Always lonely
I'm 28 years old and I have no friends. The only person close to me was my 6 years long boyfriend who ended up falling in love with another woman. I don't get along with my family that well and they're at 533 km away.
I'm lonely as heck and it will get even worse when I'll move out from his apartment.
I want friends but I don't know how to do it. I feel weird and inappropriate to be around people. I wish I could change it all and be close to people
Hello, young guy, 21, here tho I kinda relate to your feelings of loneliness. I too pretty much only have one person ATM, so I get how that goes. Me and this person stop talking from time to time like recently when she blocked me for a while on everything. It's devistateing to lose your only person, but you have to understand that in the end they are showing you to not have that be your only person. You need to eather just find a way to be happy alone, very hard ik, but just think about it like with no one else to worry about, you can treat yourself to everything you want. And also just try to get back out there, like being here is a great start, plenty of groups here to listen/be heard at. Just keep your head up, your not the only lonely person out there, there's lots of people that need an extra shoulder to cry on, and if there good people they will let you cry on there's too
Thank you for the encouragement. I've read lots of articles and books saying I should learn how to love myself and be happy with my company. I'm trying that, I really am but I'd love to have someone to reach out to. Someone who's not from the Internet. I'll do my best to keep it up and maybe one day I'll have a few friends. But it really is frustrating. I don't understand how people make friends so fast. I'll try to join groups and all of that but I really don't know how to start
I'm sorry you had to deal with all of that and I wish you didn't. You really seem to be stronger than I am, for being able to handle it like this. All the respect to you.
There are lots of awkward people out there right now desperate for friendship. I think that you start from thinking about hobbies and things you enjoy doing. Then you can find people with similar interests. @Noire1208
