I've been alone most of my life. It doesn't seem to bother me most days.

Only if you have the courage and perseverance to keep putting yourself out there and refuse to accept defeat. It’s not going to show up at your door, you have to go out and get it.

Sorry to hear that. I didn't have this problem for a long time but it's starting creeping on me now. I'm still not entirely sure my problem is loneliness and craving for love though. Sometimes it feels more like a fear of being an easy target as a lone woman. Maybe I rather crave the feeling of being protected, belonging somewhere and having someone I can trust and have my back covered in a sense.
A lonesome dove, a bird upon a branch looking out without another bird to hear you. Is the worst feeling not being lonely when you have people you are supposed to feel love with? I imagine there is another, when you have no one left and only words you express are left for no one to hear or see? 😔

I was the same until I married at 37. Marriage didn't end up filling those needs for me like I hoped it would though. Be sure you've really found the right person.

@Freetime thanks for those words
I feel lonely for other reasons but I understand what you mean. I quit searching? Asking? Let things happen on their own. Hope you feel better soon.

You are 35 with a full life ahead of you. Go out walking, into a cafe , or church. Meet people and you will have friends soon enough.

@BigT93 Thanks so much

Not having anyone to share the ups and downs with is hell. Like a message in a bottle tossed out to sea, drifting endlessly, wishing to be found

Yes you will I didn’t till I was 45 years old obese and disabled I though I’d die alone but there are people out there I promise

It’s an awful feeling. I guess you have to address how you can change it yourself, what can you do, where can you go to meet people and form a friendship and perhaps something more. The worst thing you can do, in my opinion, is let this feeling take over and get you down, it’s a vicious cycle that will continue, preventing you from making positive steps.

@DHggmu Thanks for the helpful tips

@PureHeart2087 If they help you then it’s worth it, it’s not easy, but nothing seems to be in todays world.

Like someone already said, you need to take a chance and put yourself out there. Not only that, you have to be openminded. The older people get, the more baggage’s we carry. If I knew finding love in my 30s was this hard, I would have taken up with a decent girl that liked me in my younger years. You might find someone, but don’t expect it to be a knight in shining armor coming to rescue his princess.

Learn to love yourself first
dcsm42 · 70-79, M
So true…good advice!!!@Lostlostlost
PureHeart2087 · 31-35, F
@Lostlostlost thanks
Relatable. And loving myself isn't the problem.
DoubleRings · 51-55, F
@NerdyPotato yeah. Knowing you’re a good person and not having anyone in your personal circle to share yourself with feels like such a waste.
DoubleRings · 51-55, F
Been there. Hugs. People don’t understand.

Well if you didn't have the attention of a bunch of absolute nutters before, this post will ensure that you soon do!
Dark humoured empathic response from someone also lonely, but also deeply cynical.

Unfortunately, it becomes harder and harder to connect with people as we get older. You have to make a concerted effort to put yourself out there, and that's never easy.

I dont know the answer to your question, i only hope it's "yes"

I always say, im not afraid of dying alone, its living that way that scares me to death .
NatureGuy77 · 51-55, M
Better than being with the wrong person or someone toxic. Just my humble opinion.
EPreject · 36-40, F
I think the better question to ask is WHY do i feel lonley .
jehova · 31-35, M
I have a similar situation but i have family i am close with.
wudifu · 46-50, M

PureHeart2087 · 31-35, F
