i know how you feel. Ive been in that boat for some time now. I have a feeling im going to meet somebody soon though. Im starting to come out of my shell a little bit lol. Just think positive thoughts my friend, you will be fine..
sometimes i feel like that... well, more like, in the past. the good old days, haha *satirical laugh*
Bro, I was there a long while. Just moved to a new school last year, made some awesome new friends. I focused on making friends for a bit, and naturally I am getting female attention from the groups my friends hang around with. It feels good to know the lowest low and know when you are comin up to a peak.
Im not that alone, people all around me. But they are family and friends. I guess they are not enough. I feel empty. Nobody near me, who understands or is really interested of me, sexually or otherwise. Don't know how long I still have to wait for something to happen. It's been 5 years so far.
Yeah that's how I felt for many many years. Fortunately for me I just met a girl who I really like, I like her so much i think I might tell her I love her, just because deep down inside I know I do. But give it time, you'll find the one. Try going jogging at night, it will help boost yourself esteem, as well as get you in great shape.
Don't just wait for something to come your way. Go out and find what you want, no more waiting...that's what I suppose I should be doing right about now...so, peace!
First of all, you need family, relationship and friends. Even then loneliness may be there, Isn't it a fact of life? Some feel it more, some less. Then you need community and good friends. As for the community and common, shared life, there's a lack of it. It used to be there in old cultures, e.g. in Asia. Flower children used to search for it, in their open community and in the East. Now, this community is mostly lacking as hippies are few and lacking common life. In the East, it's getting lost to globalization, material progress and career, too. The seekers and searchers are needed more than ever. A community and real friends are needed to enrich soul & life in a world even more material than the 60s. Soul & love, nethippie (also on myspace)
i know how you feel man..just know that you're not alone if that helps at all..you'll find someone soon enough quote from a movie: "there's a girl out there for everyone...sometimes there's two...i call that the jackpot" heh =p
I can be around family and friends and still feel very alone. I hate it and I can't figure out what to do about it.
I feel alone but at peace with myself. I became distanced with everyone around me-too much craziness about colleges and moving out that I just blocked everyone i know and in site. its an amazing feeling
I moved to Nova Scotia a few months ago... I left behind the best friends I have ever made when I left Newfoundland. It's been nine months, and I still haven't made any friends, or connected with anyone here. I'm starting to lose faith in my generation. All that they seem to talk about is money, cars, jobs, girlfriends/boyfriends, sports, jock parties, etc. And I can't relate to any of those things... I wish that people would stop judging me because of the way that I look, and I hope that when school starts up again, I'll meet some good people, who are willing to put life on hold for a minute, smoke a joint, and watch the clouds roll by.
I know what you mean, sort of. About making peace with yourself I mean. I have more time to discover who I am, and what I want out of life without all of the insignificant nonsense that too many people obsess over. Life is all about the experience, and I want a good one.
I've had depression for about 4 years now and I've been suicidal twice in these 4 years. Yes I can admit it and I fucking hate it. I feel alone every waking minute of my life. Don't think I haven't been trying either, it's because of trying that I feel so alone. I'm sick of trying.
My view and feeling is similar, though I'm from a different area and generation. I'm bored and it makes me feel empty to hear others talk of career, money, making useful connections rather than friends, sport, wheather, cars and so on. That's one of the reasons why I feel the need of a community of people looking for more important values in life. For instance, some scene of flower-power miinded free thinkers ... As we are few today, we can network on the internet. Hope you meet great people and wish me the same. nethippie
