Dunno what's wrong with me tonight, I just suddenly feel totally alone and as if I am invisible to everyone and don't matter. It doesn't matter the place, I find I still am an outsider and cannot make many friends or find any sort of closeness with anyone. Maybe I am too old or something, or too formal, or too cold, or too ugly, or too something or other.

I feel lonely right now. I feel like I'll never have someone to talk to, and that I'll always be alone. It's not a nice feeling to be alone...

I feel the same way tonight. I just want to cry because everything seems to have gone wrong today. My neighbor wasn't feeling well so she didn't want to talk tonight. All my other friends moved away or don't talk to me anymore. Well except one other friend except her as*hole of a boyfriend, who probably has AS, won't let her talk on the phone to me so we have to talk when he's gone. Or she sneaks a call in when he's asleep or she sneaks to email. I'm lonely too. I miss the old days when my friend and I could stay on the phone all night and watch tv together.

I'm feeling lonely, overwhelmed in debt, no money for groceries and overwhelmed in chores I should be doing but I have a ruptured tendon and can't tolerate the pain of standing up.

No! You are not ugly! You are not too formal, merely courteous. And thirty one is not old, only six years more experience than me at twenty five. You have a wonderful personality. Try telling that to a sense of loneliness and depression though. Emotions refuse to listen to reason. Mine are as bad. Still, being devoid of emotion would bring not only immunity to suffering, but inability to experience any joy either (witness the Cybermen; on second thoughts, I hope you are not witnessing any). Of course a capacity for emotion does not necessarily mean all that much actual joy, but the potential is there. Sorry if none of this is particularly helpful; I hope some of it brings a smile, if not outride hysterical laughter at my folly.

What use is emotion... I have always found that mine when expressed, only got in peoples' way. I'd rather be without...a totally logically driven person. When the hurts outweigh the joys, you tend to get to thinking that way. Maybe a cyberman is the only sort of man I am suited to, heh.

At least your sense of humour appears to be more or less intact... Seriously, I am not sure that logic completely divorced from emotion would be that good, though presumably one would be unable to be depressed about it if it were not. Perhaps a selective inhibition of the emotions. Hmmm. Happier but less capable of maturing as a person, that might be the way...

I should probably not jest too much. Loneliness can be very hard I know. But then interacting with people can be very stressful.

This all seems so hard. Why are such nice people as you and Graelwyn so blighted by misfortune. It does not seem just.

:cry: I can relate to this...
I wish to tell you that your emtions expressed in WP have never felt to me as getting in people's way...and I like reading your posts...oftentimes they are insightful and helpful...
I think people like you a lot here...you have a good presence...

Well if you turn down all advances then you'll remain that way! :P

There are different kinds of advances. The unwanted ones will result in fireballs. Don't mess with mages.
