Lonely😕
Feeling really lonely today. I woke up just wanting connection, craving that feeling of being loved and wanted. It’s hard not to sit with these feelings and let them take over. I know I shouldn’t tie my worth to being in a relationship, but it’s tough when it feels like something is missing. I miss having someone to talk to, to share little moments with, to just exist with. I keep reminding myself that this feeling won’t last forever, but right now, it just feels heavy. If anyone relates, how do you cope with this? Just looking for some words of encouragement
I'm exactly where you are now and my heart goes out to you. What I'm doing to get further than 2 steps forward everyday is knowing that what I'm doing for myself now, will benefit me in the future. The nights are the hardest. But hang in there. Easier said than done, right? The more you talk about your emotions, the better you'll feel. Look at the step in front of you, not the whole staircase.
You're doing great by reaching out to others. We're all here to hear you. You're feelings are valid and you're loved ♥️
@selfdisciplinedField3689 thank you so much for the kind words! I def have to think that this will better me in the future even if it’s hard now ugh
There is a balance, spending time with the people you love is great .
However if you require external validation to feel loved all the time then you will always feel left wanting more.
People that thrive do so by loving themselves first then finding those that do the same and then finally finding a romantic partner that has made it their life to do the same of finding love inside first then outside.
Those that love themselves are able to be more upbeat, positive and happy despite everyone else around them being depressed and miserable. Hence why these type of people can be very attractive especially if they demonstrate self love through more visible means like working out and having a great circle of friends that reflects their cool personality.
@Michael205 thank you for responding I appreciate it a lot. You know what you’re right. I’ll be always wanting more. I gotta love myself and be me and someone will come along ✨
@Priscella
i can relate….
i do exactly what you said-remind myself that it will pass, sit with the sadness a bit and then show it the door.
💕
@easyWater4109 yesss it is worse at night ugh it’s annoying :( but yes I also try to sit with it then let it go! Thank you for replying I appreciate it ✨
Yeah I've felt that a lot .. still feel it at times... it's normal to feel this way.. we humans are creatures of love.. we give love and need love to survive.... but I feel making ourselves feel miserable in its absence doesn't quite work in bringing that love to us... accepting your circumstances with grace enables you to feel your power ... and that too is a form of love equally valuable...
One day love from someone will come to you without your asking (fingers crossed) and youll look back to this single time that was fulfilling and rewarding in its own way. So just enjoy the beauty of this time with a generous heart and let life surprise you
@Priscella
I have felt that way too... But maybe the only thing I can give is tight hugs🫂🫂🫂
