Is everyone on this forum so lonely that this thread hasn't gotten buried yet?

Ever since college started, I became a little more socially awkward. I think it's due to me having less friends, and it's just harder to make friends at a uni for some reason.

Kinda, but mostly only romantically.

I have a small group of friends who I get along with very well. I'd much rather good friends than a lot of friends.

I've got a fantastic family.
I've got some great friends, but only in school really.
The only thing missing is a girl, which I really want...

i am very lonely my life is ver ylonely
even the daytime is like nighttime for me
when i cry the tears hit the ground and sprout into a sad flower which then wilts and dies
i have long hair because what's the point of cutting it anyways. its not like long hair will make me happy.
. i am empty all the time like a glass of half full water
everything is black like it was colored in with a black crayon
by a kid
with cancer
who is dead
. i named myself forlornly because i am sad so very very sad
save me jesuis i ned u

Yea, I'm so lonely that if someone were in my shoes, they would consider committing suicide. But, I'm strong and won't go that path.

i dont really feel lonely but i do tend to feel lonely when i am by myself. i then remember the things i messed up with and that makes me sad.

not really, actually. i dont have a ton of friends but i am loved and cared for

I have a lot of friends and at least triple the amount of acquaintances, everybody tries to get social with me (By going 'hey how's it going?' and never following up), but I never fit in anywhere.

I don't know most of the things that are talked about in my group of friends, and whenever I do happen to speak about a topic that I'm familiar with it's just lost on them and ignored. I'm not sure if it's intentional on their part or they can't hear me (Even though I speak when nobody else is), but it's really made me feel like I don't belong.

Yeah I do. Some days I can deal with it and some days it's kind of unbearable.
You're with family and friends and you're having a great time,
But it feels like you're kind of missing that one special person who just sorts of gets you, ya' know?
That special someone that won't necessarily complete you, but complements you, makes you feel your best&vice versa.
I like company but I really want that somebody to cuddle with.

My best friend and I are going through that right now.
She went to college and doesn't know anyone, and I stopped playing games and watching the teli 24/7. In my case, I now have a lot of free time and no one to spend it with. Most of my friends always want to stay inside and play games, but I actually want to go outside and do things for once.
I'm going to apply at three different places so that hopefully a job will burn up that time I'd otherwise be spending alone in my room and start working out more, but I really hope I can find someone besides her to hang outside with.

sometimes sometimes

Yes I guess so.

I would like to consider myself lonely for the most part while in college. It was a different story back home because I have 5 great friends that are like family to me and we all hang out together in a group. My family is also great I love them to pieces. It's just that in college I can't talk to them too often and making more friends here is difficult to me, I just haven't branched out yet. I have just 2 decent friends but I don't hang with them that often because they have their own friend groups that don't appeal to me( I'm not picky I give chances) but for the most part I'm very socially selective and I can't seem to make really good friends just acquaintes that I'll talk in class with. I hope I find someone whether it be a best friend and/or girlfriend to give their undivided attention to me lol. If anyone just wants to talk and what not don't hesitate to message me haha. I feel most of us are in the same boat or at least similar

@mitarumetaro My situation is similar to yours, only that its my younger brother and his friends who are all 2 years younger than me. I have the option of getting closer with them but it doesn't feel legit because I can never erase the fact that my brother made the initial bonds with them. I sometimes feel jealous because I wasn't able to make or keep any close relationships with anyone in high school.

@pinoymystic Anyway I do feel lonely but mainly because atm I don't got no close group of friends to turn to. At this point just having real friends would be good; having a gf would be better. My family is good to me but its not fulfilling at all.

Also I think I was kinda hindered in my younger school days because I had a health problem that went left unchecked; it pretty much effected my grades, social life, development.

I am lonely and it eats away at my soul. I need close friends

Yeah, I have a great connection of friends but the moment I'm not with them anymore and I'm at home, I feel down. Pretty silly but yeah, I like being with my friends.

Sometimes, yeah. But not always.

Sometimes I feel pretty jealous of the like big social group or w/e my older sibling has. People always look at other people and think "well I'd be happy if I had what they had", or whatever.

actually this is making me sad now lol

i do too sometimes when im on social media and I see people having such a fun time. dont get me wrong, I have great friends, an amazing boyfriend and the best family ever but still I dont go out like other people on a friday night to the football game. I dont even go out often maybe once a week and on saturday to work and practice driving

Yes, all the time since a few years ago.

I've got family and friends, but I don't feel close or connected to any of them. I had a girlfriend who I was obviously close with, and while we lasted, I didn't feel alone. But, we broke up a long time ago and so the "alone" feeling returned.

Anyone wanna connect and be not-lonely? hmu please. im canadian and super ultra polite and nice and funny and witty. i s2g... i promise. (edit: I should clarify that i mean connect as friends. im not a creeper i swear...)

But yeah, in all seriousness I feel lonely.

Yeah I'm lonely sometimes.
When someone leaves for a while, I'm like a dog that waits and thinks about them for a certain time period or whenever someone brings it up.

at home I'm lonely yeah, I've got too much homework s**t

Lot's have good and fake friends and a huge fam.
But in the end, we're all lookin for that one special soulmate..

[quote=OnlineMusic]Right now yeah but it's more of a rut. I don't talk much or have a close relationship with my family. I have acquaintences I speak to but few friends I'm close to. I'm not working and school hasn't started; I'm just at home or hanging out with friends, I come home and feel like empty.[/quote]

Holy crap, your life is like mine. Except I fight more with my family and not go out with friends that often.

@TrueAtheist: One thing you don't know is that I edit every single of my posts.

Thanks for watching my posts. That's the whole point of me posting on here.

Edit count for this post: 3

[quote=pinoymystic]dang man, im sorry to hear that. hope things will definitely work out in the long run for you.[/quote]

me too =/ hope you feel better too. if you're ever feeling super lonely just hit me up we can chat.

[quote=Billionz]Yeah. I'm in for a relationship right now. I just want to spend time with someone who is pretty and nice and is of the opposite sex. And lots of hugging.

Other than that, I don't feel lonely when I eat out with friends. But that's temporary. I don't get to eat out all the time.

I love my little sister. She doesn't make me feel lonely! We watch cartoons together! [/quote]

I saw you edit your post, I'm watching you.

Yeah. I'm in for a relationship right now. I just want to spend time with someone who is pretty and nice and is of the opposite sex. And lots of hugging.

I think everybody experiences loneliness to one degree or another.

I can get lonely but I'm good at getting rid of my loneliness with the help of the female species.

Mhm, I eat lunch alone and I'm not that close to my peers, only enough to talk during class

[quote=Wordolio]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_b8HRqoyGvU 0:48 explains me. but yeah i really do. especially since leaving home a year ago. Depression gets worse too when you live alone. My parents want nothing to do with me anymore after all the trouble i caused my family in highschool and the year after dropping out. I don't really blame them, i just wish i could get a re-do on so many things. maybe things would be better if i could.[/quote]

Sometimes yeah.
