Apart from talking to my local indian shopkeeper for maybe 5 minutes a day when i pick up the morning milk and eggs , in person i speak to no-one.

But i often speak on the phone and online. I used to get lonely - now i dont frequent pubs / clubs anymore. But life is a lot easier and less complicated being on my own, now im not getting dragged into other peoples personal dramas.

I got used to it in the end - and im happier for it.

Maybe you will turn out the same in time.

I’m pretty much alone most of the time. I’ve always had some problems socializing, often with feeling a strange sense of self or feeling that I don’t have the normal sense of self that I don’t always feel like verbalizing. I do better online though. I do ok with people when I warm up to them some to, but i find that difficult often.

When I have close friends it really changes my mood. That’s one reason I was quite a happy child. Living in Germany I had a close friend, and then as soon as I got here England I made a close friend via my parents church. I was such a happy bunny. But then our paths kind of seperated as we got older. Idk how to be around her atm. I once cried in front of her n she walked away cos I didn’t open up. This was wen we met up wen we were older. She didn’t know how to respond which made sense. Cos I didn’t say anything lol bout why I just cried out of the blue she’s very good at just looking deep into me and I feel if I don’t tell her everything then there’s a wall

I can’t stand being alone, left to my own devices isn’t a good idea, everything unravels real fast.

I greatly enjoy my family’s company, they help keep me grounded.

Don’t have any friends though, but I’m trying to change that with a social group playing dungeons and dragons every week
