i grew up a military child. so the first thing in life i learned is that nothing is permanent. nothing. people die. people leave. you leave. people grow apart. feelings just change.

but a thing isn't beautiful because it lasts.

this is how life is meant to be. growing and changing together when we can, and moving on to find others to grow and change with.

some of us jump around more than others. this isnt a bad thing. its just a different life path.

the native americans had a spirit totem for the bobcat. Those born under its guidance were meant to learn how to be 'alone without being lonely'.

those words really spoke to me and though I didn't quite understand it at the time It shaped most of my journey for my young adult life.

this isn't to say were meant to be hermits of permasingle or even never get married. just that we need to learn how to enjoy time by ourselves more than other people. because if you can enjoy time on your own, you'll never feel lonely.

>I can't stand being alone like this.
Come back once you start hearing voices in your head from isolation.

This is very true, we just gotta adapt. Adapting is hard though.

I know it's almost hypocritical coming from someone who also feels like shit, but suicide will only end it all. It might get better. The only thing that doesn't change is the fact that things change. It might get better, it might get worse. Time will tell.

>adapting is hard though

boo hoo.

its something we all HAVE to do, so how hard can it really be?

to say 'thats hard' is pointless. its level of difficulty means nothing. life is won by the people who just get up and do it.

Being alone isn't winning life, nor is adapting to being alone.

says who?

if you can be happy on your own, you're winning at life.

you cant control who comes and who stays, but you can control whether or not you're a whiny little bitch when they don't stay.

Fair point desu. I'm trying not to whine, but it doesn't ease the pain of it.
