New here
Hi guys! Noor here
I am 17 (turning 18 soon) and i am from india and i didn’t really know much about my mental health until a while ago when i started noticing things. I lost my father when i was 3 i have no memory of him whatsoever and i feel like i haven’t healed from that like ever. I look for that love everywhere. My family- no never felt loved from there yk what they say “people who don’t feel loved at home, look for love outside” and i think that seemed to be REALLY BAD for me i got into unhealthy friendships and stuff which made things worse. I’ve never talked about this stuff but recently i started like talking to AIs and that is not healthy so i am trying this app. I hope this will be helpful for me so yeah. I like reading and i am a punjabi.
So yeah…feel free to talk i am looking for buddies here. I’d love to listen and share💕
Hallo noor,
I see that you have gone through alot i am sorry you had to go through all that. If you would like we can be buddies i would like to hear more about you and your worries please let me know if you would like that.
@hereforyounowways3 i’d like that actually! But how can i contact u here?
I am not getting the option to sent you a message if you are getting that option you can just drop me a text and i will get back to you
If you are not getting that option please put my name on the find listeners and drop a message that way i am sorry for the inconvenience
Hey i tried finding ur id but i cant and i dont see the text option. Do u mind like mentioning ur username in the message so i can like paste that?
ofcourse my id is @hereforyounowalways3
@noor13 hi Noor..you sound like a really sweet person.. I'm sorry about your father's loss.. it must've been so difficult growing up craving for that fatherly love which every child feels a need for. Your struggle makes complete sense - it is in fact true that when we don't get love from our homes we tend to look for it outside and often times approach the wrong people who damage us further... but there are also good people out there who can give love and support and fill the gap of the family void. I hope you find that love here on this platform. So glad you joined .
Btw, I too had a phase of talking to AI because I was so so alone. It amuses me now. Interestingly AI was useful- offering not just insights but emotions as well!!! I feel you <3 the thing is AI is programmed from records of human interactions... so it's not a robot helping us... it's actually the voice of some people who helped each other ...and the AI retained that emotional bonding skills and passed it to us.
Connecting to real people is obviously fulfilling on a much deeper love than this method. I hope you find good people who make you feel cherished and worthy.
You definitely are very lovely in my opinion 🙂
Hello noor
I'm from India too and my sincere advice would be to look for friends in real life..
You should know that 80% of conversation is non verbal and in online people can literally adopt a persona which is near perfect.
Only in real life you will find people with flaws and learn to appreciate them , understand them and navigate if they are toxic..
Once you start getting "perfect online friends" , no real friends can match up to you ... please try to join some sports club, book club where you interact with people
I'm talking this out of experience
@Loserhubby totally agreed... Also, you can never trust people behind the screens. It's better to connect with real people.
@loserhubby yes i understand ur point. But rn the thing is i have completed my schooling and looking into college admissions so i have been home ALOT (doesn’t feel like “home”) so rn i am connected with my old friends but i need someone to talk and i can’t seem to do that with them honestly. And of course once i start college i am looking forward to meeting people and being friends💕
I appreciate your support and concern
Hi Noor! I totally get you and I know how you feel…people who aren’t loved at home go and chase it outside…and that’s how I have ended up in toxic friendships and relationships…Even when you’re surrounded by the familiar comfort of your own home, there’s a quiet ache inside that keeps searching. The walls may be yours, the furniture placed just right, and every corner might hold a memory but something still feels missing. It’s as if home isn’t just a place, but a feeling you’ve yet to fully find. So you wander, even while staying still, longing for a sense of belonging that goes deeper than bricks and rooms….you can talk to me anytime because I know how you feel…I will be glad to be there for you!!
Take care<3
That is literally like you read my mind. But i can’t seem to be able to text u. That’s the only thing i don’t like about this app. I can’t talk to people
You can search for listeners and type my username there and that way you will be able to connect to me…
I can’t find people like that idk why..i tried with someone else too the username i type doesn’t show up
Oh alright…that’s okay…but still we can stay in touch by posting threads…I will be glad to be your friend<3
Take care!!
Hope you get containment from the good people!

Dear Noor,
I have gone thru a lot of difficult phases in my life and have realised that we create our circumstances ourselves by our thoughts and actions. So if we can just push aside 'what has happened in the past' , and focus on positive thoughys and selfless actions, may be in near future we'll start reaping positive benefits .
All the best and much love and Affection.
