wise. You should follow his directions.
I used to get lonely, even though I have a group of friends I hung - and hang - out with a lot. I don't anymore, now that I have a girlfriend, even though she's at the other end of the country for a month at the moment. I guess just knowing she's with me is enough for me. Yeah, I'm a hopeless romantic sometimes
