feeling isolated

I have no friends.... but do I even need them? I feel so alone and see everyone else being happy with each other. I just feel invisible to be honest. I can't trust people because when I do it always goes wrong and they betray my trust or hurt me.

are people really just that terrible???

at least I have my dog. he is an angel

I can't help but feel like you've had some really bad luck with people. Cause I know there're some nice and trustworthy people out there.

I thought for a long time too that I would be fine being alone, but in the last 2 years I've really experienced what a difference kind people can make.

So I encourage you to be brave and keep putting yourself out there, cause a lonely life is not much of a life at all

Having your dog as support is really nice

For what it's worth, I notice that social media, advertisements,and television and movies and so forth always show people with tons, loads and scads of friends, being happy together, hanging out, laughing uproariously together, dancing, carrying on, having a great time together etc. Well, I say it's not true. Everyone has these sad, meaningless, isolated times of life, or periods in life where nothing seems to feel good, or people behave badly and make you feel like humans suck. And some people simply have a tendency toward blues, down mood, and loneliness. Society wants everyone to be happy happy joy joy all the time, especially around the holidays, and it's simply a lie that everyone is up, go-go-go, rah-rah-rah all the time. That's my take, anyway.
