Do you know what it’s like to be a loner?

I don’t have any real life friends. The only few friends I do have are far away to where they’re screen friends. They’re very supportive and caring of me but they aren’t available to talk most of the time. So it just feels very lonely a lot. I’m used to it but doesn’t mean I don’t like it. It’s hard to get through the days without having good friends to share anything with.

Maybe talk to your friends about how you feel.. they might find a solution maybe regular monthlt or weekly hang outs when all of you are free. This is drasric but... Have you ever thought about moving to a place where people live closer to each other? That could maybe affect your social lifestyle! I think it would be nice for you to just register in some group activity class, art or sport just to give yourself a place to make new friends. Not replacing the ones you have, but giving yourself an opportunity to meet more of them. There is a sense of discomfort being alone at first.. then you might actually end up feeling.. free. Free to be you without always considering what others prefer. Free to treat yourself right when others don't. Yet again, kick your butt out sometimes.. we must meet people from time to time to be healthy and to grow :)
