Do you ever feel alone?

When you're surrounded by other people. Even people you love, and love you. Do you still feel completely and utterly isolated from their affections? I have this persistent feeling; a missing depth to the bonds with those around me. I think I've built walls over the years that I never let down for anyone. I don't know, all I know is that I'm tired of feeling this way. It's really depressing never feeling like you are close to someone. 馃槥

Having one of those days where it's really getting me down.

@GeistInTheMachine Well, at least we can wallow together.

@Pseudonym Eh, wallowing is overrated.

What we have to do is come up with a plan.

Or something.

Hmm. I dunno.

@GeistInTheMachine You catching me off guard with this alien arse productivity stuff man.

Okay. I know I could start by being a better fucking human being. To be honest, I'm a really shit friend, and do myself no favours. Part of the problem is that I'm feeling trapped in my current relationship, and I really have nobody to talk to about it.

I'm sick of smiling and pretending I'm alright when I'm not. I never see my friends any more because every time I do, they know something is wrong straight away. And I just can't stand sitting there for hours while they interrogate me about my relationship and how my life is. I know they mean well, but it just makes me feel even worse.

I think I need a clean break. I just need to get away and clear my head. All I ever do at the moment is bloody work and I'm stressed to my fucking eyeballs. I feel like I can't live because my balls are clamped in the vice of commitment piled on top of a whacking great mortgage. For fuck's sake. There is just nothing I look forward to. Literally. I have no happiness I'm currently working towards. I'm just working to stay afloat.

I always feel that so I just isolate myself. I'd rather be alone than feel alone in a room full of people.

Yeah, but kinda got used to it, so it's no big deal.
