Does anybody feel like I do?

I feel sometimes, like I'm on "nobody's list".

That if so and so gets married ...they might invite a bunch of people, but "not me".

That if a new company moved in and people were asked "we're hiring do you know anyone who might need a job?" ...that names will be rattled off, but "not mine".

That if my town got involved in a natural disaster and rescue workers ask "how many people are there here?" ....people will think of that friend or that family, but not think "of me".

I just think sometimes that I'll simply be left in the rubble, forgotten, with nobody even THINKING of searching for me. Anybody feel like this? Sure makes me feel lonely at times.

    I'm sorry. sounds like your feeling down!! and feeling lonely. You know that some people can be in a room full of friends and feel like they are alone? Dont be down on yourself! Go out make some new friends! find some things to do in the community,volunteer and help others its a good feeling!! Just know that you are not alone and strangers are reaching out to you ,ok? Take care now and go and watch a funny movie!! go and laugh!! Smile!!

    Many people had very good answers, but I must say that I enjoyed your advice to serve others. It has been said that as we lose ourselves in the service of others, we discover our own lives and our own happiness. Thanks again for reminding me of this.

    Well for what s worth your somebody's child, and a child of God , so be encouraged. You know that you are so special to God that he has every single hair on or head counted,.You may not think your worthy of anyone's love ,but your worthy of "Gods love "because he loves you and he's very merciful and forgiving and wants you to have "joy" in or life. ..so I'll end on this last note before I end up writing a novel here. Draw closer to Your faith..pray with a sincere heart and be consistent ,you'll find the proof of Gods love being manifested in your life in heaps and throves! God bless!

    I think a lot of people feel that way time to time. When you do, those are the times where it is a good idea to at least surround yourself with family or do something for your family. If you can ask a friend out to go get a drink and just talk.

    I do at times & have built up resentment around it. Other times, I don't think about it.

    So sorry that you feel that way...I have, too, on occasion, but I didn't really mind all that much.

    No, sorry.
    Though I'm pretty frustrated in my job hunt at the moment :/

    What are you supposed to think when you are perfectly qualified and experienced for a number of jobs you apply for and yet you don't even get an interview?

    It's one reason I'm planning to get out of the industry, but it's not going to happen overnight.
