Feeling lonely in a crowd

[BUBBLES]

Do you guys feel lonely - even particularly lonely - in a crowd?
Because that is how I have been feeling lately. I go to work and come home. I have people around me all the time yet I am feeling lonely for some reason. I am surrounded by people of a similar age and with lots in common but I nevertheless feel wretchedly isolated and awkward. This is made worse by the sight of others who seem perfectly at ease or those happy couples who walk hand in hand in the park or on the beach.


What is going on with me? Am I going through a stage in my life?


Can this be cured?

Maybe thats just it, you ARE lonely. Single? Maybe its time to add some romance into your life. I feel lonely, too, sometimes since I live in a town over a hundred miles away from my family and friends I grew up with.

 

[chefbone]

Do you need to get laid? Wait....Let me re-word that.......
Has it been a while since you got laid? If so, maybe you should give it a shot!

 

[theoak01]

ya im feeling a bit lonely myself lately,it fricken sucks

 

[megamania500]

Maybe its the change of seasons, less sunlight, leaves dying off, everything turns brown and bleak looking. For me, fall always seems kinda...depressing.

 

[GoldenDelicious]

this is a difficult thing to explain, but ive felt precisely how you feel now...i understood that i was surrounded by people, yet alone, and what changed for me wasnt the understanding that i was alone - for i still truly believe that i am...that we all are, for that matter - but rather, what changed was the way i felt about being alone - i got comfy in my lonely little world, and reached out into the world outside only when i wanted to, to draw something into mine - a little company, a chat, a volley of ideas, a tender touch, or whatever...i dont feel any less alone, but somehow...managed to feel that my little world wasnt as far away from the other worlds in the universe we float in...and took comfort in that.

oh, and about that whole "i see other happy couples etc etc" thing...in my experience, ive noticed that those we envy are in precisely the same predicament...the difference is usually awareness of the fact. chances are that you envy phantoms

i knew that wasnt going to come out right. dammit. oh well nice av now send me the unblurry pic. NOW.

I feel like that often but I attribute part of it to the fact that I isolate myself lately. I have so much going on in my own mind I find myself too distracted to be around other people. There are a couple of exceptions.

Man of the Earth, you have soiled yourself foul.
With lips of infected scarlet, you will indulge yourself.
So digest your consequences.
The serpents venom runs inside of you.
Your lust (and) desires will blind your senses.
Whirlwinds of disaster for you.
For you.

Remove yourself and take your breath away.
Rebuild yourself before you fall away.
And I will lift you from the bottom and my hope won't fade away.
I will scrape you up so you can survive the day.
Remove yourself.

Touch what you can't have and have what you can't touch for now.
My friend, all of this will turn to ash.
Who is your god? Or is it a devi?
Igniting your catastrophe.
You spine won't bend spiritual anatomy.

Remove yourself and take your breath away.
Rebuild yourself before you fall away.
And I will lift you from the bottom and my hope won't fade away.
I will scrape you up so you can survive the day.
Remove yourself.

Rebuild who you areand stay awake.
Remove all your scars. Will you stay awake.

But you won't remove yourself.

Remove yourself and take your breath away.
Rebuild yourself before you fall away.
And I will lift you from the bottom and my hope won't fade away.
I will scrape you up so you can survive the day.
Remove yourself.

Know what you're saying (?) and think you'd be surprised by how many people feel the same way in many situations. See a lot of Ab Fab behaviour which passes without comment. For me it's all a game, have to pretend and hide those thoughts/feelings when in company because a) it's seen as a weakness by others, b) you should never let everyone know what you're thinking, and c) it's business. The art of small talk and a practised smile is a saviour.

It's perfectly normal to go through period of detachment - take that time to look into yourself - how you relate to you and others and why/how.

It's actually a really wonderful time to grow if you choose not to face it fearfully.

No fungus but they are called dermoid cysts, tumors of the ovaries that grow teeth and hair lolol. No shit, one half of an egg goes haywire and thinks it can grow a baby, leaving well, its not a pretty site. So unless you come from a long lineage of buttbabies and have ovaries in your anus, I doubt itd have teeth.

