Jessica :
If anything, going out and doing things by myself makes me feel lonelier!

I’ll never understand people who reply to videos/comments telling people to stop waiting for/thinking/wanting things when it comes to platonic and especially romantic relationships, humans are social creatures it’s totally normal to be insecure and sad about not having anyone. I am by myself a lot and still do fun things when I want to but I don’t find it enjoyable when I’m alone because the fun comes from experiencing it with someone, and that’s a normal thing to feel

It’s dismissive and often feels like a way to shut down a conversation that makes people uncomfortable. I’ll never understand the logic of hearing someone talk about how lonely they are and then telling them to go do things that will likely make them feel even more isolated, especially when many of those activities are things people typically do with friends, family, or partners. Instead of addressing the loneliness, it often just reinforces it.

A lot of people inherit their friend/social groups and it’s a closed system. They don’t get it.

It’s kind of the same as a telling someone that’s been unemployed for a number of months that they should apply for a job. If you’re recommending the obvious thing ever you may be missing some thing

People aren't exactly happy to speak to random people when they're out doing stuff on their own. Also depending on where you're located there aren't groups or clubs or things to do especially as you get older.

Yeah I hate when I say I’m lonely & people just encourage me to continue doing more things alone or offer new hobbies. Like I do a lot of things alone, I have so many hobbies 😐

Some really can't seem to grasp that doing activities alone ALWAYS isn't fun. Concerts, festivals, going on holiday etc etc etc. All fine on your own, but never sharing an experience with anyone is devastating after a while.

🗣️{💀💀💀} :
it's like, sorry, but responding to someone who says something important is missing from their life and they feel sad about it, the answer is never "just stop wanting it! hope this helps!" that's what this auto-response of "just learn to do things by yourself" conveys, bc what do you think i've already been doing

building a friend group, or even finding one good friend, from scratch is so incredibly difficult

its always the people with big circle of friends who say because they just don’t get it. for them going out by themselves is a „nice solo date” or some „me time”. but for others it’s every single day reality. doing things by yourself is fun when it’s your choice, not when you don’t have any other option.

we are a social species!! no amount of solo activities will magically remove the NEED for socializing!! we literally go insane from being too lonely.

I went on a solo trip to Colorado a couple years ago. I did the hikes and it was fun. But I didn’t have anyone to experience those things with. It was a lot of fun, but also lonely.

Same. I do urbex and stargazing and shop etc. I do everything by myself and just want someone to share even smal coffee moments with

Honestly, I prefer seeing movies by myself and I’m indifferent to eating by myself, but one of my favorite things to do is dance, but not matter how much I want to my social anxiety doesn’t let me dance in clubs if I’m not with someone and if I do, I subconsciously hold back

i fulfilled a lifelong dream when i was 28 by visiting japan alone. it was a year after a drawn-out breakup and i was looking to do something big to provide a new centerpoint to my life. when i was there, i saw the osaka castle from within a train ride unexpectedly and instinctively looked over my shoulder to share that moment of unguarded surprise with someone. but there was no one there and a pang of adult lonliness took over that space of childlike joy.

Sunflower - TheStarvingAutist :
I got upset with a friend a couple of weeks ago because she told me to just go to pride by myself and I told her that I was sick of doing all of these things that are meant to be shared by myself. I go and do things alone, and I come home feeling worse than if I hadn’t gone and done anything at all. There’s a certain point where having the experience starts to feel meaningless when there’s nobody else to experience it with… Because those memories and feelings I get to have while I’m out doing my thing our self-contained… And I don’t find that fulfilling. I have no problem with my own company, it’s fulfilling when it’s not the only thing I have to choose from.

I have a few good friends, but they all have other, more close friends and Im just a coffee friend for few times per year for them. Better than nothing, but still lonely most of the time:/

this type of comment speaks more about the person commenting never doing anything alone

Christina 💐 :
“squash this feeling” is so telling because why does that feeling need to be squashed? being able to name the feeling of loneliness and identify where it comes from and what it’s telling you about what you want is totally healthy. a feeling doesn’t have to be exterminated like a pest in your house just because it’s not positive.

You can even be lonely still have a social group - they might just not fill the gaps

People who don’t spend a lot of time alone, don’t understand that you do feel comfortable doing things alone, but it’s okay to want company while doing those things.
