ever feel like you don't belong? I've moved from city to city and I thought maybe if I stay in one place long enough I may start to feel like I belong....it's been almost a year. I still feel out of place. I go to work, I clean/organize my apartment, I go to work. I am an independant person I've never had a problem doing stuff by myself....ie going to dinner, or seeing a play, going to the museum... but sometimes it gets lonely.....I do have a significant other he has his own group of friends. I just sometimes wish that I could go out with my friends.... that I could go out for coffee on a whim, or after work.... i have no one to do that with..... the times I have had the guts to ask anyone if they want to go here or there, or do this or that..... they say sure and I never hear back from them.......that gets kinda old and i've stopped trying.....i just sometimes wish i could find people with the same interests i have.....well like i said i'm just venting...... reply if you'd like

We're on the same boat. I also feel alone nowadays with most of my friends concentrating in their career and family life. it gets tough sometimes especially if I see a group of people hanging out together. makes me miss the good old days of college.
I think adulthood is synonymous with being solitary. As we have the power to make our own decisions, we become autonomous entities.

That is exactly how I feel also - I moved to this town about 7 years ago and have only had a job working with guys so have met no female friends here in town to go do things with - so it does get lonely! Hubby has his friends but I don't have any one around here to hang out with if I want to. So, I basically clean, read, do a little shopping and hang out at home by myself alot- as the kids have there own things going on. So i totally understand what your saying. And it is not that easy to just go out and make new friends when so many people already have there own friends and to get into there circle isnt always easy -

Yeah, Sometimes I do. I realized it takes alot of work and communtication to have a social friends group. I have actually had a clique of freinds since the 4th grade and we have never grown apart. I have to throw parties, and lunch dates to keep our friendship up. Maybe you should call up some old friends of yours and try to go do something together? Well, best of luck. You are not living, if you are alone.

BUT no offense to people i am who i am.. & your approval isn't needed. if they don't want to be my friend if i stay the way i am. there not worth being my friend. i used to feel like the outkast the little kid that nobody liked that nobody wanted to be around and stuff like that. but then when ever i found the right crowed of people to hang around everything changed. && now i dont' feel judged or anything when ever i'm hanging out w// my friends. now i'm able to live life to its fullest .. && i don't care the littlest bit what others think about me. because i know my true friends will always be there && support no matter what i act like.. dress like.. what i say .. or wat i do.. maybe you've found your friends in all the wrong places. maybe you should start over. try to find BRAND NEW friends who you feel like you fit in w//.. good luck.. && i hope you have as much funn living your life.. liike i am now..