Immigration aint got nothing on me, Im an indemand skilled profession, no way no how they get rid of me, your educational system cant compete with the US being a tenth the size, you just import and pay big bux to do so, so Ill have enough cash to send you a bus ticket

you know too much about things that can grow on your arse

another black mark for immigration

so, mr. bill...youre here to steal our jobs, insult our good looking young men, steal our wimmin, and bring an intimate knowledge of arse-nasties that can only be obtained via a symbiotic relationship with them? *VISA DENIED*

anyway, out "educational" system can compete just fine, since not only is it almost totally government funded...they also teach us that it is an education system, not an educational system

(dont you hate it when you try to act smart, then trip up on somethign like that )

ahem. never happened to me.

mofo. ill fix you. you could at least send a plane ticket

 

[riverrock]

I always feel lonely when I'm at a party where I'm asked to go, but if I wasn't it wouldn't make a whole lot of difference to them anyhow. Always felt like that at work get-togethers before. Was very lonely in my teens at teen discos. I don't think it was until I "found my way2 again in my early 20's that I emerged from my shell

hot incredible sex with ffos can cure your problem

 

[bigmann245]

General companionship, even being surrounded by peers isn't the same as having an intimate connection with someone. Sounds like that's what you're after.
You'll find someone to fill that void of loneliness. *cough* BrothaBill

Being lonely is only a problem when you don't have inner security or happiness in yourself -- so you seek the company of others to give that to you.

As for company. Just hang out in social areas, and be at ease with yourself and make yourself as warm and friendly as possible. Be a good listener, be friendly, and you'll make similar friends as a result. If you're just insecure about talking to people, etc -- well don't be. They're all just humans, and they're all naked underneath.

"The Castle" Father voice: "youre dreaming"

as much as i like the materials those sorts of houses are made of, theyre not terribly functional to live in, imo. theyre kind of...rabbit warrenish. and very square.

ever thought of building?

quite foolish, asking me to come and stay with you and jazza. i mean, my impeccable guest ettiquette will keep me from hitting on her, but...hell of a risk, bb. how could you know i was so well raised?

lol, just for fun, she wants to live in Hunter's Hill, where I can live depends on if I take a hospital job where Im oncall within a half hour of the hospital or more clinic work. Where I can live is dictated by work. But I let her make those decisions, I can live anywhere but I do like the interiour, more classic and upscale. Functionality, how functional can a house be. Ill of course hook it up to make all the lights and electronics voice commanded like star trek first off

Its not that I dont trust you, just I trust her, she'd rip your balls off, she has mine in a jar right now. Thats a risk you'd be taking not me lol

omg before i read the last sentence, i was thinking...man...jazza has this guy under the thumb like a mofo! wow! ...and then you admitted that your balls are floating in formaldehyde in her undies drawer

anyway, i wouldnt do such a thing to a host. its very bad manners. besides, these balls were made for danglin'

what i was talking about with functionality is the flow inside the house - those victorian places are a big bunch of rooms with one door in, and one door out of each bloody room (hence...a rabbit warren)

i lived in one for a while, when i was housemates with a relative of mine (a doctor who insisted we live somewhere 'classy'. anyway, cut to me and my cousin standing in front of THE SHITTIEST house in a really classy area ) and while it was nice having formal dining rooms etc etc.....i vastly prefer plush, open living. you know, the types of houses made for couples who dont really plan on having kids, but who have lots of money and like having people over

then again, thats just me. you guys are going to be working so damn hard to pay that thing off youll never be home anyway

Well, I like that style of housing, my older sister had that type of house and built another. I like the Victorian room with the grand piano and yassy and I are going to have a couple of kids, weve already talked about it. So an elegant design mixed with my technological upgrades.

I want my kids cultured and in a classic setting. Busts of philosophers and musicians and poets. Bookcases full of literature featuring the greatest minds this human experience can offer. Neat and beautiful.

I want my kids to learn from the best and see the best and have the greatest minds teaching them. I may not become world leader, but my son or daughter will.

It all starts with teaching them classical piano on a boesendorfer piano in a room designed to teach them them art

Itll be far smaller than the science room I have planned, growing up with models of the solar system and a periodic table in their crib
