I married her 🙄
Yes and I never ever want to be the reason someone would feel that way. I always strive to be that safe space for my partner who is incredibly sensitive and introverted. That no matter how busy I get, I always, always make time for her. To listen to her, sit in silence with her, and just be there when she needs me.

@DrScissorhands As a sensitive, introvert, thank you for being an understanding partner.

Yes, of course. I was my first wife’s carer.
If you can, surround yourself with vibrant positive people. Their love of life will rub off on you. It is endemic.

Maybe this little "thing" I wrote years ago was very telling at the time. Everyone can feel lonely. It is called...
The Journey
The dawn breaks and you're alone
Now must accept lifes truth
The forks in the road that led
to here
Were not the ones to choose
Adrift at sea
You challenged the tide
Ship now sunken
Must swallow your pride
The face you show
and the smiles you wear
Hide the feelings within
You dare not share
Tormented mind
Wondering why
So much to give
Yet fail each time
Can't place the blame
Accept your faults
This once chosen path
Now left alone to walk
Decision is now made
No more looking back
Many miles were travelled
On the wrong set of tracks
Light is shining ahead
Where this tunnel soon ends
Your lonely journey now over
How will the next begin….

I was married to one. Still am, but at least we’re not physically together anymore.
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@Ducky I'm glad you have found someone who keeps you safe and warm 🖤
Benjago · M
Yes. I feel like it’s all I know. I’ve even learned to make myself feel that way.
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@Benjago why would you make yourself feel lonely?

@ScreamingFox
Been away for a couple of weeks. Hopefully my dorky commentary can help you smile and laugh a little bit again. If that doesn't work...naked male jumping jack videos would be another option you may look into....

PerfectionOfTheHeart · 46-50, F
I could be in a room full of people and still feel that way.
SwampFlower · 31-35, F
Definitely people who made me feel like I would never be understood.
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@SwampFlower that's a very isolating feeling 😔
SwampFlower · 31-35, F
@ScreamingFox It took too long to learn it’s a sign you’re around the wrong people.
Ananke · 26-30, F
I feel lonely around everyone, sometimes. Loneliness is like a mood for me.
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@Ananke I think I understand in my own way. You feel less lonely when you are alone?
Ananke · 26-30, F
@ScreamingFox ....I don't ever really feel I am truly alone. Spirits are pretty much always with me. I feel less alone with spirits because I don't pretend with them like I do with physical people.
Sorry if that's a weird reply. You believe what you believe.

NeuroticByNature · 41-45, F

ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@NeuroticByNature I feel the same, it's better to be lonely alone
