Why am i so lonely all the time?

I have always been the corner girl all my life. I have never been comfortable with attention.I have always been comfortable on my own & it really shouldn't take me by surprise that I always had very few friends.I had never been popular.Yet I find it very unbelievable now that I do not have a single friend! Not one single person I can safely call my friend. There are days when I pass the entire day without talking to a single person! Not even one!There are days when I badly need to talk to some one, I keep scrolling my phone book up & down searching for at least one name I would like to call & talk to...but I can't find a single name!Even when am on facebook there is strangely not a single person to talk to out of all the people on my friendlist. And I realise it really shouldn't be like this. As far as I can judge myself, I think I am quite a nice person. Not judgemental at all,very honest,loyal ....but somehow I am not fit to be anyone's friend? Is that possible? How do I ever find out what is it that I am doing wrong? (& no I don't smell or I am not funny looking either. Is it normal to not even have a single friend at the age of 29?

Is It Normal?

  • I know this feeling greatly. The only thing I can say is you need to find proper friends, although I also know how that is very much easier said than done.

  • Try going somewhere you would meet people; join a class or get involved in your community in some way.

  • I can totally relate to you. I have felt that way many times in my life. You sound like a great person...maybe you just need a little encouragement. Try something simple like saying "hi" to people in the grocery store. You will be surprised at how many people respond positively to that. I would also encourage you to get out more...force yourself out of your comfort zone. If you put forth an effort, I guarantee you someone or some people will come around! Good Luck!

    • yes very true. Its damn easy to get "happy time" friends...the kind who you can very well do without, the kind who would vanish when you actually need them. But it's equally difficult to get a genuine friend who would never leave you when you actually need her support.You are lucky at least you have your boyfriend :-)
