what is wrong with me?

Question

I have a lot of friends..but sometimes I dont know why I feel so empty...i have no idea why I'm behaving like this..

Answer 1

If you have a lot of friends, which you said you do have, you shouldn't feel too bad about yourself. Really this is a question you need to ask yourself. I don't know you, so I can't say much and you didn't say much more in the question. Do you dislike your looks, or your personality? Maybe speak to a councilor, to get advice on what to think of yourself. I've had a similar problem before.
Goodluck.

Answer 2

I know exactly what you are going through. I'm considered a very outgoing, sometimes charming and affable person who thrives on meeting new people and establishing positive rapport in a short amount of time. And while I don't have a lot of close friends, I have plenty of acquaintances and find it easy to meet people.

Yet, I often feel alone and empty inside. For me, it's because I want companionship, a girlfriend or lover for example. You may not be wanting the same thing, but you are yearning for something that goes beyond friendship. Surrounding yourself with others can help in the short term, but there is something missing that you need to face and cope with. It's a good sign that you acknowledge this missing piece, now you need to work on how you plan to fill it.

Answer 3

Dear, we all feel like that from time to time, that is why we always search for love. If we are lucky enough to find love, then the emptiness will be replaced by the feelings of joy and content.
Some poor souls does not realize this and think that they can get rid the emptiness if they can buy all the goodies and entertainment they need, yet they simply end up lonely.
There is a very old song that correctly state this in the lyric:

I have conquered the world, but what then do I have?
without love I have nothing, nothing at all.

Answer 4

How close of a friendship do you have with these friend's? Are they like mutual friend's or true ,long time friend's ? Maybe you don't feel that special bond with any of them to not feel empty .


Like that saying goes ..you can be in a room full of people and still feel lonely. A person can also be married and yet if there is no loving bond in that marriage you feel lonely,empty,unloved .

You seek a true friend to fill that void.

Answer 5

Having a lot of friends does always guarantee one will not be lonely. I would suggest you do something that you've never done before, which you would truly enjoy. Like hiking to a beautiful site where you can hear only the wind blowing and the solitude envelopes you.

(and to be on the safe side take plenty of protection)

Answer 6

Perhaps you need some more safe people/friends in your inner circle where you can open up & share your intermost feelings.

Also, if we only have good 'horizontal' relationships with people but don't have a 'verticle relationship' with God and the Lord Jesus then we feel empty because God designed us to know Him intimately. We were created to be His temple - to be filled with His presence. Without it we are like 'batteries not included' or 'God not included.'

Answer 7

Your friends do not give you the fullfillment that you really need. Therefore you feel so empty in spite of their care and even love for you.

You need the real adventure. You need coming up and bathing into the glow of luscious nature, where your emotions may come forth like explosions.

Answer 8

I'd need more information, but it sounds like you sometimes have the blues. That's normal; no one is happy all the time. If you find that you're sad more than you're happy, or if you start thinking about hurting yourself, then you need help.

Answer 9

Maybe there is some kind of depression problems and it might be a good idea to see your doctor about it. Good Luck!!

Answer 10

welcome to humanity, my dear. we, as humans, all go thru that phase at some point in our lives. when i went thru that, it was because i had no confidence in myself or my abilities. i depended on other people to make me feel whole but that didn't work for long. " Its an inside job" as the old saying goes. it will pass as you get older but it still will be lonely for a while, until you are happy with yourself.
