The Worst Thing About Loneliness

Sometimes people do get busy. Also, I think people can not be that busy that they can't call. I agree that we can't talk everyday or week. I for one feel that we can put aside our business to talk. People hide too much behind there jobs. It's different if they have kids. But if their kids are grown, the person needs to let them go. I am going through the same thing. I just lost a friend. She is always busy, but I find her going out with friends to a football game, basketball game, movie, going to a party, someones house, having fun. I was never invited. We only talked three times within the past year. I do understand how you feel. I can't catch a break in making friens and keeping them. I can't relate to people who say they don't have friens, but have their spouses. They have someone. I don't have anyone either. NOONE. Can't talk to family, because they turned their back on me. They ignore me too. Be your own best friend.

I feel your pain. I have 9 brothers/sisters and one calls. He has a short term memory problem so he calls often, forgetting he already called...but the rest of the family, don't call. Don't know why...even my kids get busy and don't call, unless they need money of course. It's tough to not be around them all the time but I need to let them grow up. Harder on me than them I think. I have my puppy, but she doesn't answer me. She just gives me a head tilt as if to say "what the heck are you talking about"..lol

Wow, now that you mentioned that.... I think I'm in the same situation. How sad is that? :(

ii feel the same way every single day:/

Hi all, sorry I haven't got back to you all yet still learning how this works....I need to buy some credits first so will reply to my messages soon.xx

Well u could always call me i am in the same boat. lol

I totally understand you try pulling yourself out of it, but you can't shake it you try to do something enjoyable but it hurts. And all you want is someone to wrap you in the arms and hold be it a parent or friend. And theres no one there to comfort. You just sit there alone.

I totally agree with what you say about the worst thing with loneliness is realising nobody is thinking of you. I had the same thought recently. I am so sorry you are going through this now and I hope things get better for you. Sending you a hug :)

I agree with you...im feel th same too...

Your not the only person who has this problem

I want to thank you all for your wonderful comments....I am feeling stronger today and know that I will get through another day. For those of you who messaged me, I will get back to you tonight after work.... Thanks again all xx

The worst thing for me i the fact that being alone gives me the opportunity to think about all the negative things about myself and then being lonely just feels worse to me

the worst thing is sleeping alone or witha pillow in your arms that willnot talk to you as you thing of what could have been if not for death

You are only alone if you choose to be alone. Just because someone doesn't call or constantly ask you how you are doing, doesn't mean they love or think of you any less than you do of them. People get busy, and anything you think or feel is not unique to only you. Enjoy life and find your happiness.

i can totally relate & i'm so sorry you are going through this. i have no-one. no friends, no family just me & my wondering about how they are, or what they are doing, or if they are ok, if they love me, if they will call me, or if they will one day come visit etc etc.

i have given up just recently & i am now ,more alone then ever.......oh well! what can i do? keep trying? keep being shut down? i don't know anymore

:(

Please don't let this put you off. I'm sorry this is happening to you and that you feel this way. It is unfair but I think a lot of people feel this way at different points in their life, whether they admit it is another thing. Try and keep positive. Thinking of you xx

I think there's a real danger in caring for someone expecting them to care for you in return.

So if you are kind to 100 people, maybe 2 or 3 of them will do something back one day.

There's not really a problem with that at all because being kind to 100 people is a good thing in itself and 2-3 friends are all you really need.



Don't be discouraged. :)

I just read an article in Womens Health mag saying 30% of people experience loneliness but we don't admit it x

I was just thinking about this. I'm so sorry that it's like this for you too.

I can relate to this so much. Loneliness is soul destroying. I wonder everyday what I did to deserve this.

I am sorry you are going through it as well xx
