I just saw a post that I deeply resonated with 100%

I’ve been wanting to get a lot off my chest and the post I saw gave me an opportunity to do the same. What I resonated so much with emotionally was feeling so alone in a world full of so many people. And having no friends to truly lean on and to get support and connection from. I definitely understand loneliness all too well and it’s something I carry with me every day. I don’t like having no social life at all outside work. I don’t have a close friend that I can go out with and have great times with. I always wish I had that and I long to have those deep connections with someone that is a loner too and values what I value with friendships and relationships. And it is true that the older we get the harder it is to make those real friends. I know this isn’t the place to find the right people to click with. But I’m willing to try and put my thoughts out there any way. I do my best to rely on myself and keep the loneliness away. But I can only do so much.

I'm exactly the same way, in that my work is my social outlet.
I interact with many people, but the thing is...it's in a professional environment.

Although, these people have connected with me on a personal level, it's still within my work space 🤷‍♂️

As you said, someone that you can lean on.
