Cant shake loneliness
Hi all, I'm a 58 yo male. I'm extremely lonely and I can't seem to do anything about it.
@proactiveSouth7515 hi sweetie I'm Lola ❤with millions of people in this world, I can't believe we let so many go lonely 🙁 I'm sorry your dealing with this, lonliness is a terrible thing 🙁 bless you. How long have you been on 7 cups?? Have you found any nice friends here yet? You know the group support rooms here, they are great for talking and making friends ❤ and here in the forums, we are all very friendly too🙂❤
Hey mate I'm 50 from the United States we could be friends
@proactiveSouth7515 Sometimes when you're lonely, it can be helpful to figure out your hobbies. When you know what you enjoy, you can look for activities with others who enjoy the same thing. What do you love doing?
Hi there! I’m sorry you’re feeling like this, loneliness can be such a hard thing to deal with, I understand. When I’m feeling lonely, what helps me is getting out into the world. Taking a walk along the road or at a park, going out to stores or coffee shops, doing a simple hobby like reading, listening to music, etc. There are so many ways to get out and about, and see new people and potentionally make new friends! At work, at bars, online, or even going out of your comfort zone and complimenting someone, or striking a conversation with someone. I believe in you!
the key is to put yourself out there! think of it this way: if you have nobody, you don’t really have anything to lose. the majority of meeting people is just being the one to initiate conversation and show interest, that’s about it
Maybe u can join a church or club for people with common interests
@proactiveSouth7515 I am 45 years old and I've been struggling with the same thing!
