Lonely

I'm really lonely. I don't really have any social contacts in this town, and I'm between jobs at the mo, not that work seems a place where I can meet social contacts. I just would like to find a nice realtionship that meant something, doesn't seem there's anyone out there for me. I should have loads going for me, but it all seems to have gone(I wrote the 'abnormal? thread)

aww

dont worry - everyone has lonely times in life but hopefully things will pick up before long - try to get out nd socialise as much as possible: even if it means calling people you wouldt normally call but just to get out ad socialise?

Good Luck with the new job,

Chin up hun :hugs:

I always feel if I make a social move that I'm needy or a burden on people.

not at all - go for it! Especially as a one off - maybe if EVERY single night you were inviting yourself over to their houses and never leaving but just suggesting goig out somewhere is not at all needy! im sure you'll be suprised how keen others are :smile:

I was a lonely person in school/sixth form/college.

I did talk to people but most of the time, I sat in the corner by myself.

Well, always thought I was the uncool one lol!

Believe or not, I have never gone out drinking with my friends in my entire life. Didn't really *go out* with friends at night because I wasn't allowed to.

What about trying to find people with similar interests to you? That is a start :smile:

Not at all - a lot of people dont enjoy uni as much as they make others think... just there seems to be an unspoken rule that you "shoudnt talk about not having a nice time at uni" - but i think that rubbish

uni isnt for everyone - i do know some peopl that hated uni and dropped out and are much happier now!

:hugs:

Sorry i keep replying - jst trying to help but ill keep quiet now!! honest!! ;thumbsup;

Oh I was allowed, I just chose to be a self-obsessed **** for ages, now I'm regretting it. No good realtionship ever, and I'm 26. However, the grass is always greener and I'm not saying everyone else is in heaven and gets what they wanted.

I have absolutely no idea where to find a girl. Sure there are loads, but someone special who can bring out something good in me, restore me to my former self. Maybe the best chance of that was uni.

your not, i fail to see how im supposed to find sometimes 6hours a week lecture time fulfilling and life changing...I did more work for my A Levels.

as an above poster said, the negative points of uni dont get discussed as much

I know how you feel. I used to feel great around my friends but I had to leave them because one of my illnesses got too extreme. I have no friends whatsoever at home and, perhaps ironically, being at home has worsened the symptoms of the illness I was sent home to recover from. Loneliness is a horrible thing.
