Hi.

right now i am so lonely and honestly have never felt more alone. The few friends I had have either moved away, or simply drifted apart, and now for the past 12 months my only contact with the outside world has been work, which i hate. Last tuesday at work i had a panic attack (although no-one knew it) i was on the verge of tears sitting at my desk. I have no idea what to do, i try to meet new people or socialise with some of the nice people at work but i have no personality and the conversations are always short-lived. I know millions out there probably feel the same way yet i have never felt more hollow, and empty. Im 25, i should be out there living life, or heck even raising a young family, not this.

Ok i have the weirdest story. As lonely as hel as i felt yesterday on the train this morning on the way to work i ran into an old mate i havnt seen in years it was great! And then at work first thing one of the guys comes up and invites me over on the weekend to test out his new home theatre system! 2 years at that place and this was the first time someone actually wanted to socialise with me outside of work! and all within 12 hours of this post! i dont know i actually feel really good right now!

thats awesome football….

isnt it weird how some times we feel spiritually and emotionally poor one moment and hten BAM!! it ihts you like a ton of bricks that your not alone.

i think part of what made your work mate say hey come one over and check out hte new theater was ( i know this will sound stupid) the glow after seeing your budday on the train..

also, i love watching people interact and communicate… im studying it in school..so anyways..humans are social creatuers we hate to be alone like ohw you were feeling. i know this too will sound weird.. but try flirting. now i dont mean hardcore hey buddy lets go to bned type flirting..but when you make friedns your flirting.

Think about it yall…

your hanging out you start talking to some one about a common topic, hte cost of gas, bush, yankees.. what have y ou. ytou start joking and such you start talking about your iving.. you say see you around and you do and its just we all flirt to an extent to make firneds., just think about it. think about how you met your best firends..

but im happy for you football.
