Do you ever feel like there's no one to talk too?

That is an interesting question! Some of us are blessed with having many friends and many people we can talk to. Nevertheless, we cannot just say anything to everyone. Some might misunderstand and some might misuse information we have shared. So we can talk but we still have to be careful.

yes its about learning to cope up with yourself..when your friends are away learn to deal with it because not all of the times they are there for you..they also have lives..

I used to have that feeling. This is because I do not want to bother my friends as that feeling mostly come out when I am unable to sleep and I feel the urge to talk to someone. How did I overcome it? Go online and try to redirect my thoughts. Often, such a dilema happen when it is not convenient to speak to anyone (even the most trustable around me) about it and is best left confidential. I do mediation now.

Talking is an art ... You have to be an artist ... Surely everyone can speak. But not everyone does it properly, you must, but ... Not everyone should be talking ... You need to know when talking to someone, that person is not bored. There are some people with whom you could talk for hours and still not get bored of you `. I mean those people who can talk about anything, open, and not those who tell jokes all the while. Is this an art, but it's not about the jokes ... It is very important to know when to talk and when to shut up ...

hello, I never felt that before I am always have a time to myself and if nobody wants to listen to me my boyfriend is always there to help me. And offer me some help. Their are times that my friends are so busy in their studies or I am too ashamed to say my problem to my family that is why I just keep it myself. Whenever I will feel that matter I used to face my laptop and by that I can forget my problems.

Sometimes it does feel like you are alone, though you have everyone you need around you. You would enter into a state of surliness / morose, probably its the time God wants you to communicate with him.

Often! I felt that i have no one to talk to, and no one to listen to me. I believe we all in through this anyway feeling alone and lonely, we all go through this even if we know we have someone with us.

yes it happen sometime though i have plenty friends and have even good relations with my parents as well. There are time i go to long walk alone and talk to myself because all other are busy or i just dont have desire to share some of my thoughts to those people even they are pretty close to me.Talking with my pets works in such a cases.They dont judge you or run away from you because you are too much negative.

This is more a rule than an exception these days. I too have a big family and a circle of friends but I too experience the same fate. This is because we no longer depend on each other for the kind of interaction which was inevitable in the good old days. There is enough on our plate that keeps us merrily on our toes without having people around us.

Well, that is how life is in the 21st century.Everybody is so busy and yet not everybody is getting rich. In these hard times, people are all focused on how to earn a living and have an extra income,as everything nowadays are getting expensive than ever. It is good that we are here on mylot, cause somehow we feel like we are talking to somebody and we can express sometimes whatever it is thats bothering us or what is keeping us up on our toes. (^_^)

I know the feeling, everyone is so busy nowadays. People just don't have time to reach other any more unless they want something from you they just a bother talking to you, and now I know that sounds very cynical but sometimes it can be true. But then sometimes I've heard instances where I am so busy trying to get things done and people keep coming up to me trying to talk, and I feel really bad because I don't have time and then I end up having to pack an appointment with them. Or else I try to catch up with another time but then the moment is gone already, at that time they're the ones who are busy trying to get things done!

Hi Dominique25, yes like many have said the true art that is now lost is the art of listening and I miss it in a big way. Although there are so many friends, relatives and others around, I often find myselves all alone. Even though I try to talk to them, they are really not listening....the biggest culprit that comes between our communication is yes, a mobile phone! What really upsets me is that I am trying to talk about something very serious, something that really matters to me, and the person I am talking is either busy texting to someone which is probably a stupid joke or some forwarded chain message or is talking on the phone to someone about something very trivial. This discourages me so much that I have given up altogether talking about my serious issues with others!

sometimes, i do have the same feeling wherein i feel like i can't open up to anybody even though i have my family and friends.. whenever that happens,i just find a good place and either write or talk to God.. it really helps to have an outlet.. :)

Sometimes it just seems like what you say isnt important and nobody would want to hear or have any thought on it. I have wondered the same thing. Or how one can feel lonely in a house full of ppl? Sometimes as crazy as it is, we just need to talk to ourselves.

I think the lost art is really listening. Sometimes you have these conversations running in your head, with a friend, but when you get the chance to talk, somehow it does not happen the way you planned. Or sometimes they act uninterested. Someone willing to share your thoughts is a rare friend and to be cherished.

Being alone in midst of a lot of people is an experience. It when no one you can trust on or nobody wants to lend their ears due to hectic schedules. But it's okay because there is mylot :-) we can speak our inner thoughts, exchange ideas and at the same time having friends while enjoying the benefit of being member here. It's cool :-)

I have had those moments in my life where I feel like there's no one to talk to, even though I have those 3 friends that I know I can use their shoulders when I need something to lean on. But, sometimes those 3 friends can be busy and they could be really occupied with their activities or festivities. I don't want to add any negativity in their lives so I keep to myself, thinking about the stuff going through my mind and trying to find a way to cope with it.

I agree with you Dominique25, life has become extremely busy and one thinks before starting a topic whether or not anybody should be bothered since we think they must also be very busy. In this busy world believe it or not everybody has something or other going on in their lives and although there is always somebody ready to lend their ears to hear us but it becomes important to realise that whether or not to discuss our situation with anybody else or not.

I always feel that. My family is not only busy, I feel that they don't understand me. We have different thoughts, different ways to express ideas, different interests. I'm way too different from my mom or my sister, and I often feel that they're are not an option when I need to talk with somebody. I don't have many friends for this reason also. I'm young, and I have thoughts, feelings, ideas, interests very different from people of my age, and from every people around me. So, actually, I don't have anyone to talk. But I'm ok with that, I've learned to keep my emotions and thoughts with me.

Thats exactly what I'm feeling at the moment with just one difference. I'm really losing the contact to my friends. Everybody is going into different dircetions my best friend wants to study in another city (240miles away), I'm at work from 7am to 7pm and all my other friends seem to be busy all the time. I mean the only way to interact with them is via facebook and there its just like: "hey! whats up?" "fine, thanks!..we chat tomorrow I need to go offline." And the next day its the same. 4 Years ago I had a friend that was really special I mean I was able to talk to her everytime and about whatever I want. Whether I didn't feel good, about my problems and so on. Now I need to say: it was the best time in my life. If I could just turn back the time... Hopefully everything changes back sometime
