why is it you can feel lonely in a crowded room?

Question

it was my 25th birthday and i went out with friends, but i don't think i've ever felt so lonely!

Answer 1

I am thinking that something , or maybe someone is weighing heavy on your mind/heart . There's nothing wrong having this feeling . It can be sad , or even depressing . If your not happy , sometimes you need to get pro active , and do thing that bring you joy . also doing things that bring you a sense of purpose . crowded rooms , for alot of us are places to avoid . small talk , phony people ..even shallow people . Dont worry , so much . Raise your purpose , do something thoughtful or meaningful for someone . A random act of kindness . Take a walk . Make someone happy . Its contagious. Good luck . Be happy . You are someone worth knowing.

Answer 2

You Can Feel Lonely In A Crowded Room Because There Is Not That Someone Special For You There.
Everyone Needs Someone That Means Just That Little Bit More.

Answer 3

Sounds like you are growing apart from your friends - you're 25 and your probably not the same person you were when you first met them - we all keep changing throughout life, no matter how old we get. The true friends are the ones you keep in your life no matter how you change. 'Alone is not lonely' is a phrase that has served me well through life - I too have discovered you can be more alone in a room full of the wrong people than on your own.

Make a list of what you want out of your life, friendships, relationships and start making the changes this year that you need to make to be happier.

Answer 4

You are a poor soul, I feel that way often, I am 55 though and know that it is a response from members of my family who are ganging up on me because I used to be a bad parent, hitting the kids too often. I cant find work now and this may be a result of this abuse I get. Find someone who can love you for all the right reasons not just your body and you will never feel lonely.

Answer 5

May be at that time you felt as if you wanted to be with your friends but mentally you wanted to be somewhere else and if it's not truly who you want to be with and really where you want to be you can be in a crowd of people and feel very lonely.

Answer 6

Ys J, each and every person probly experience like that for the time of many situations. i think of of we wanna think of of we are all superman till finally we try to offer up even an emotional bullet.

Dear Bamba,

I think you lack confidence in yourself as a result of feeling self concoius and shy. MAybe you had rejection in your life as a child or someone paid you attention that made you feel awkard and smutty and dirty, loathing yourself as a result. There can be many reasons for feeling like a sore thumb. You are too conscious about self. You feel you have to make the right impact on people and never think you do. I think you lack a lot of confidence. You fear people, which makes you want to crawl into a corner at a party and die quietly because you feel out of your depth. THere is an excellent book on the market written by Joyce Meyer called the CONFIDENT WOMAN. THis book is awesome and highly recommended. Read it and practise what she tells you to do. BEcome more positive about yourself. You are more than likely living by feelings and emotions and believe me it gets most of us into trouble. One has to override feelings and emotions and the only way you can is to choose to do this even when you dont feel like doing it. I can decide to leave my dishes in the sink for the morning if I feel to tired because I FEEL tired, and probably find the dishes full of ants the next day, or I can choose to override the feeling of tiredness and simply do what must be done! Its as simple as that! You can overcome your feelings of inadequacy by choosing to push them aside and just go and enjoy the party. Begin chatting to people and get to know them. Become bolder and more fun. If you operate negatively people wont like you. No one likes being around a negative person. CHoose to be fun and just do it - leave the feelings behind, they will only cripple you if you give in to them.

I hope this makes sense to you and would like you to read a book called BE ANYTHING YOU WANT TO BE by John Maxwell.

MAy you make the right choice! All of the very best for your future. The positive one!

Answer 8

You feel loneliest in a crowded room because you don't know anyone, you see every one else socializing and you want it too! But you don't know anyone and you're shy. You're all alone while everyone else is with someone. That's why you can feel lonely in a crowded room.

Answer 9

It is hard making new friends otherwise I would have change your friends. Sometimes on your birthday, if you are like me, you get all reflective and moody and that may account for that. I now like spending my birthday among a select few and we don't even talk about the birthday as such.

Answer 10

Maybe you are growing apart from them. Maybe you were just thinking about where you are in life and are you truly happy. birthdays can do it to you sometimes and just make you reflect about your life. Maybe you feel like you need a little something to shake up your life. Whatever it is, I hope you find it and feel better.
