Don't mind being lonely, cuz you can always go out and meet someone new; but being all alone, that's just scary...

Well frankly speaking, i feel that we are born alone, we live alone and die alone. Most of us though are reluctant to accept this and therefore surround ourselves with people, to stop ourselves from falling into this deep and silent abyss. As for me, i may seek some company for some intellectual and physical fun at times but even those are rare moments.
Unlike the rest of the humanity, i welcome the freedom that comes with being alone to the point of being lonely.

Honestly being alone does not scare me at all. I rather enjoy it... There is always something one can do to keep the mind occupied....

If more people embraced being alone they would find out it is not such a bad thing after all... I like my quiet time....

Sure it is nice having someone to share things with at times but life can be just as enjoyable alone...

I'm NEVER alone.. the voices in ma head keep me company! bigsmile



actually.. aside from my weekly jaunt into the big city.. I'm ALWAYS alone.. sorta.. I have me pooch.. I work from home so I'm just about always on the phone talking to people.. and my kids call often (mostly just wanting something laugh ) and friends.. but I'm not at ALL afraid of being alone.. now that the kids are gone.. it's VUNDABAH!!!!!!!! I can streak naked thru the house and NO one says a darned thing now!! :laughing:

growing up I spent a lot of time in and out of hospitals so most of the time I was on my own.. sure there were people to talk to but no one person truly a confident.. so I guess I just got used to the notion that there's not always someone there to pick you up when you fall.. I figured I might as well enjoy doing things I liked and adapted.. sure it'd be nice to have someone to talk with about ANY thing at ANY time but.. not the way it is so... I busy myself with my home renovating projects and keep outta trouble! :wink:

I grew up as an only child and got used to being by myself at an early age...I enjoy spending time with close friends. And I miss sharing my life with my husband. (We were super close!)...But I guess I have a lot of inner "resources" and do okay by myself. (Due to being an only child and going it "alone" so much of the time.)...This was something I appreciated about my husband. He grew up in a big family but he developed a strong "self" of his own at an early age too. So he did "fine" whether he had companions or not...We operated as 2 separate "wholes" versus 2 "halves." And this was nice!.. I probably wouldn't do well with a man who expected me to entertain him or lead him around and come up with all the plans and ideas for both of us. (All the time.)

My mind is never empty. I read, inspirational books, and go out with friends for dinner and other outings. Just because a person is alone, doesn't mean they are Lonely. Also, I date when opportunity presents itself. Online dating can be flustrating, but do not make it your ONLY option.

There are approximately 7 billion people on this planet...
Plus or minus a billion.

Alone? Never.

I haven't heard a friend's voice in over a week. This is because I'm an over the road truck driver. Tonight I'm parked in Effingham, Il. and my home is in Ft. Worth, Tx. I won't get home again until the 28th and it's only for a couple of days. Then it's back on the road.

Having internet access helps a lot. Even if I can't talk to my friends, I can keep up with them on facebook. I have a huge collection of DVDs and I listen to a lot of talk radio. Mostly live feeds from home.

I call my dad once a week. I exchange messages with my adult son and I send videos to my little son. His mom and I still talk from time to time and she sends me videos as well.

Sometimes I talk to strangers in truck stops. But, I don't usually have much in common with them.

But, this is the best thing for me now. All my life I've danced. Now it's time to pay the band.
