So alone

Same

I feel same without gf and if anyone is ready to be a friend with me especially a girl not for relationship but as friends it might be very helpful for me and them

Hi Hannah, I don't have friends, and was abused by a past partner. I'm alone, i live with my family that also abused and neglected me. especially mother. You're not the only one, many of us are alone. It seems to me like it is more common now than ever. a lot of people were lost during covid and us who stayed feel broken and alone.

if you want to chat in this thread, I'd be happy

@Hannahisachristian If one isn't grateful in poverty, the same will not know how to enjoy plenty.

Be of good courage! God strenghtens in solitude.

Story of my life

OMG GIRL you are not alone. NEVER EVER EVER feel alone. There are people all around you who care. I dont know you, but I care. I want everyone to feel safe and excepted. I have felt pain, anxiety and depression and am still struggling to this day, but the way we handle things like this can really affect our futurs. if you ever want to talk, please reach out! ❤️

@Hannahisachristian I understand. I also feel this way. It sucks. I try to overcome this by either hanging around with friends or venting on 7cups. Relief is minimal in either case. I've come to believe this means there is someone I first must become before I can connect with someone meaningful once more. I'm certain there's some kind of oportunity or redemption hidden in this experience. Still sucks though, I understand.

@Hannahisachristian Hehe, many people feel this Hannah! But yes, we can get immensely frustrated by the loneliness. So, when I was in a relationship, I didn't feel like I had enough alone time. It's always the "grass is greener on the other side" scenario when you're not happy. Whether you're in a relationship or alone, you have to put in care and love :) Till the time you're not in one, take care of yourself, try to love yourself... and the right person will come along that journey. You wouldn't want to be solely dependent on them for your happiness right? That's putting too much pressure on them, and also not that great for your self-esteem. You would also not want to be their sole reason for happiness.

Usually those kinds of relationships don't last long... the ones where you are in one for the sake of it. A wise man once said, "The grass is greener where you water it". Take care :)

@Hannahisachristian Having the "right" friends is also important, I'd choose isolation to flocking with birds of a toxic feather. Finding people who will pay attention to us is also getting harder these days, constant distractions. I hope you can find your community!

Along isn’t always a bad thing. When you are along by yourself, you can do things that you like and enjoy it. But sometimes i also feel alone, i think my friends doesn’t care about me, and that could make me feel sad, so its not just you feeling alone, many people have the same problem, so i guess it will be a good idea to find someone that also feel alone but want someone that could understand them.
