Being as you are here you may very well be single...I know this is not the case with all members but still I am sure there are a fair amount of others that are also single. So what do you do to fill the void? if there is one. For me I think I do not fill that void so much and thus feel somewhat alone many times. I do have my music projects and of course the things that life throws at you that can cause you to forget about things like being involved with another that has your Heart in theirs'.

My filling the void is different than most people.
I wait in anticipation of retirement so I can leave and go find where I want to be living.handshake

There was a void for a while after breaking up, but I think once I moved on I wouldn't call it anything like that. I don't like feeling down over a long period of time (of cause I have my "bad days") and I will kick myself and be out and about to enjoy life in cases like that.

Sitting at home alone doesn't help. I like going out, meeting up with friends or doing sports etc. in my daily life. For me the key in cases like this is not sitting home alone and thinking about what is missing in my life but to make sure that I have a life I do enjoy.

It is hard if more than one "bad thing" is going on at a time though. dunno

I think it's better to be alone than lonely with someone.

Hiya B wave The void...not a nice place to be for sure. I fill my void with dreams, hopes and pursuit of those things that are within reach and reason but I lack in motivation and this needs to change. If I'm happy, I feel very motivated. There is a sense of comfort having someone to share lifes ups and downs with and the added bonus is that the person you are with loves you just as much as you love them. It's simply a comfortable place to be. hug

I have a low pleasure threshold, so I'm seldom bored.
That seems to help quite a lot.

Hi B,

My life is pretty busy. I don't have many opportunities in real life to meet anyone. I come on here mainly as a form of escapism and to dream of "meeting" someone who is as interested in me, as I am in them. Sometimes I'd like to be somewhere else, but I have responsibilities. It would be nice to go on a holiday, but those who know me, like yourself, know that's an impossibility right at this point in time. I think we all gather here for a sense of compassionship, some laughter, friendly banter and to let off steam occasionally.
I do understand the loneliness though B. I feel it too.....hug

What makes you think that if one is not in a relationship that there is a 'void'? dunno

For some, there may be.... for others, less so.

It IS possible to have a fulfilling and happy life without a SO. Some are less likely to manage on their own, yes.

One needs to determine whether that's because of love or dependency....

I would dearly love to have a fine man in my life but he has, sadly, eluded me. I am quite capable of managing on my own if needs be.

I made it clear to my partner that I would rather be on my own than in a sub-standard relationship..... he didn't take me seriously. There are those who will settle for whatever they can get..... not me. I'm not particularly demanding, picky or have pre-determined requirements but if someone doesn't have your best interests at heart and doesn't think you're worth the effort, in my opinion you're better off on your own.
cheers

I don't have a void.


And I'm nervous of men who make it apparent that they have a woman-shaped hole in their life that they need to fill.


I like the word 'enhance' in terms of someone coming into my life wine

You do so have a void, all women got a void like all men got a tent pole to fill the void.
