I can relate to that feeling of being lonely!

It can affect you quite negatively but you can also take this time to work on yourself and maybe reach out to others and form friendships with new ppl.

I have been betrayed, manipulated, and lied too. It’s awful.

Music, meditation, movies, Ted talks, and exercise help me to get thru the loneliness.

I’m here if you need to speak to someone.

I know the feeling. I currently still have no friends. Hope you have a pet. I have 3 dogs. Best friends I ever had and they don't hurt you like people.

I know that feeling. After scrolling through the endless number of people I have on Facebook, I still feel like there is no one that I can message or call. I just know that they wouldn't understand. But lately, I've turned to forums such as this and even though I don't know anyone here personally, someone or the other is always there to provide their honest suggestions. And I feel truly grateful for that. I've also been using this time to do stuff I enjoy like playing a Uke instead of being there for people who I call friends yet they continually drain me and expect me to be there for them all the time.

Hi- I understand how you feel because I also experienced being betrayed. It was a struggle for me to let go. I forgave them but the pain was still there. I listened to sermons about forgiveness and thank God I was able to forgive those who have offended me. It was not easy but thankfully I was able to overcome it.

I’m sorry that you are going through this. You are not alone. Keep sharing, we are here for you. I pray that you will experience God’s peace and comfort. Take care of yourself. God bless.
