If anyone feels the same, please feel free to chat with me. I haven't many friends and all I want is someone to relate to.

I have to get myself off to bed now, so I can't really stick around to chat -- but I just now saw your post and something about it touched me. So I just wanted to say Hi, you're not alone, and even though I don't know you, I send you a cyberspace hug. :sunny:

Hang in there. : )

It means a lot that you all took time to relate. It's mic5e knowing that I'm not alone on this.

I also feel the tight grip of loneliness. I don't have friends that I do things with, my main partners in activities are my family members, which is just not the same. Being in college, I thought that might change, but it just isn't going quickly. Seeing couples around campus makes my blood run cold, and I both resent and envy their luck in finding someone.

While it may seem hopeless and unending, the loneliness may yet subside. Now, that sounds like little comfort, I know, but to some extent - if we don't believe it, hope may die. I wish everyone the best and hope we all find something that replaces that lonely feeling.

I'll also extend the same offer CJH123 did, if anyone needs some words of encouragement, or a buddy in dark places - I know them too well.

Hey I'd just like to say thanks for the lil mention thier and that what you wrote was almost totally how I feel to at the current time. I would love to have some more people in my life especially so, somebody to have a close relationship with. When I see other people together especially couples I feel upset and wish could have what they have to, however sadley sitting here won't do anything to find a relationship even I know that so I just gotta try my best and get out thier a lil more. I just thought I'd say that just to make you feel that you are not alone in your feelings.

There are many people here and beyond who feel the same way, so you are not actually alone, it just feels that way. I'm very happy for you that you've come to this place and reached out, it is a great step forward, even if you do not meet anyone here. It's about being willing to put yourself out there and that you are. You are going to make many friends if you keep it up.

Thank you! That's all every kind of you to say, it's gonna be a long path but I really want to do this and the sametime I am still really scared, but hopefully things will figure out.
