Loneliness has made me second guess myself a lot. It's made me feel like I'm weak on my own. It's made me feel like I'm incapable of making bonds with others. I really need to work on believing in myself and finding my own strength rather than finding my strength in others. It's going to be hard, but I just really want to get to a stage where I am at peace with myself and then I'll be much stronger when people in my life leave me and it'll give me the strength to stay away from toxic people.

I feel exactly the same as you right now. Sometimes I do have good days where I finally feel strong and sure of myself on my own, but then I'll spend a few days with people and once they leave I can't stand being on my own again. It's so hard, but I have hope that I'll get stronger in time. And so will you! :)

I feel lonely, too, even when I'm with friends. But when I do something for others, (like listening here at 7 cups), the feeling decreases.

This feeling of constant loneliness is starting to get to me. Ive been left and hurt so many times by people recently that I find myself pushing out the people who want to help. This intensifys the lonley feeling. I want to be lonley and I want to have people who care it's just so hard to trust that I won't get hurt again because I don't think I can handle that.

@SomeoneGood I 100% get what we mean. Unfortunately in life gaining and loosing happens. I think both of us need to learn how to cope with loosing, how to let go and move on and build on believing in our selves. I hope both of us gets to that place one day, but for now good luck and keep pushing on!

@SomeoneGood

I feel the same way. I seem to attract people easily but I am so worried about being betrayed and abandoned that i push people away and become nasty to them to give them an actual reason to leave... otherwise i get hurt if i was being my normal self (nice) and they leave which makes no sense to me. I no longer know how to make friends and it's eating me uo inside.

@happyrayne aw :( well I think what's best or the time being is that you focus on yourself before having relationship with others. A bad relationship with yourself effects relationships with other which I'm sure you can agree. I have faith in you! :)

Exactly, and it's a feeling really heavy to care. It begin to become the only problem. How funny is it, when i am with people, at the moment we left each others i feel deeply alone... But you're true it's about learning to love yourself and maybe not comparing to others.

I find myself wanting to reach out. Then getting anxious because I know I might negatively internalize a response that is just as simple as the person is too busy at the moment. So I pull back and scold myself for being a coward.

Loneliness is a miserable feeling. I wish more listeners understood that they just need to be there for us and just chit chat, make jokes and just be normal. We lonely people don't always alot to discuss or say as we can still think fine for the most part. We just need some life to be around us.

Hope you all feel much better soon. Miserable feeling, it really is.

Listeners please don't be afraid to take a chance and make a joke.

I think the most painful thing on this planet is loneliness, having no one, even if there are crowds everywhere😥😥even parents not loving unconditionally they think men are just for making money and serving the family it's so, pathetic

Same situation but had to endure it for much longer.

Please do everything you can to escape this now because the longer you stay in it the harder it becomes to get out. Do it now and not later.
Good luck and wish you the best.
