Loneliness.

The older I get, the more it is starting to bite. I have always enjoyed being alone. Now it's different and difficult.

*Being alone is a good start - if you don't feel complete before dating, you never will. Being with yourself allows you to ground yourself and build a secure basis for a healthy relationship.
Dating from an "already complete" perspective is more enriching because it will allow you to be more confident and build a better trust bond with your partner = long lasting love (especially if they also did some self development before meeting you)
Brace yourself - your best relationship is maybe just around the corner! :)

Life is a cumulative set of judgments from the universe unto ourselves. The judgements get harsher and more definitive as we age...as life becomes more of a real finite project we've undertaken and less of a game...

Maybe more self compassion is in order too...😔

try to keep yourself busy , work , pets, sports , nights with friends , be positive no matter what happen , go outside at mornings to have some fresh air and sometime with the pure nature ,its always the best to fix your mood ,your life
the way you are thinking and your attitude..
trust me, you wont attract the good ones in your life until you find yourself and do everything you love and never quit your dreams even if its very simple and you might see it like nothing to achieve , if you do achieve it and live it , it will make a big difference into your life, believe me 😊🌷
the moment you drop off your fear and beat it,its the moment you start living happily 😻

Most people don’t understand what loneliness really is. But I do. There was a time in my life that I’d have welcomed the end if it had come for me.

@DoubleRings sounds like you are not so lonely anymore. Hope I'm right

Its a minefield here, there are people who will crucify you if you honestly say you are lonely. They don't have it in them to care.

It touches a raw nerve. They want YOU in THEIR place.
Happened to me an hour ago, she's blocked but there are WAY TOO MANY.

Be careful. Its not a warm and fuzzy world in here or out there.

If your SW age is real - 30/40s is the new 20/30s, (esp. thanks to inflation).
You still got time to meet marvelous people and enjoy life!

Is loneliness the problem or is it a lack of money? Failing health could also be robbing you of the joy of being alone.

Losing my dad has torn me apart and now wonder what really is the purpose.

Death of a friend, which your dad must have been to you, is a gaping chasm in your life. The impact is quite amazing because you never thought it could ever be that affecting. It brings into question the substantiality of your very own existence. Is this the "loneliness" you are talking about?
@sree251 That too but also, I feel like I am alone in this word. A purposeless life. Lacking drive to go for something. Clouded mind and emotions. It's just so many things and it's overwhelming

"Aloneness" is a fact. A truth even but we bury this with a sense of purpose: having a family, friends, career, a cause.

You have a choice: either stay with this loneliness or bury it with distractions.

You don't enjoy being by yourself anymore? How do you spend your moments alone?
