What's the best way to beat lonliness?
I started going to the gym last week, started cooking, and I'm studying a few things that really interest me. Just thinks to take my mind off being lonely, but it's difficult sometimes. The ironic thing, is that I enjoy my alone time, but I still feel lonely? If that makes any sense...
also, I should add. I'm not looking for sex, or a girlfriend.

Get a social hobby. Or what helps me is going somewhere to be alone where other people are present, like library, coffee shops, malls or the movie theatre. It's more difficult to feel lonely when among other people.

WE ARE YOUR FRIENDS

I can't really think of any social hobbies that i could see myself doing. But your other suggestion is interesting. Maybe I could just go out to eat more, and sit inside instead of speeding through a drive thru
>>17865601
I know you are! :)
Know the feel, even though I have friends that I never see from one month to the next due to their fucking gfs and wives
See I hate being lonely, it makes me depressed as fuck. But when I have the opportunity to do stuff like go to the gym, I always find excuses not to go. Like right now, I'm supposed to be going to the gym and my brain is completely fucking with me and I REALLY don't want to go. Its anxiety, basically. Sitting on 4chan is the worst but I can't seem to get away from it
ahhh fuck this life

I haven't left my house in at least 4 months. I really realized how much I depended on my girlfriend, but she left me and now i'm alone. I try to still be friends and she said she wanted that, but she doesn't act interested in that at all. Every now and then I try to hang out, just as friends, to be denied. She is cutting me out, my friends always try to avoid me even though I try not to be a downer to them. Everyone is cutting me off and I wish someone would come around and just shoot me. I want what I had back.

Traveling helps man. It helped me a lot with my anxiety and depression. I'm level now, but just lonely
>>17865643
That sucks man
>>17866468
Tell me about it.
>>17866468
I hadn't talked in a straight week, tried to hang out today because I have birthday gifts for her. Was denied again. I don't ask for much.

Does it feel weird having a girlfriend? I honestly can't imagine a girl holding hands with me, being really close to me, and cuddling.
I literally can not picture that ever happening. and think if it did, it'd probably be uncomfortable, I dunno.
>>17866484
I can tell you it's weird at first if you're not experienced, I was a weird mess and we taught each other how to do a lot of shit. When you're in love together its amazing, you think you feel bad now for not having a girlfriend though? I dare you to fall in love and then have her fall out of love with you and leave, the pain of that is far worse.
If you can make it work, and find the perfect match, and don't fuck it up like I did, it's the greatest thing in the world. And now it's weird not having one, like I don't even know how to be single. I would actually give anything for her love for just another day.
You'd probably be uncomfortable but your mind can make it work, you learn.
>>17866509
Stories like yours are the reason I've never gotten a girlfriend. I see people broken the fuck down. And think to myself maybe it's best to learn from their experiences.
Plus, I don't know how tolerate a girl would be having a 26 year old boyfriend who feels awkward about being in a relationship, and doesn't know shit
>>17866530
I understand why my horror story scares you. It doesn't always happen, for instance, her parents have been with each other, and only with each other since they were in 8th grade and they're in their 40's now. I was on the road for that, but i really fucked it up, this is my own fault and I will suffer forever for it. And believe me, there are plenty of awkward 26 year old girls if you can find them, you just have to be honest. Start as friends.
This song will explain why you start as friends.

>awkward 26 year old girls
I feel like attractive girls do not fall in that category. Because attractive girls get lots of attention, whereas not all average or attractive guys get attention..
I'm definitely lonely all right. But I'm not desperate.
>>17866563
I'm sure there are some shy 26 year olds, some girls that want to wait or weren't ready when they were younger. Put it this way, all the girls that were super hot are going to be used up. You have to find someone somewhere with the same interests as you.

>I'm sure there are some shy 26 year olds, some girls that want to wait or weren't ready when they were younger
In today's society... I have a really really hard time believing that..
>>17866582
Don't forget there are 7 billion people on Earth. You can find your one. I know a 25 year old girl who is waiting until marriage to have sex so. You can find a girl, just don't stop looking.
>>17866593
>You can find your one
That's just a meme dude
>>17866608
I just gave you an example of it happening though. They were together since 8th grade, they were like 13, they're in their 50's now. And yes, they're still happy. It's rare, but it happens.
>>17866617
What I meant was; the whole "there is someone for everyone" is a meme. I truly don't believe it
>>17866625
If you look hard enough, if the two right people meet. It can work. I understand why you don't believe it. I find myself not believing it anymore as much as well.
>>17866649
Everyone says that if you look you won't find anyone, you have to just "let it happen" and they come to you.
I honestly think the whole relationship thing is a crock of shit. I really believe that not everyone is suppose to have a relationship. The ones who do are suppose to. But people like me just aren't meant for it

What do you mean?
The best way to end it is to just kill yourself.
I don't mean that in a mean way op. I'm not mad at you or judging you. It's just that death is the perfect solution to every problem. And I just don't understand why more people here don't try to encourage suicide in every thread here to help them solve their problems forever.
Maybe it's because I want to die so much that I feel like it's such a fantastic idea that I want to share it with everyone else. I mean it is a good idea. Death is great. Nothing better than death. Good ole death. Nothing takes the edge off better than death.
I won't ever go through with it but ah, the fantasies of dying. They're so sweet. Sweeter than fucking the nicest piece of ass out there.

that's a thought that's crossed my mind a lot. It's crazy because things in my life are finally going well for me. I'll be in my dream career in 2 years. But this whole thing with girls is so draining mentally. I often wonder if I still will shoot myself in a few years. The biggest thing holding me back.... I'm not very religious, but I do believe that the spirits of the people who commit suicide get trapped on earth. Which would be absolute hell..

jesus fucking christ. i'm in a similar situation more or less. I have christmas presents for my best friend because i'm a huge faggot, but she's too busy with "her family" to give me 10 fucking minutes of her time.
