Discussion For people here who live alone: Do you ever feel truly cut off?

[Hoppipolla]

When I lived alone I felt SO CUT OFF, wow.

Even if I was on this forum when living alone it would feel surreal because I'm very alone and yet connected.

Currently I'm living in a houseshare again so even if nobody else is in... I still feel kind of connected, you know? Because most of the space I'm living in is also being engaged with by other people.

Sometimes I think it might be nice to live alone but with pets like dogs or something, but then I think that before long I'd miss having human beings living with me

 

[Todd Thundercock]

Yes, but that's what I want. I live in a dead silent apartment and walk in my park with a forest 100 yards away.

Sounds peaceful.

 

[TheCatMan]

I have my own house but it's in a noisy busy area so there's always someone around.

 

[Emba]

I cherish peace

I actually tend to find that I still feel kind of disconnected from the activity, if that makes sense? If I live alone.

Maybe it's mostly because they were just random strangers.

 

[Defetivecuckachu]

Yes.

And that's a great feeling!

Nothing to remind me of what I'm missing out on. Just me and my copes, in my own pewceful little fenced refuge away from the outside world.

I can actually deal with being alone in the house for days without my OCD acting up much at all but as soon as I feel truly cut off it goes haywire!

We're all different I guess

I work a reasonably pressured job that is about 30% doing design calculations, 30% looking after juniors who are doing design calculations, and 30% looking after high-value clients and their wants, needs and feelings... and about 10% hearing from my boss Mr negative about how none of it is ever quite enough.

I commute for an hour to and from work on public transport.

Getting home to my little eden, and closing the gate behind me when I get there, is a great feeling!

Yeah I don't know if I'd be OK with it if my life other than that was very socially connected. Or if I had pets.

Hard to say. I'm too afraid to find out though because of how much potential it has to give me OCD >.<

So idk really. That's great that it works well for you though ^_^

I live alone, its kinda peaceful living like that.
Sometimes I realize how alone I am and I start to feel sad for that but I use my time alone to read, play videogames and listen music.

I am practically a ghost.

Aw yeah erm, I get a bit down when I feel cut off too. I think my mind naturally converts most of the "distress" into OCD and anxiety instead of depression, but yeah I do get this feeling of "How did my life end up this way?" if it feels bad at the time.

Sorry, I hope I'm not making you feel worse by saying that >.<

But hey erm, there are always options! Like I tend to just live in shares as then I feel more connected ^^

No prob brother, I have been "alone" before living by my own. No friends and my close family well they have their lifes and partners.

I take meds to cope with my depression and OCD, so I just need to do my routine at home. Makes me feel ok

I like to come here and talk with fellas and exchange pov's about anything, makes me feel connected

This is probably how my family see me I guess. Kind of... inactive socially, I suppose.

Which is I guess mostly true at least relative to most people who seem to have very lively and full social lives.

I have some health issues though and also I thrive more socially when people are just around me. I'm not great at finding the people or forming a network or organising things.

After a while I guess I decided to put my social efforts on hold to focus more of my energy and time on health and money, which has overall yielded reasonable results. Better than constantly trying and failing to put some amazing social life together >.<

Good to read that man, when that energy is focused on you and your developing its amazing how nice you can feel.

You got me when I say we actually enjoy our time alone but it happens sometimes we have a negative reminder of our solitude, like seeing a couple or so.

Key is to learn to manage those mindsets, when we are alone we know ourselves a lot, we face our fears and demons by our own. Many times society and people in general are the same. Having a strong mindset and train it is our best weapon brother.

 

[Very Small Koala]

Living by yourself would be a privilege ngl.

I do also hear that women tend to be more attracted to guys who have their lives together and are competent. Which is something that I've noticed too ofc.

It can be hard to get there though and possibly will only attain the betabux role! I dunno.

You are right, women like solvent guys and competent once they are done having rode the cock carousel.

Even so, foids don't want an ugly guy as a partner. I am convinced if any foid gets attracted to me its because she is looking for a betabuxxer.

Of course I won't spend a single dime on such leech. I will give all my money to charity and my properties to my two brothers.

You are ungreatful lifemogger, you don't have nt scum scurrying around your house like rats and constantly plotting your death mutilation and torture.
