Lonely and Just want to talk with virtual friends here
Due to 'life' I never had the opportunity to make friends. I hardly ever went out, am single, and feel desperately lonely. I can take care of myself and always have but have learned my caring skills weren't particularly good. They kept me alive but I have not lived.
No holidays, trips, bar, no beach or forest, nothing. And no friends to go out with or to simply have a chat.
I still work and I think my clients would be perplexed. They know me as a sunny and mischievous teacher who pulls their legs so they learn more, and trick them into doing things wrong to help understand it all even better. Little do they know. I am very alone and lonely. Being alone is not that big of a biggie: I know how to do that. But the loneliness is hollowing me out.
I wondered about making friends. I never had friends, I feel very awkward about friendship. I miss the person I am with clients in my daily life. I really would like someone to chat with. It would be so nice to even fall in love. To feel I am being loved. I never had that. It's so strange to realise so many are loved; is it normal to be loved, to find someone who loves you? Or is it the golden shine of being lucky and blessed enough to find this?
It would do me a lot of good to find people to chat with. Video for instance would be nice to get to know people. To chat, have a virtual cup of tea, or a real one of course! And to not be too ashamed of myself to hide behind the smiles and fun but to open up and maybe one day even be accepted.

Hi Sandy, I know how that feels. My husband and I moved from Ca. To La. when he retired and we had not been here but about a year and he started having health probs. He spent a few years in nursing home before he died. We didn't really have much time to form friendships because it was Dr and hospital visits taking up most of my time. So after he died I found myself alone. It isn't easy at times but I have adjusted and find I'm feeling very comfortable in my life now. I have a little dog and a couple of cats for company and my neighbor is also a widow so we are friends. We call and check on each other daily and sometimes go shopping together but she is my only friend. I have my children but they are still in Ca. So I can't depend on them if I need help. So I am going to just make the most of everyday and "wing it" I guess. But I also felt the way you are feeling at one time so I know what you're talking about about. Good luck and I hope you have better days coming.

I'm here for you!! I hope you're still out there! I am very lonely too and don't have any friends. Have been stuck inside for too long. My adult children seem distant and I desperately miss when we all lived under the same roof. Anyone out there looking to make a friend?
