dude, i typed in "I am lonely" in google, and your post was the very first response.
does that make you the most popular lonliest person on the planet?
its not much fun being like this. i don't know why this happend to me and you guys too. i thought i was a normal enough person for a long time.
All the people on here speak so much truth.
Loneliness is such a tough feeling... it eats at you from the inside of your soul.
i am not a geek or anything i just happend to have my computer as my best friend since the age of 12
but now I realized how much I had missed during those yaers
all the friends I could of made
all the experiences I could of had
The friends I had don't live in my area anymore and are always busy--I email them, and don't hear back for months.
Then I email again and now I think I must be irritating them because I'm needy.
What is missing from our lives? How can we feel complete?
What am I searching for... I don't know.
Every sight I behold, every thought I have, is directed towards something that I cannot decide exists or is a madness that lies inside me.
I feel it is so close, if only I knew where to look.
I am waiting.
How can life be so beautiful and so ugly at the same time?
I am so lonely that being around the people I love makes me even more alone.
He or she that is an individual, with the smallest hint of uniqueness, is doomed to be lonely.
Why? That's awfully pessimistic.
Because no one can claim that they really understand what it's like to be that person for an entire lifetime.
What about finding fulfillment from bringing people into your life?
yeah. peopel make friends when they get something out of it. its a selfish thing.
Hmm I guess I don't see the world in such bleak terms...
im not saying its a bad thing. everone just wants to belong. its what makes them act like idiots.
I really should get a therapist to talk to so I don't have to be so desperately needy.
Anyone out there in therapy? How do you go about starting? And how much does it cost?
saw a councellor a couple times. it was okay.
he said that we treat people a certain way to push them away when we really want them near.
Complex at its core, simple in its nature, life moves on...
I watch it fly past and reach out to taste its bitter sweetness.
I want to change the world, yet leave it as it is. Broaden the light by turning off the switch.
I would free it if I knew how.
My brain swims and yet it sits... waiting.
Very profound, Mark71.
I wish peopel would carry advertisment banners around with them.
youd be able to see if anyone is lonely, single or happy, etc.
What would yours say?
i dunno. Nothing.
can anyone tell me a really good song?
a cheer-up song?
The song that cheers me up is that "I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair" by Sandi Thom.
Thats a really nice song. Love the lyrics.
There is a movie, you may have seen it.
About how we get "addicted" to the feelings we are used to, whether or not they are good for us.
I think it is true of loneliness as well.
well Id rather be together with my lonliness than alone with other people
who wouldn't?
Maybe we would not be so lonely if we stopped expecting things from each other.
We aren't making each other less lonely,
all we can offer is...
