Miss something/someone that may/may not exist...

Ok, basically, I'm on a deployment, I have some shore leave, I'm sitting in my hotel room, I'm feeling very lonely. I'm out hanging with my mates, I'm still feeling very lonely. I hook up with some random chick, I'm still feeling very lonely. I get myself a girlfriend, she sparkles like a star, she makes me smile, but guess what, I'm still feeling very lonely. Its like I'm missing someone, or something that doesn't exist, or I haven't found yet. I'm not adopted (I can guarantee that).

Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Its like I've lost someone, the only problem is I haven't. I feel as though something is missing but it isn't.

    I think it means you aren't ok with the fact that there is nothing here, so the part inside looks for a feeling of some sort so that there is something here, but if you keep looking for a feeling then of course you won't be ok with nothing :)

    Yes, I have experienced a similar feeling, and it probably means that you aren't being fulfilled. You might be frustrated with your job, your friends, maybe your girlfriend isn't as perfect as you want to believe, or maybe you won't know what this is until you find it. Talk to people and get these feelings out in the open, and try and branch out (cliche as it sounds, try new things--as long as they aren't harmful).

    Wow! Exactly like myself. Maybe we are "designed" that way: never to feel completely happywith what we have. Others possibilitys: depression or not found the right girl.

  • I've felt like that before, like there's something missing but don't know what it is.

    Either ignore it or hope that someday you figure it out.

    Maybe you just havent found something very special since youre still feeling like that. Also know that youve got everything people may want, so think about what if you didnt have those friends. Sorry if this may not even count as advice. I partially agree with this being normal. It happens to people.
