neruda deceiver: So Lonely - Sexuality and Relationships

Anonymous #1

I'm so lonely.

I don't know what to do.

I feel like wandering the empty streets for hours, days, weeks, years.

I have no grounding, no path, no joy, nor happiness.

Don't have a clue as to why I'm here or why I'm still breathing.

Don't see much of a purpose to anything.

I've given up hope.

I'm going to just try and find joy in who I am and the experience of lonliness.

What should I do?? Drown trying to swim across the ocean?? Bite off my arm? Leave everything behind?

do something.

for instance, what makes you happy?

I've gotten too much advice from people who aren't me.

I think I'm just gonna smoke pot with people and see what happens.

I was walking through the rain for 4 miles last night and ran into a streetkid.? I thought she was attractive, she was walking along with a couple meth-head looking charachters.? She said she just quit heroin, was pregnant, and about to abort the baby.? I kept walking.

I don't know what the fuck to do at this point.

I don't even like smoking pot socially....? I think I'm more into smoking a joint before bed or to overcome social anxiety.

I'm lonely..

Ok... so I should do something...

Exercise?? Talk to people?? I dunno...

Sounds like you need the time typo uuwork n yourself. Confidence Is the singlets most attractive quality in a mate, and it seems from your post that you? are lacking in that department. Work on yourself for a bit, meet some new folks, but I wouldn't be trying to find a relationship for awhile.

Feel ya, OP. I'm in a city for work where I know nobody and unless this one girl from work invites me out (and I don't even think she's likes me anymore as she stopped reaching out to me), I'm stuck here in this lonely ass apartment. All do is work.

I have zero life right now...this is the lowest, loneliest point I've been at in my life. Jus' sayin'. You aren't alone.

Fucking hate my life right now.

You can either
A. Keep moping
or
B. DO ANYTHING ELSE.

It's not the world at fault, it's your pessimistic attitude. The world is full of opportunities for happiness, satisfaction, and adventure. Just sit down at starbucks and say hi to someone if you're lonely. It's not complicated or hard. Read a book, go for a run, there has to be something that makes you happy, just go out and do it.?

What expectations for life do you have that aren't being fulfilled?

True that, bro. I honestly sit around for what seems like hours upon hours just feeling sorry for myself, and then I have to fucking slap myself and tell me to man the fuck up.

It's fucking pathetic.

Pretty much dude. There is no secret. You just have to get the fuck up and do something, and find some part of it that you enjoy. Shit is gonna suck some times. Big deal, keep moving to the good stuff.

I meant it in a mocking fashion, since every time I see someone say "I'm so lonely" I think of that song.?

I just moved to a new city though and know a solid 1-2 folks and thats it, so I gotcha.? sucks but whatever.? go drink and be awesome at bars and make more friends.

i've had plenty of sex since my divorce in '10, but i've yet to find a g/f. almost three years. i'm pretty lonely. it's not like i'm not trying to make it happen; i just can't seem to come across the right fit. it doesn't help that i live in one of the least imaginative parts of the country.
