Technology can be the cause of, or cure to lonliness.
I have made many cool friends online in the 10 or so years I’ve had access to the internet, most of whome I’ve kept in contact with. People whose e mails were so important to me, especially when I was in college and away from friends/family back home.
Meeting people online can be so much easier, you don’t have to fear being yourself and you can consider your response before you reply, so feel less like you’ve just stuck your foot in your mouth.
Forming relationships face to face is hard. But you have to accept that everyone carries their own worries around in their heads, so someone appering to give a brush off answer to a compliment or a nice remark may not always be about you.
I started a new college course last year, and was amazed at how quickly certain cliques of friendships formed. I pretty much kept to myself and got on with my work. The course has a fairly high drop out rate so I just wanted to make it to the next year. But now, in our second year, between drop outs, exam failures and people branching off into other subjects my group has become way smaller. I’m the same person, but now that those of us left have a chance to interract more, I’ve formed some really cool friendships. Sometimes you just need to see who is around you.

jees...

this country is strange. America. I am so lonely in here. I so much wish I had people to talk to. I am doing Masters from here. In a bad relationship. No, I am not on the lookout here. Just ....well, lonely.

i know how you feel... i felt that way at one point... but... i learned to hold out... in time the one you love will come into your life. and you’ll see it was well worth the wait and the pain. until then though. surround yourself with friends. they’ll make the wait seem like nothing at all in hind sight.

this is how i spend my nights;
hbo on demand
some caffeinated drink
and... my laptop.
the only source of warmth i have when i’m lonely is a machine
yes it glows, yes it can provide words of comfort,
but it can’t hold my hand and it doesn’t have a shoulder for me to put my head on
i "" instead of smiling
i just want someone who will be there late at night, when i’m keeping all the lights on
and the tears in

married with children but very lonely
I see I am not alone in being lonely.

i am... i tried but i have failed. i am just lonely now. i tried to put myself “out there”. i tried to be interested and interesting. but, i am neither. i don’t know. maybe this is the way it’s supposed to be for me. alone. the stupidest part? i STILL have a grain of hope that someday i will find him. i think that’s the worst part. if i knew i wasn’t i could live my life and not think about it. just accept it, and move on. i could be alone, but not lonely anymore.

-sighs- I dislike some of these usernames.

your name compells me..and im cold *goes and puts on socks*
