I live alone and the days do get boring sometimes. Yes I have a boyfriend but he is terminally ill. Its very isolating being there for someone who is ill and i do get lonely.
I'm sorry your boyfriend is so ill, but you do need to take care of yourself. Maybe go out for a coffee with a friend... it's important that you don't isolate yourself and do nothing but care for a sick loved one.
I understand this completely when your a carer for someone it does get lonely as you don’t always want to talk about your worries and fears with your partner. The life also means you don’t have age much time for friends and family.Thats why it’s good to chat here as you can still be getting stuff done.

I don’t envy you one bit. And words cannot express how I feel for you. A lot of us have been there unfortunately Look over your own health though. Do you have any family who can help you? Or a good friend or two.
i am truly sorry, i know the pain of loneliness myself, i guess it comes down to you have to force yourself to get out and meet people as hard as that may be, i wish you luck and happiness and i am sorry about your partner.
I'm sorry. I feel lonely a lot too, even though I'm married. I find it hard to connect with people. I'm sure your situation is much harder because of your boyfriend's illness.
