I am even having trouble putting my finger on it. I don't have a high social need, but lately I have felt really disconnected from everyone I know. I feel very listless, I feel very distant, I feel very cold. I feel that I can't open up because everyone around me has problems of all kinds. It's also discouraging to open up, because when I try, my feelings actually get ignored. I don't think anyone is purposely doing that, but it always turns back to their problems, their ideas, their life....in a conversation. It's fine. It's been this way because of who I am. I am one of those. The counselor friend or something. I listen, and I like listening. But, loneliness grows the more and more I think about how I have so much in my head that not a single soul has heard. The loneliness I feel, isn't that uncomfortable, but it's there. I've spent so long figuring out myself and my problems on my own, not even worrying my family over it, that I have grown accustomed to not opening up. Because in my head, it makes no sense to talk about something I know I will just wind up overcoming alone. Well, shoot. I feel like being alone like this isn't so bad, but also it does feel off somedays, and now I'm confusing myself. :/ huh

Am i allowed to be lonely?
I have a supportive family that loves me and I have a few really good friends who love me... Is it really okay for me to feel alone still?...
Hi. Yeah I sort of relate to you. I'm the type to listen to others as well. Sometimes I think that's a good think because it makes me a good person, but sometimes it can be hard because there's no one to listen to how we feel, yk? Sometimes it would be nice if someone could just ask how we're doing. Loneliness is hard. Being lonely is nice sometimes but the feeling just makes us feel like we're the only individuals in existence. It's confusing and hard to handle. I understand how you feel, my friends aren't the type to really ask me how I'm doing heh. So sometimes I just wish someone could be with me. They wouldn't even have to talk! The feeling of not being alone is good enough. Is that how you feel? Sometimes when I think about being lonely and how I feel, it gets very confusing for me and it just leads to more thoughts. Sometimes thinking is something we have to take a break from. Look around you. Are you happy? You can deal with the challenges heading your way. Even if you got no motivation, you can get it back. Dealing with our problems is hard because sometimes we can't handle them by ourselves, so we ask to vent to other people. I agree, being lonely isn't too bad, but sometimes it just hits me that I'm actually alone, yk? Currently I'm trying to be happy with being alone. It's hard at times, but I can focus on being the better person I want to be. If you can try the same and try to build a good mindset for yourself, you'll feel a bit better! I hope some of my words helped, if not, I apologize. I just understand how you feel and I want you to know you're not alone, as I feel the same.
