I feel lonely all the time. I want to make some new friends, but I can't open my heart to them. I feel really blank. I just want to hang out with my ex-boyfriend who is now my best friend. I am so afraid that other people will know my weaknesses, so I don't want to let them know anything about me.I call my ex everytime I am happy or sad, and he always be with me anytime I need him. but it's not that we are still in love with each other, it's just because he understand me very well. he knows that I am weak and lonely. and for me I can't trust anyone else beside him so I just turn to him. I can only be myself when I am with him. totally happy and natural. I can tell him everything, but I can't talk with other people more than 5 minutes. now he is in love with other girl. I know this is the time that I need to stop being his burden but my world is very small that I won't have anyone else to turn to if he leaves me. I am desperate! what should I do now? please help me

To combat loniness, you need to first understand that life isn't really about you..it's about what you can do for others.. anyone!...a loved one, your kids, family, people who need help, people who can't fend for themselves, your community, your friends..
Stop focusing on yourself and you'll live better. Go out and find people which YOU can make a difference in their lives. In turn, you'll realised that your suffering isn't important at all, and will soon find that life is really SOMETHING! and HAPPINNESS follows..

Try to open yourself up to new experiences. You are holding on to the past. One day he will not be there. He will eventually find someone else. Just because it is comfortable to remain close with only him, does not mean that it is right. You need to get involved in some activities that he is not a part of to give yourself the opportunity to meet new people with whom you have something in common.
