- (5 votes) Just feeling a little sorry for myself…
Well, there’s nothing wrong with feeling sorry for yourself now and then. Hey! We can have a group ‘pity party’! :D I’m sure we all have some of the same moments you are feeling right now, my friend. For sure. *warm hugs*
I felt alone at 24. (Yes, I can remember when! :P) It seemed like the world was moving along without me; like I had no real purpose in it, you know? And then I had a real brainy revelation: I would feel lonely and alone until I got off my butt and joined the human race (which did not live inside my room or my head). I made myself go outside. Then I took it to the next step. I made myself speak to complete strangers. If I saw someone taking pictures, I might inquire about the type of camera/lens and talk about photography a bit. If in a grocery store, I might make a comment about a product and offer a tip on how to cook/serve it. After awhile, it became so easy to just smile and randomly say hello to people. There are no strangers; just friends you haven’t met yet. Anyhow, it helped. :)
You’re a really nice person. You have a lot going for you. You’re intelligent, handsome (ooh la la!), witty, kind, compassionate, and on and on. So what keeps you to yourself? You have a lot to share. :)
@littlenick: thanks for the invite. Where’s the buffet? ;)

I recall being in Music Theory class in high school. The teacher asked me a question and I didn’t know the answer. There was a very nice boy sitting next to me and he whispered the answer to me. I ignored him and told the teacher ‘I don’t know’.
The boy looked puzzled. He asked me why I didn’t take the answer that he gave to me. I told him that it wouldn’t be honest because the answer wouldn’t have come from me. If I didn’t know the answer, I shouldn’t pretend that I did. :)
I agree with Puck’s parents….to cheat is only cheating yourself.

Ben, there seems to be a general assumption that you aren’t receiving any professional therapy because you posted from a spiritual perspective. There are some who don’t agree that the psychological and spiritual are entwined. Carl Jung, Abraham Maslow and William James are a few notables who poured the foundation for psychological fields that address the psychospiritual.
TP (Transpersonal Psychology), for example, respects and acknowledges the complete individual including cultural and spiritual beliefs and experiences. Within that framework, wellness is seen as being four-fold; mental, emotional, physical and spiritual. A problem within any of those four areas means there is not ‘complete wellness’.
If you are in treatment and your therapist is not acknowledging/addressing the spiritual dimension of your psyche, I encourage you to consider finding a therapist who will. It’s obviously important to you and your personal ‘well being’. There can be a huge difference between one therapist and another.
I hope you will return to this site to find all of the warm and encouraging replies that have been given by some very wonderful people here at Help. They are a sampling of those who make this site what it was intended to be; a place where you can seek help without bias, prejudice or ridicule.

Oh my! You’ve met every single one of us??? You’ve been mighty busy, haven’t you dear?
I see you have a site for helping people to reach goals. Hmmm…how about eliminating disrespectful posts on holidays? Think you can help with that one? Then maybe work on eliminating trolls. Oh, the possibilities are endless!
Thank you! :D Happy Thanksgiving!

I don’t think it’s usual to have a lot of friends. Most people have a few really good friends and the rest are acquaintances and associates. If you don’t have a ‘best friend’ yet, don’t worry about it. Quality means more than quantity and the right people will enter your life at the right time.
Meanwhile, there is no reason to isolate yourself or to feel isolated. Go outside! You can’t meet anyone or speak to anyone if you sit alone indoors. Go where there are people.
It’s not hard to interact with others. Just open your mouth and say something. Idle chit-chat is fine for starters. Do you know that a lot of dog owners anticipate chatting about their pets with complete strangers? It’s true. Walking a dog is a great way to meet others. So when you see somebody walking a dog, stop and comment on the dog. Ask about the breed, the temperament, the age, the name…on and on. Even if you are not really that interested. You need the practice talking to people who will appreciate your words. :) Try it! Then let me know how it goes, okay?
