How many people here feels lonely alot!

[Jayson]

I almost always feel it. Part of it is the depression but also the fact that I don't have many friends and no girlfriend. I spend alot time by myself and it gets to me. I end up sleeping alot and thinking of suicide. Granted my OCd is doing better but in away that is worst because I feel empty when I'm not fretting over my thoughts. The more relaxed I fell the more empty I feel inside and that can get distrubing.

One is the loneliest number that you'll ever know.
Two can be as bad as one, cause it's the loneliest number, since the number one.

Do you do drugs son? If not, may I suggest you take it up? You'll find endless hours of boredom can be instantly filled with well nothing, but you won't care.

 

[PlainSimpleJoel]

At times I can feel lonely, but it doesn't really bother me. I can spend lots of time by myself without communicating with people in the real world. It was worse when I didn't have the internet. At least now, I can be in contract with family and friends.

 

[Jayson]

I don't do drugs except for my ocd medicine. I take prozac and some other pill I keep forgetting the name of. I'm afraid of becoming a drug addict so I stay away from the illegal kinds.

I'm lonely all the time, but I've picked up a couple of hobbies to help distract me from it.

But seriously, stop thinking about suicide.

I am lonely when I'm bored. I'm also hungry and angry when I'm bored.

I generally hate being bored.

I think loneliness is a natural condition for me; it's part of my creative nature. I was an Arts & Sciences kid in a Church & Football family, so I was always either left to myself or actively mocked for my interests. My friends at school had minimal points of connection with me-- even friends that I had the most in common with only overlapped a small part of who I am. Girlfriends were the worst, since girls are pressured to keep away from what society considers "guy things." So my favorite activities, by nature and circumstance, were always conducted in solitude. At this point, I wonder if I would even still be me if I wasn't lonely.

^there's a difference between feeling alone and feeling lonely. One implies a yearning, the other does not.

 

[Jax]

Sometimes I guess, I have a small group of friends or people I consider friends and we see each other alot and all live in same town minutes apart so that is ok. I actually hate being around loads of people because I feel more alone there.

You should get a dog Jason. You're never lonely with a dog.

True. The yearning has lessened with age, so perhaps I'm not so lonely anymore.

 

[Deranged Nasat]

Yes, I feel lonely pretty much all the time.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

Isolated and in a solitary situation, yes, I've had this experience for over five years now.

Yet it has only really been in the last year or so that I have truly felt lonely - and had this yearning to not feel alone.

 

[Kibbin]

Ditto, I have very few friends and have next to no luck in the dating department but I do what you can, solo games that wouyldn't work with too many people around, read and know that "You don't have a best friend. You know why? You don't need one! You're Kibbin! Knowing other people just waters down the experience! Live the dream, buddy!"

So...what you're suggesting is... 3 way?

 

[SmoothieX]

You should get a dog Jason. You're never lonely with a dog.

Agreed. This guy is (now) 100 lbs of best friend when my wife works late or is out of town.

 

[iguana_tonante]

Not really. I should probably feel a bit lonely when I go home after work, but usually I'm just too damn tired to feel anything. Beside that, I get more than enough company during the weekend: in fact, I have to cut down on the socials sometimes because I'm feeling overcrowded.
