Hi, I moved out of my parents house and a low income city two years ago with my fiance. Since then I lost contact with my friends and they have moved on etc. I have only had temporary jobs with agencies as full time work isnt advetised alot. Now I have finished my temp job, away from my family, no contact with any friends and my fiance is working shifts. I am stuck in a house on my own nearly all day, I feel so lonely and I dont know what to do. I am looking for a job again!! I am not a lazy ****.

Hey, I am like you. I had a bad marriage and lost my house because of it. I now live in an apartment and my new boyfriend works all day so I am at home. My work is sporadic as an artist and designer. It tends to give me too much time to think. I have found that three things that work.....One is to think about others that are truly less fortunate whenever I think about what I have had and lost. Another is always to have a vacation in the works....even if it is a small road trip and overnight somewhere that I can plan ahead......the last is to ALWAYS stay busy....whether it be on the computer talking to many people, doing some crafts or art work, or thinking of ways to sell things on ebay. You need things to consume your time (cook up new recipes....meet new people in your area via the internet.....start a craft that you can sell on line or make for holiday gifts). Last but not least...volunteer somewhere. I worked at the Salvation Army dishing out the turkey for a few Thanksgivings. Trust me, you will leave feeling good about yourself as well as fortunate. Good luck dear! Keep that chin up.....you are not alone!!!!

everybody does.
I moved a lot, it usually takes at least half a year until I feel reasonably comfortable. Usually a year to feel OK.
If you can't get a job right now, try volunteering, just to meet people.
Join clubs/organizations of people who share your hobby.
Depending how tight money is, you also can take classes in community college.There are a lot of evening classes. It may add skills to your list of things you do. Won't look bad on your CV. You will meet people. And it will give you homework to occupy yourself and study. e.g. you could learn another language.
If you can't find work right now you need at least a hobby!

when ever i am lonely, i tried to put on a good music, or just try to think of all the good things that happened to me, sometimes they are so funny that i started laughing to my self, or if i think about some thing which is bad, i cry to my self as well. i relieved all my stress that way. don,t worry if people don,t want you or are away, you can always try doing something which you like best,window shopping, putting on a good and humourous dvd to make you laugh, playing music and learning how to dance on your own, you will truly discover your self as well when you are on your own.dance and laugh at your own steps by looking in the mirror, talk very loud like you are with some one, answer your own thoughts when you have asked. its really that simple and you won,t need any pals if you try to be your best friend. when in public places, smile at every one you meet, give compliments and be very naughty by talking very funny, laugh out loud, and walk with your head up in the air. start a conversation , invite your friends over for a little party or dinner and dance the night away.

Why dont you make a trip home to see your friends and family. Then when you come back all level headed look for a job that will help you with your self worth. I went thru this as well, its just a "hump" You should also talk to your man about the way you feel.

It's not hard to relate to how lonely you are, but look at it this way at least when your fiance arrives home, you have someone who loves you and cares about you. Good luck finding a job, and what about finding your friends through the Internet - just a thought.

I do feel for you why dont you go and spend the weekend with your parents. Im sure your partner wont mind.If he is working I suggest you still go. You could even go for a week as you are inbetween jobs. When you get back find out if there is a local gym you could go 2. Or take up another sort of hobbie.Your partner must have friends why doesnt her arrange for you and his friends and their partners to go out. Most places have xmas parties you could go their and meet people. Im realy sorry you feel so isolated but Im sure that once you have a job and meet people within your work you will feel better. Cheer up sweeti..X

Sure I do and its not surprising you do at the moment. Have you tried re-connecting with your old friends, they may be pleased to hear from you - even if its just online. Alternatively try and find ways to occupy your time outside of the home. You might make new friends that way.

Hell yea. I think everyone fells like that sometime in their life. But the best thing to do is throw yourself into getting a job and dont give up and do more things, eg learn to drive or do a course to help you get a job. Dont ever give up, life will get better!!!

If your looking for jobs...search Jobs in 'your area' on the internet. Get a cat or a pet that looks after its self but is great company. When i feel down i listen to my fav. music eat/drink something YUM. Hope this helps :)

All the time, but more low than lonely.As I feel that being shy noone understands me and a lot of the time my intentions are quite misunderstood!
