I’m Lonely… Talk to Me?
I’m putting out a similar post to what others have made recently… Struggling a bit, requesting someone to talk to and distract me… The nights are harder than the days. My texts are silent, 7Cups is silent, I’m bored and lonely, and on the less-good days, my mind wanders into a deep depression. Today, I’m ok, just feeling a bit lonely, no one to talk to… None of my friends are texting me back and the forums are too quiet for me… Talk to me about anything? Random topics, stories, games, news, things going on in your life, tell me about that pretty bug you saw outside today, I don’t care what it is, just keep me company. Not just tonight, but in general. Life gets lonely over here…
No creepy or weird conversations, please. Just good conversation, make me think, let me find new friends, etc. Recommend good kids’ and YA books, tell me about good shows and movies on Netflix, come up with random ideas for icebreakers I can make, tell me about fun things you learned at school, suggest a new hobby, ask me questions, get to know me <3 Anything goes. Random is fun! <3
I will add a taglist to start, but this is open to everyone, new and old! <3
@jesusredeemedme2425
I'm super lonely
Lonely, stay here and interact! You will make actual real friends. No bots here, real live people to pour your heart out to. Sorry your lonely. I am too to a degree. I learned to be alone but not lonely. But would rather be interacting with folks. And this place is about as caring a place as you will find! Hugs!
Me too. Is there anything you’ve found that makes it better?
Hello! If you ever find yourself needing someone to talk to I’d be more than willing to listen! I know in the world of technology we live in life sorta gets isolating. But it also brings the opportunity to have connections like these!
Stay positive! (^_^)
Messaged you :)
@jesusredeemedme2425 hey, I saw this cute red dragonfly today, and it didn't notice me so I got a really close look and in the night I walk on roof for an hour and count the number of satellites, yesterday I only saw one satellite but saw 8 airplane! This is my favourite hobby, out of anything. What's one funny thing that happened with you recently?
Balsam, that red dragonfly saw you. It just let you watch! Their eyesight is wayyyy better than ours! And only when l lived out in Colorado for a time, away from city lights, could l see satellites with the naked eye. Watched the space station go over and loved it. Now in a city, too much background light to watch now, except for planes!
@warmheartedHuman836 hey, that is great that you used to see satellites and I am happy for you that you can still see airplanes, if it is the case that the dragonfly saw me and still let me watch, then I must admit I am more than lucky!!!😉😉😉
Balsam, dragonflies are also called Mosquito Hawks. They can fly really fast and make pinpoint accurate turns to snatch mosquitoes out of the air. I have had them land on me. I think we appear in slow motion to them. They know they are faster than us for sure! A miracle little animal in the way their wings work. One of God's really amazing creatures, similar to a hummingbird in a way. I think l watch too many nature shows! Lolol
@warmheartedHuman836 hey that is some real knowledge! I didn't new this, I especially didn't knew dragonflies eat mosquitoes and they can fly this fast . It's amazing how u know so much!
Balsam, memory fails me, but dragonflies can fly at ridiculous speeds, maybe 60 when they choose to. (That might be wrong) but l love nature shows and have watched a ton of them. Some of it sticks! Ha
Balsam, why are you here? Is it okay to ask? I am still not sure if l am crossing a line to ask such things. I came here because of physical pain, chronic, but found that my life experience and positive outlook on life (usually) has made me able to encourage others in anxiety, depression,loneliness and such. And as l encourage others, l barely notice my pain. It's as if l am encouraging myself at the same time so l love it here with SO many nice and caring individuals to talk with, like you and about everyone l have posted to in my 2 weeks being here!!!
@warmheartedHuman836 hey it is fine to ask, I just have anxiety regarding my exams . It was good to know about you and I am really happy for you that you get peace and actually find it helpful to help others! Good luck with everything 🍀🍀🍀🍀
Balsam, thanks for the encouraging posts. I remember exams, not the most fun times. Ha
@warmheartedHuman836 indeed not the most fun times, I am glad you cleared this phase!!! Ha ha ha
Me too, scarlet! Glad for no more cramming sessions! Lol
Scarlet, what do you want to do in life. Are you that far along yet in your thinking?
@warmheartedHuman836
Yeah! I want to help people, find answers to so many things, to live a peaceful life, have a small house, a garden maybe perhaps a flower shop, marry someone I love, have children and all!
