I'm a 52 year old single woman who is very lonely. Six years ago my mother died. We were very close and her death almost tore me apart. Before she passed, the two of us went shopping, dinner together, etc. I had many close friends and went shopping, to movies, had drinks, etc. It was wonderful. Now, all of my single friends have married, my friends that were married seem to have no time to do anything. We may have dinner once or twice a year!! Is all they have time for is their family. Since I have no family (no children, no spouse, no brothers, sisters, parents, etc.) my friends are the most important thing. The problem is, they only seem to call and/or see me when they have nothing better to do. I keep telling myself to quit feeling sorry for myself. I do have a good job and nice home, but that doesn't do anything to help with being lonely. Is all I do every day is get up, go to work, come home, eat and go to bed.
I was sitting in my chair playing card games on my computer when I decided to search about being lonely. I read many sad stories. At least I know I am not alone. | |
