Loneliness

Law8667 SG

I used to feel this way. You can be lonely in a crowd and even when you are surrounded by friends and family members. It is not a matter of how many people are with or around you, but more a question of how many of those people you can truly connect with. What's the use of having many "friends" but none whom you can truly connect with for a fulfilling relationship.

It could also be a case of emptiness and unfulillment within us. If we are in that state, friends and external factors would not help much. Then it is time to take stock of our lives and find purpose and fulfillment : )

Ya, happens when you can't open up to people around you.

Just wait patiently for the right friend/partner to come along.

Meanwhile, expand your social circle and get to know more people who share the same mindsets/values/principles/interests/ (whatever thing that you find fundamental to you as a person).

whats wrong with being lonely or solitude.

you can enjoy peace all by yourself, be at peace with yourself.

you are born lonely into this world and you will depart alone as well.

Well said.

For me, I love to be alone.

But sometimes, I love to mix with the crowd.

Majority of the time, I am lone ranger...I dont know why.

I love to read story books, that is why I am a loner too. Most of the time. But then if I am in the crowd, I laugh and joke around.

After that , I still prefer to be alone, with my books, and drinks and .....just to be alone.

My inner world is a sharp contrast with how the world sees me.

Loner at heart though crowded with friends.

I enjoy non-fictional books. Books that are uplifting, motivating & inspiring.

ya, me too, i love to watch and read about uplifting stuff...especially my fronts.

I tried to be alone, but somehow, many peoples want to see me..haiz, so i need to think on how to solve a problem, i go to toilet, if not, cannot concentrate. Alone is alone, but dun end up dying alone in your house for days ya

I have been suffering from lonliness for almost 1 year too..and yes, I have plenty of friends around me. But I can't open up to them. I guess it was the special someone that I wanted to open up to rather than anyone else. But after awhile, I just chose to accept life at it is. No point being so uptight about my own emotions.

Maybe you need to open up to more trustable people.You never know you can find true friendships in them...and feel less lonely.

Fcukpap SG

trustworthy people are rare nowadays....most important is how you reference yourself to the surroundings and people

frames of reference....that is....the relativity of loneliness

Valencia-Ann SG

Trustable people can also be like your own sisters and brothers? A close aunt? There must be someone who is good with people around, whom you can connect with. Just think hard who are these people.

Aloneness is bliss - one is at ease with what one is being and what one does and though one may not be able to articulate it as such, it is ''nice'' feeling. A sign of healthy love for oneself and yet being porous to oneself. The approval is a bonus for such an individual. Love is out of love.

Loneliness is misery - one is at unease with what one is being, and what one does. One feels alienated, one feels neglected. One wants to be accepted, one wants to validated and yet the fear of being rejected, labelled holds one back. One awaits approval, one is dependent on other's being happy with one is beofre one feels ok. One is a persona, one has a personality.

A sign of lack of love of oneself and even when it is love it is out of fear(s)

You? Kidding? You seem like a very chatty, sociable guy in SGforum. Can't be that lonely.

Undestandable.I believe many more are also more expressive online than in real-life.

Demon Bane SG

I sometimes find myself feeling lonely even hanging out among good frens....dunno why leh...

Fugazzi SG

Muse over this - misery loves company. If three or ... lonely people come together beyond the facade of doing things or ... each and everyone is a beggar within and all waiting to be fulfilled. It happens but it a placebo and one feels good for a while but then again it has to be repeated always cos it validates one's existence.