Scarlet! About the best answer l can imagine to the question l asked. I love it! Seems you have been raised right! Just a normal life with a best friend for life as your partner! And a small business that could get big, never know? Love what you wrote. Makes my day! Hugs!
@warmheartedHuman836
Aww, thank you very much 💕 💕 💕, hugs you back . Wish me luck that I can live a good life one like this!
You can l have no doubt! Love the idea of a little house, couple of kids playing in the backyard with the dog, your mate as your best friend. It is the Amercan dream to me. Not to be rich, but be happy! I pray it all happens for you Scarlett. I feel that it will!!!!
@warmheartedHuman836
Aww thank you very much!!!
You are most welcome sweet one! Thanks for making my day with you answer! Carry on, l will shush now. Ha
@warmheartedHuman836 ohh ! Ohkiii, good bye ! I will also sleep in an hour.
I just feel l am taking up all your time. Talk with younger folks! But l am always here to Gab, my favorite hobby at the moment. Lol
@warmheartedHuman836
Hey, I would love to talk to u, I am 18 I talk with my grandma and aunt who are like 78 and 60. I think I get along more well with older people! It will be really fun to talk with u! How about you create a forum post, tag me in it. I will talk with u there !
No clue how to donany of that, or maybe l do? Just post something anywhere, and #scarleyBalsam388 in the message? Is that what l do?
Other than misspelled you screen name?
Create a forum post, is what is throwing me?
@warmheartedHuman836
I created a forum post and tagged you in it !
Well, how in the heck do l find it! You can tell l am 68! Lolololol
@warmheartedHuman836 .
Hey I created a forum post and tagged you in it !
A forum post? I have looked, just not clue where to find how l am "tagged ", lol. Or where a new forum post might appear? I am technologically challenged to say the lesst!
@warmheartedHuman836hey click on my profile and scroll down you will find a post, I have tagged you in it !
Well, scarlett my dear, lol, l got to your profile, l can see all your awards. I have no computer, just this dandruff cell phone, and there ain't no "clicking" on your profile that l can figure out. I push on your skyline pic, hold it down, nothing happens. The littke Diddy on the right side is only to bock or report you, so l cannot for the life of me figure how to "click on your profile and scroll down" lol. I am truly hopeless it appears. I'm still trying to find how to do it, maybe it will come to me in a dream? Lol
@warmheartedHuman836 hey that's great that you love nature shows. Ohh ! It's fine even if the fact is wrong, I just love watching dragonflies in different colours!
Ooh cool, dragonflies eat mosquitoes??? Good. I’m a buffet to mosquitoes apparently hehe
*warmheartedhuman, l hope that is how l get on your tag line? I'm a talker so l will love to keep you company anytime. At 68, I'll have crazy stories enough to keep your mind occupied for sure of crazy stuff l have done and seen through the years before social media existed. Love you kiddo! I hope l am now on your tag line?
Bastion, you are hilarious! Great post! I learned to juggle rocks, bored to death at an outside job at 16 yrs old. And you can do it sitting down, but no margin for error. Love your list and upbeat sense of humor! Glad you are here!!!
@warmheartedHuman836
*Smiles happily* Your nickname certainly suits you well, for the warmth does indeed seem to radiate from you with your effervescent, good natured posts. I am very glad you are amongst us.
And you learned to juggle rocks? Kudos! I started with fruit...for I was told when I was young not to play with my food....and since I had no intention of eating the satsumas and apples I was given, I felt free to play away! But rocks!? Colour me impressed! After all, I never had to worry about missing a catch and then dropping the odd satsuma on my toes.
Knight, tiny rocks, big gravel in a littke bldg supply parking lot. I finally got so good at it l would pick up fruit in grocery stores and put them back when through. Ha. Now l am always sitting as a paraplegic, way harder to juggle, cant take a quick step to catch a miss-thrown whatever? And have to keep it above my knees! Must be far more exacting in your throws sitting down!! Haha
Oh, and knight, thanks for the things you said about me. My head suddenly gained weight! Lol
At least a satsuma would hurt less than a rock. Hehe
@warmheartedHuman836, hey click on my profile picture and see my profile, scroll down you will find a forum post !
Ok
Hi! Tell us your elevator pitch for the new imaginary business you’re going to start ;)
@jesusredeemedme2425 how are you today? 🤍
*cue a little (i hope) yapping*
Ever seen a china rose? Pretty flower, that. We brought some in today, put it in a vase. I draw flowers xD you have any specific thing you draw, or are you a general art master?
