Yes, sometimes I am...true, I do have many friends, family, etc.

But, since I am the type of person who desires to have a life-time partner...I feel that I have sort of a 'void' (in more ways than just not having a partner, though), which in turn, does seem to make me lonesome at times.


I do realize, however, that I am really not completely 'alone' in the literal sense of the word...

No, don't get lonely really. I just never have the time and I do have some great friends. I guess it would be nice to share it all with someone though......thumbs up grin

To Joisit and Ashanti............. understanding depression has come on in leaps and bounds over the years/generations but there is still a long way to go, its still a very mis-understood and under-estimated condition. If nothing else, I hope that through your inter-action with many friends on here, you can find some sort of solace......... you know where we are, eh??
thumbs up hug kiss

Loneliness is not always bad. It gives us time to refect, to realize how important our relationships with others really are. If I did not get lonely sometimes, I wouldn't treasure the times I have with people as much.

Does that even make sense?dunno laugh

For me, it's the choice you make.
...As much as an 'other' might be a bonus, I am NEVER lonely, but often alone, - appreciating being me. (I think!)

Yes, that makes perfect sense, my friend! I do agree, but real loneliness is much more deep-rooted and when you are talking about that combined with depression, its very serious..... as I say its a very under-estimated condition. I think the majority of us have no idea....... we need to be more accepting and more tolerant, no??
