    @cereszal yep I really do think it’s more of a case of being an introvert. I realise that now about myself and in others. We all have the ability to make friends and accept other people but we ourselves are often misunderstood and so left alone because they can’t be “bothered” to give us time or patience in order to be who we are.
    Some people are pushers, and rush rush rush – in a show that they are “better” than others or “demanding” of everyone else’s attention.
    Whereas we are more suited to the calm, quiet life and take things at a steadier pace. We are more in touch with nature and are reflective people. Thoughts and feelings – we acknowledge them and try to deal with them best as we can. And that is why we are all here on TinyBuddha after all. To make more sense of the world, other people, to improve ourselves, to handle the stresses of life a bit better than we would do on our own.

    Everyone feels lonely and gets lonely once in a while. Alone and lonely are two very different things. If you can shift from being lonely to alone then you can take control of it and make use of the time better for yourself in order to meet your own needs, wants and desires in life. When you are left feeling lonely, it is very hard to get out of sometimes and at those times – you just have to let out that sadness and anger in positive ways by being active. But don’t push problems away or hide away from them.
    Emotions are the confusion of thoughts and feelings. Once you can clear your mind a bit then you will know how you truly feel and then make a better decision for yourself based on your own instincts and therefore take action to make better life choices for yourself.

    Sorry to hear that you are feeling this way. It seems you have everything that you “could want” on the outside. Good job, money.
    But the inside is what counts and what you crave for most is love and companionship. I think there is nothing wrong with you.
    You are probably just an introvert like I am. A deep thinker and with alot of emotional sensitivity. There are two types of people: the logical/practical type who try to use their “brain” and the other are dreamy/emotional who are about “feelings and heart”.

    Don’t worry, you will find someone to love and someone who loves you in return. But it all starts with loving yourself first, only you can make you happy.
    Your best friend and confidante in life will always be yourself – noone knows you better than you know yourself.
    We are all born into this world alone, we have to lead the path of our lives alone and we all die alone. You will meet people along the way – some will be lifelong friends others are just there for a little while. You’re lucky if you have 1 or 2 lifelong friends even – that’s the same for everyone.

    So don’t listen to what others say or think about you. I grew up the same way – always being misunderstood and having to stand up for myself, my views, my beliefs, my whole existance. It gets tiring. If you keep having to “prove your worth” with people who can’t even be bothered to get to know you are give you their time – why waste your time to get to know them and waste chances on them? It’s better to be alone than to be surrounded by people who make you feel worse and lonely. At least when you are alone you can truly be yourself without all the criticism. You can make friends from all around the world – you have already started by posting this on the thread. So there is hope, and there are people out there who feel the same and want to connect.
