I have friends, but nobody that I feel like I can just completely open up to. and i'm "crazy" because my thought pattern isn't like most of the people i interact with. and I think that bugs people. This has been bugging the shit out of me lately. I really miss a few of my friends that no longer live here and I dont' see very often. I feel like they're some of the few people that I can truly connect with, but I didn't realize that when they were here. I mean, they were my best friends and I hung out with them all the time, but I never really opened up to them (or anyone), and now that I really want to, the only people that I feel like I can connect with like that are gone. maybe i'm crazy, but that's me and I love it. god damnit.
Your friends are going through similar issues at this age. Nobody knows who they are yet. Afraid to reach out because of this insecurity. As for being "different", drink it in. As you age, you'll find that people who aren't different just blend into the scenary. x
hey, im lonely too. ive moved away from all my friends and you soon realise how damn useless they all were. as soon as i moved i havent heard from any of them since, ive texted and called them but nothing back.....sometimes your better of being lonely....it sucks, but at least u cant blame anyone but urself wen the shit hits the fan. i havent lived where i am long and the only ppl ive met r people from my new job and they are all a bunch of wankers of too old to be my friends so life bites, but u will get used to the isolation...........damn what a bummer that all was.
There is a reason why you feel this way. It is a lesson. Learn from it, accept it, embrace it. Maybe you are just bored.
this is normal. you said you have friends, but can't completely open up to them. just remember - having more friends won't make you feel less lonely, you'll only be less alone.
I know there is a reason I feel this way. The reason is that I want to connect with people that think like I do, but the only ones I know I can do that with are gone now. I don't know what the lesson is, other than everyone i know around here thinks i'm crazy. I am, of course, accepting and embracing the crazy. And yes, i am bored.
I think everyone goes through spells like the one you're describing. The older you get, the harder it becomes to start new friendships and maintain old ones. Even the friendships you do manage to form will lack some of the easy, natural intimacy of the friendships you remember from high school and earlier. The good part is, you'll get used to it. By the time you're thirty, you'll no longer think in terms of "really clicking" with people. If you meet someone you can do lunch with twice a month without dying of boredom or envy, you'll consider your social life a full one.
Don't be lonely!! I know how you feel, my best friends are in Oregon, Washington, Cali, Houston, Missouri and France, and I'm stuck in Wisconsin *gags*
