For how long will I be lonely?

The worst feeling is not being lonely, sometimes it's being forgotten. At 35, I feel lonely, empty and isolated with no friends or significant other. I crave for affection, genuine audience and bondship. Will I ever find one has been the question have been asking myself for quite sometime now?

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.
