I Feel Lonely

do any of you know that feeling when you feel really sad and lonely but don't really want to talk about it/know how to talk about it because you don't want to sound like you're complaining/don't want to bother people with your problems.

Yes I've felt like that on many occasions. Most of the time I don't confide in people because they either don't care to listen, or don't understand. If someone can't relate to how you're feeling, it can make you feel isolated and alone

@Victorianna exactly. you feel like no one relates to you.

@codedlyoko some people may listen but not understand. If they can't understand, they can't relate to how you feel. Which only makes you feel alone, not just lonely

yep. and the feeling persists no matter how hard you try to make people understand.