If youre into sketching, i definitely recommend flowers. Hibiscuses are easy to draw and shade. Roses arent as hard as they look (i was surprised!). And you dont ever need to erase, trust me. Whatever mistake was made it can be salvaged. Flowers are cool like that xD
We got three new books! One is of a religion so...but the other two are the dubliners and an agatha christie book. Gimme a signal if you want to hear a mini yap on agatha christie, by the by xD
hope these posts here are a little help. may you find solace from your troubles soon 🤍
Unassuming, l can pencil draw, scetch very well. But l tried painting, oh my, that is an entirely different skill! I am always impressed with those who paint well. It is a great gift!
@warmheartedHuman836 Im no good at painting, either. Just paint when you want to have messy, chaotic fun xD sketching is more calming for me, and atleast Ive got a little skill there 😀
I googled it. They’re so pretty! <3
I specialize in wolves. Drawing a LOT of Toothless too lately hehe
Have you tried drawing black silhouettes??
What religion? (You don’t have to tell me btw) <3
I don’t know anything about the other two books lol
signal ;)
How’s my buddy Eyes doing lately??? <3
@jesusredeemedme2425 your buddy eyes is so mentally distracted she forgot she ever wrote this post. Help! xD
Can I see a drawing of Toothless? I love the not so little guy. And wolves! Theyre cute and no one can change my mind
The religion is Islam
*cue (small *hopefully*) Agatha Christie yap*
I dont know if youve read any of her works, but theyre Sherlock-Holmes type of detective novels. Some of her mystery books have an old, sweet lady (Miss Marple) as the one figuring everything out, which is !! xD Agatha Christie was an expert in everything. According to some sources, when she attempted to find the expert in some field of archaelogy, the archaeologist said: "You are" (the expert) which, goals xD
This gal also went and disappeared for 11 days and never told anyone why, effectively making her own life a mystery. She wrote romance books under a pen name "Mary Westmacott". And she caused 12 year old me to try and write detective books 😅
@jesusredeemedme2425 Pick one then I'll pick one :)
What have you done that’s exciting lately? <3
@jesusredeemedme2425 i don't know i just feel frustrated like idk why even after having great privileges great parents still... uk i can't even explain through words the things i am going through and the irony is imaa just 14
yah many wonder what can someone a child like me even go through i haven't even see the world haha
leave it wellll do u read kafka's books? try it lovely and deep filled with psychology and uk irony of the unfair world
byee:)
Keira, no way! You seem much older than 14! You are an impressive young girl! I figured you were either a senior in high school or freshman in college! I just noticed you were extraordinarily sweet. Stay as sweet as you are. People tend to let this evil world squeeze the sweetness out of them. You will make a awesome partner for somebody, someday! That is just a fact! Don't change other than keep learning vitally important things such as dragonfly trivia! Lololol
Do you mean like your privileges make it so you don’t experience the harder things, so you can’t relate?
I’ve never read those. Are they good? :)
I started rewatching My So Called Life the other day! I loved that show when it was first released, and I don't think it aged too badly. Even if it isn't good, it's a great shot of nostalgia 😊 Claire Danes is one of my favorite actresses because of this show!
What're you watching lately? Anything I should check out??
Specter, Claire Danes is a hottie. Have you ever seen "Meet Joe Black" with Brad Pitt in his prime with Claire as his live interest. Whew, it is a very odd movie, but wow was their some amazing chemistry on screen. Claire was amazing, been a fan ever since!
Ooh, I’m watching Next Gen Chef! It’s got an AMAZING vibe and it’s so much fun to watch <3
I like those cooking challenge shows, I'll have to check it out!
I went to the gym today and i learned few stuff from my friend. I also use heavier weight today but ended up with great pain at home haha. I having a hard times moving from sitting to standing.
Me too. If I’m on the floor, imma struggle hard to get up XD
What’s your fave non-gym workout? <3
Minghao, you know you work a muscle, overload it to damage it so it comes back stronger. But if you overdo it, like you likely did if you can barely stand, you will end up just quitting! So gradual increase in weight, you can't rush it. Muscles take a few days to come back stronger of course. But if you go up slowly in weight, you will keep at it! Really, horribly sore muscles will talk you out of even going to the gym. Ha.
