The worst thing a person can be, is lonely. Being alone in a crowd or marriage feels the worst. To be alive and breathing and having no one there who cares is devestating to ones soul. I have lived in a lonely marriage for over twenty years and after I left, I found myself being alone yet not lonely. I am making my way back after the years I wasted and suddenly, through friends and family and finding someone who really cares, I know now, I will never be lonely again. Alone, maybe, but never lonely!

I think that its natural to feel lonely at times, even though we are admist people, freinds, raltives or even near and dear ones. Each person to their own reasons, i for one feel like that at times, reasons can be many. Either the are concerned with some problems that we are thinking about you, regarding the home or the work places, or its kids and family or spouse or anythign else. When we dont have people to share our problmes with or people whom we do want to share things with are too busy or there is no way we can communicate with anyone, then we tend to get lonely. And at times there are people whom we can talk to , but we dont feel like talking to anyone, but need that space and time alone, to think and set our minds apart from other things , in order to sort out our minds or to decide upon issues, and we prefer doing that when we are alone. At times we need to just sit and think, and be alone too, as it makes us go deep into ur consiousness and see and talk to ourselevs, which is important too. And once we are out of that phase of wanting or being loney we tend to share our thoughts and ideas with people around us and discuss the same thoughts we had earlier to decide if they are alright or what they were about.

yes. sometimes, i think it is called depression? but i do, whenever i am stressed soooooo much, i even end up having a fight with my boyfriend or my mom. it hard when you pretend that you're ok even though you feel empty inside.

yea, it happens to me quite often, like everyday. i do have a bunch of friends, i live with two room mates and i get online 24/7, but rarely spending times for chats. i love living alone but not lonely. it's a feeling of losing something in life. i wish i have someone to talk with, to sharing laugh and tears, dreams and hopes, life and thoughts, and keeping each other secrets. i miss someone that i can call as a friend, but to build trust is took forever.

yes, sometimes i feel very lonely, although i have friends aroud me,but i can't tell them anything about me.frankly, i prefer to talk about something with my online friends and not my real friends. recently, i have a trouble. i quit my job, and i earn too little from mylot. yesterday, the landowner come to my house to receive money. then i have to withdraw it from my account. frankly, i save it in a regular period, if i withdraw it now, then i have no high interest.

There are times I do feel lonely amongst a house full of people. I am a single mother and I love it, but not having adult company to speak with is lonesome at times. I think it may be easier if I had a job outside the home but for now my children are my life. Even when my husband was living here there were times I found myself still lonely. He was usually preoccupied with other things that didn't involve me such as the internet and his circle of friends. All in all I guess the joy of motherhood will always outweigh the feeling of lonliness that I get at times, and I wouldn't trade that for all the company in the world.
