I Am Lonely

I’m truly convinced that I’ll be lonely forever. I battle insecurity and depression. I’m chronically insecure and can’t fathom the thought of myself in a relationship. I’m 17 and I’ve never been in a relationship, had my first kiss/ held hands etc. Guys don’t show interest either. I’m also different and unique artsy, creative and I have a lot to offer I’m just... stuck and feel like no one understands or related to that part of me. And this year I cut off a friend because we were having troubles and I don’t regret it. But she was my only close friend but now I’m my only friend. It’s gonna take some getting used to I guess. I get lonely and cry when I’m alone. And it’s awkward having mutual friends with my ex friend. I don’t know what to do now I’m a loner. No one to text. To relate to. Stay in touch with everyday or send anything to. I’m so so isolated and no one understands.

Some people at much older ages go through what you're going through so you're definitely not alone, but I do empathise and I'm sorry that you are going through it now. The bright side to this is your age, and 17 means you have lots of time for things to change, plus they are more likely to change for you because you are younger. I'm not asking personal information but think about what your plans are for school or for a job because things like that usually lead to making friends in some kind of way. Sorry I can't be more help but I feel confident for you, I just wish I could fix it today because I know the feeling.

No actually you are helping me by telling me to stay hopeful. Your right I am young and usually everything seems like it’s the end of the world when it’s just the beginning. I’ll begin focusing on me and what’s best I’ll just have to push myself 💛@SW-User
