Hi, I dont even know why Im writing.

I guess I just feel very alone and a bit sad right now, especially today and just felt like putting something out there, like a electronic message in a bottle.

Strange thing is, when youve been living alone long enough, sometimes it feels strange to have someone around to talk to at first. Then when they leave (like if its a family member or old friend visiting, the wound feels re opened and you feel extremely lonely.

I just wanted to know, how does someone make new friends these days? how does someone meet someone to love these days? everyone seems to be either in their car or busy getting something done all day that no one has time to talk to each other anymore. Is there anyone out there at all anymore? or are we all plugged in, lost in the system?

Eh take up a hobby. Martial arts is great for meeting people cause there is a very good chance the other people in the room are going to be on top of you in a matter of minutes. So you best get to know them as to minimize the awkwardness. Other than that there are a dozen hobbies you can pursue that’ll lead you to others. Try even taking a few classes a local learning annex, community center or college just for fun.

I know how you feel, at least on some levels. It’s not pleasant but, but if you really want to make a change, you can do it. Just need to put your mind to it. Good luck.

try getting involved in church stuff. even if you’re not religious. it doesn’t mean you have to go to mass, but they have Knights of Columbus and the MEns Club and all kinds of stuff! you’ll make a lot of friends, and with all the stuff you do, you’re very likely to meet a girl at one of the events ;) so even if you hate the religious aspect of it, join for the social aspect!

i can see how simple it is to say others what to do for socialize…these are advices for normal people…but what can we do when going to that places, and you look around, you find people with so different visions. what you don’t understand is that because of the way you lived till now, lonely, in your world..i can say(that happened to me - and this because i prefered create this so i can survive), you simply can not understand the others, and you get back home, in “your world” desapointed of the real one.
