A
s my name implies I'm married.... but, I'm still oh so lonely... we had to move away for money reasons... I don't really have any friends here. I don't get along with his family well enough to really be comfortable around them. It isn't that we don't get along at all it is just that it takes a lot for me to be comfortable around anyone. I have one son but, he is still a toddler and it just isn't the same as having a friend. Yes I have my husband but, I can't talk to him about everything. Besides when we do talk because we live in the same house we pretty much know everything about each other already. I am a people person through and through but, my husband works on computers so when it comes to things out side the home neither one of is really all that interested and most of that is because we don't understand it. I mean I just get by with working on one I have no clue whatsoever on how to fix a computer. I have a husband and a son but, I'm still lonely. I had previoulsy thought that, that would be enough. How can someone still be lonely? Well, I know I am.

  | Posted Oct 28th, 2009 at 4:00PM Do you have a job? I work at a grocery store as a cashier, when I go to work I talk to so many people! I get pretty bored sitting around the house with my fiance too and sometimes going to work just puts me out with so many people that it just cheers me right up.   |
 | Posted Oct 29th, 2009 at 12:10PM I can relate. My kids are all grown now and i am married to a man who is not their father yet you could not tell he loves them as much as i do. But i could be in a room full of a million people and i still feel alone :-( Its an awful feeling |
 | Posted Oct 29th, 2009 at 12:50PM i am sorry for your loneliness. everyone needs to share sometimes. i like the suggestions i saw above about getting a job with lots of people contacts. also volunteering can expose you to people with common interests who may become friends. i just recently had a falling out with my best friend, and it is awful. i feel lonely without her, even though i too have a husband and two children. i sympathize |
  | Posted Oct 29th, 2009 at 4:18PM ah yes a hobbie would be good for you, or joining some club near you. my fiance works on computers too but I havent seen hi for 5 months cause of the military, I am lonely with out him. Try going to church you might meet a lot of night friendly people. |
| Posted Nov 2nd, 2009 at 5:07AM You do not mention your age or other interests but your story is sad. Love is not enough if we don't bring something to the relationship. Leave now that you are young (not leave HIM, just leave). Or find work even if it means that all your pay will go to a babysitter. If you ll stay like this you will regret it like most of us. +2 nods |
 | Posted Nov 2nd, 2009 at 8:08AM Perhaps you might also be suffering from depression. Have you ever thought about speaking to a professional...such as a therapist about this? If you don't have supportive friend and family as you say, and you can't quite share everything with your husband, a therapist is someone that you CAN share everything with. I'd at least give it a try. |
 | Posted Nov 2nd, 2009 at 12:15PM What can I suggest you to do is to try to find friends from other countries and talk about their culture and know their country by what they share with the only thing that you have to be very careful about is to try to get in touch with good people so taht you wont get in problems Iam fron central America and I would like to share with you things about my country and my people this "talking" is very interesting and you will get to know how people live in other countries. +2 nods |
 | Posted Nov 2nd, 2009 at 1:53PM Only way to get out of being lonely is getting out of the house. Find some way to meet people! |
 | Posted Nov 2nd, 2009 at 2:43PM I guess I forgot to mention I'm a full time college student. I have a very hard time talking to new people and I went to a therapist years ago that diagnosed me with depression. My insurence ran out almost 2 years ago. I can't afford to go to any doctor for anything and am currently trying to figure out what to do about getting state care but, I'm still in the process... |
 | Posted Nov 2nd, 2009 at 6:55PM I agree you. |
