55 and still a missfit

drummerathome1 April 15th, 2022

I've never really fit in anywhere, that's nothing new. I've done and been many things. Leader, supervisor, husband, father just to name a few. And yet still to this day I have no friends and somehow feel like a complete failure in life. I guess this is just life for me.

I understand how it must be like to feel lonely, misfit and misunderstood

What might help you feel better about your situation? What's something you would want to change about it? ❤️

who said you had to fit in just be you and the right friends will come to you for who you are it might take a bit but maybe you have to take the first step

@drummerathome1 That's tough... Just remember dwelling on your problems or rehashing your mistakes will keep you stuck. Stop thinking "I'm a failure," and focus on a more positive perspective like; "I'm capable of making friends. Also you might check out getting into some shadow work. Shadow work can be very helpful in allowing you to be aware of your limiting beliefs which are often stuck in the subconscious. If all else fails theirs always online discussion groups about things that peek your interest. Who knows maybe you'll make a friend.


Best wishes my friend

I am the same way, only I choose to be a loner. I cannot say I feel like a failure though because I chose this way of life. I have no "real" friends, but do have work and social acquaintances and if I go places it's usually only with my girlfriend. She is a social butterfly and does her things with her girls, which is fine by me. I like to stsy home and keep to myself. Less stress and drama caused by others that way.
