Are you really alone? Sometimes who you are is the best company one can have, just depends if you can tolerate yourself... There's a big beautiful world out there...

The problem is I am the only one who wants to share that big
Beautiful world with myself.. Which is ok some days.. But days like
today.. It's just hollow.. And lonely

you have all the nuts on this forum... it's only virtual sure but it can still count!
I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!
We called it the Sunday single disease. I would think about all the couples who are having arguments over sleeping in, breakfast time, house cleaning, the tv program, the dishes, screaming spoiled children running around ...
Treat yourself something nice, have a hot chocolate, snuggle up on the sofa, watch a Doris Day movie ... Hugs and enjoy your Sunday :wave:
Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!
Oh I've been doing some drinking trust!! I think I'm just supposed
to die alone, I make these efforts to do things, meet
new people.. So in the end I have ten mile long
list of guy 'friends' and they allllllllllllllll love my sister,
Or her friends, or my one female friend.. I hate being
Everyone's "friend" and getting ignored.. I used to be
ok with that order of things and figured something
would happen for me one day.. Now I realize I've been
Lying to myself all along.. Life will always go on, and
So will I; just I have to go alone.. Think I'll go buy
some stock in Kleenex..
Unwanted loneliness sucks and you have my support, WH, and probably that of anyone here who has been there. This is a great place to chase that bug away for a while.
Going out and trying something new very often helps. After five years of dead loneliness I went out from hiding and took a class, and then later some more classes and then did volunteer work and then got a new job and then started my own small business. The best advice I ever got was to start moving- movement is life. But right now you just need some empathy and you came to the right place. Thank goodness for the PJ forum!
Take care- keep us posted and be safe.

I'll be ok.. I just have this emotional landslide going on!
I haven't really gone through this this bad in years, add in
the physical pain with the emotional desolation,
and somedays it's just hard to keep your head up.
I went for a nice long five hour hike yesterday.. I
needed to get out STAYSEA is right out weather here has
Been do unforgiving. And yesterday was the first day
In a long time where it was nice enough to go out..
I usually do ok by myself.. Just.. Nit lately. I want to
share all the wonderful things I know, and want to
Learn NEW wonderful things as well. I have so much love
to offer, but no one seems to care... Eventuay it just
grinds you down. Especially when the guy you like,
Ends up liking your sister..and forgets you exist.. Wasn't
My sister's fault... She'd have never done that to me.
I just never told her I liked him... Just a lot of shit..
10 years ago, I would have just gone and gotten
Another cat, when this one passed... But I'm more
Responsible now, and I know that it wouldn't be fair to
the cat... Someday... Until this.. Loneliness is my
Greatest foe. And the people here, my greatest allies.
Hi, my friend... Sounds like you had a rough day today. Hope you're feeling better. It was quiet even on the board today which can make one feel even more alone. I was busy but checked in a couple of times and nothing too interesting going on. Glad to hear you got outside a bit. The weather has been relentless in your direction. Hopefully you'll get a string of warmer days with some sunshine. I'm always amazed at how bright sunshine and the vitamin d that comes with it can make even insurmountable problems seem more manageable. Wish I was more insightful, but really I just wanted you to know that even though we've never met I truly value every interaction we have. You always bring a smile to my face. Thanks for that. Hope we have a chance to meet sometime. I know we will have plenty to talk about.
