Ever feel THAT lonley?

I always have my friends, but sometimes I feel like they're passing me by ever so quickly while I stay behind. I'm not lonely, hell, sometimes I WANT to be alone. Isolating myself gives me peace sometimes, but I never wish to be that lonely.

I've never really felt lonely. Sometimes being around people is a good way to cure boredom when I have nothing to do by myself though.

I feel it from time to time...

I have some great friends though :)

I'm sure you do too, just look through some old pics on facebook.

I also feel it from time to time, I have some great friends though, but I moved countries so many times and on top of moving away from home, I also moved to a completely different country.

Although these days talking to people over this internet (skype/facebook/etc) is much easier.

I do too. Off topic, when you decide to go to school, get a job, or whatever... if you enjoy it, find something to anchor yourself to it. Any kind of anxiety disorder is triggered when you're facing something unfamiliar. All you can do is weather the storm until you find a sense of security in whatever it is you decide to do. From personal experience I can tell you, even if you're taking baby steps toward something, you'll get a lot farther than taking no steps at all.



Loneliness isn't a problem for me because I prefer being alone. I just don't like being around people. I have friends and I can socialize, but for as long as I can remember, I've always found people, in general, to be irritating.

My teenage years we're dark times but if was not for my discovery of anime I would not be here today and would be 6 feet under.

I don't get lonely, honestly. I LOVE to be with my friends, we're like family. The rest of the time I like to be alone, maybe on the computer or something.

I feel lonely a lot.

It sucks. But I just hope someday I won't be... not much I can do till then. ^^;

I would get the feeling of being alone after I moved off campus to my own apartment for academic reasons. However after making some new friends I am able to get enough socializing done at school to go home, get homework done, and enjoy the evening with not a second thought to being alone in my studio apartment.

I think at some point we all end up going through (a) phase/phases where you can feel a bit lonely, best remedy is just to talk with someone.

I am feeling this way right now and have been for a long time. The only people I can truly relate to in any way are people on FAKKU and anime charatcers(pathetic I know...._). Yet, even though I can relate to people on FAKKU, I still feel a longing for real face-to-face contact. I guess I'll probably always feel this way..

Nope.

I seem to have the rare ability of not letting small things bother me in the slightest.

I remain laid back almost all of the time, and it has led to a very peaceful and easygoing life.

Never been depressed, or unusually sad. Which I take as a blessing, by the way.

On the flip side, it has led to quite a few people thinking I'm just a dick. The lackadaisical attitude I have is the cause of this.

But for me, that is classified into the 'small things I don't let bother me.'

^ Wow, that is actually a good description of the way I am too.

You, my friend, are awesome. Kudos to you.

I wish I could be like that, but it seems genetics had different ideas in mind.

I used to feel that lonely...I still do sometimes...
It used to get to the point, that I actually attempted to commit suicide a few times. But after a try that didn't kill me, and a few others that I never went through with. I gave up on that idea. After a while, I met a bunch of people as well as having a revelation that got me out of the slump. Life seems great nowadays but i still get those feelings sometimes, but at least i have friends to help me now.

I've been down about this for the last year and a half.
When I finished the last year of secondary school, 90% of my friends left and I was stuck almost by myself.
I try to not get so down about it and I'm focusing on securing a good future.

I thought this thread was going to be about feeling so lonely and desperate that you try to suck your own dick.

Needless to say, I am incredibly disappointed.

Miserable 21st century

This is a great article related to this topic, I would recommend reading everything because this shit is true

I think the best way to deal with crippling loneliness is overwhelming hate.

And or an imaginary magical waifu who always talks to you and keeps you company.

I feel like this sometimes and it really sucks when you have a friend that you can talk to but your really shy to talk to her because you think your problem is pathetic and corny i admit my problem is corny that's why i always think of people who have more poorer conditions than me and i pull myself together because of that but sometimes when promblems in my family and the society comes in my mind i just feel want to kill myself don't get me wrong i totally hate the suicide thing but it just reeks in me but im really strong minded so that will never happen i promise myself that.
