Whether you're single, dating around, or in a serious commitment, the feeling of loneliness is bound to happen. So I want to know how do you deal with loneliness? Because for me, I'm going to sound a little crazy here. I date myself. I'll invest time in myself because at the end of the day, regardless of where you are in life, all you really have is you. And I like to take myself out to a nice meal. I will, you know, spend more time on my hobbies such as photography or buy flowers, I'll watch a funny movie, just something that makes me feel like me again. And you know, obviously pick up the phone and call a friend or family member or even, you know, my boyfriend and just let him know that, hey, like, I'm not feeling, you know, the best and I would love to have a date night. Like, communication is key regardless. That's what what I'm trying to get to. So yeah, we'd love to know your answer.
I think doing hobbies is a good one. I think if I ever feel lonely I'd try to put on a TV series, a movie, read a book, make myself some tea, go work out, just anything I enjoy doing.
I love all the examples you just mentioned, especially reading and working out because those were my two defaults when I was in college and I really have to get back into reading. I miss being a bookworm. So thank you for that.
I'm pretty much the same. The reading definitely goes up and down in waves but I do feel that whenever I'm reading a lot I'm a lot more calm and collected So I definitely want to get into that more of that
I totally respect that because for some people it's about the physical part of being around others. For me it's more like a mental thing like I want to be distracted any way I can and just process my thoughts, if that makes sense.
I think it's so easy to feel lonely nowadays because everything that's pushed on social media tells you you can't be or you shouldn't be or that you know everything so exciting but it's not chill be good
I really appreciate that you brought up the subject of social media because in my work, I make it a goal to not make anyone feel left out or, you know, I try to be inclusive as much as I can is what I'm trying to say. Thank you for sharing that.
Going back to the subject of what you just said on being good, that's why I tell people, you know, take a time out, do things for you, and listen to yourself because at the end of the day, all you have is you. Um, yeah, contact creator or not. point.
I mean honestly loneliness I'm not really lonely because I know they're not gonna be my last do you know I'm I'm still young and I got a lot of life left in me so yeah
That is a really fair and realistic expectation of knowing that, you know, people are going to come and go in your wife and the best is yet to come. So yeah, completely get it.
I will say that I enjoy my time alone even though I'm in a current relationship and living with him but in the time that I get to be with myself and I try to
Oh wow, actually now that you brought it up, I'm curious, how is it getting alone time when you are living together? Because I feel like, you know what I mean? your space is shared.
Yeah, that's what I mentioned earlier about doing activities that make me feel like myself, like buying flowers, doing photography, working out, reading something that makes me have joy again.
I like to solo travel. I think you learn a lot about yourself and also somehow along your journey, you end up meeting more people. So it kind of alleviates that season of loneliness.
I love to solo travel. The first place I ever did that was in Australia. If you have not been there, I highly recommend it. Sydney is awesome. I'm a bit biased because I used to live there, but Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, they're all great too.
Things that make me feel like a child like just things I want to do like I have like a list of things that I like to do that open up my heart so I do that
I love how you brought out the inner child effect here because I always tried to resort to things I loved when I was a kid like painting or singing or reading, just the simple joys in life and experiencing on them again as an adult.
How I deal with loneliness, to be honest. I go to sleep, listen to music, take a shower, go back to sleep. Being lonely, it just fucking sucks. But I'm not depressed in any way. I just don't fucking socialize.
What you just said was incredibly relatable. You have no idea how many times I felt that way and I still do from time to time. Don't get me wrong. I just really appreciate your honesty. Talk to your answer. I wish I could pin it.
That's that's basically what you do in your knowing instead of being sulky on the moon fuck that when I'm alone I'll chill bro right blaze up love myself You know like watch a movie sleep clear my mind go outside. It's a fuck man Sometimes being alone is greatness as I my fuck is out here crazy stupid Slow self-entitled. I don't know whatever the fuck either way goes I ain't gonna let you kill my vibe. I'm about to go to bacon ason or something.
You know what I have to say it's awesome that you know the difference between lonely and alone Because most people don't and you clearly love yourself and you're doing things for you because at the end of the day all you really do have is yourself. So great pointers out there. Really appreciate it.
I think I got a lonely hack just because I was the only child and I think that's the the the the lonely hack I got right there because man it does suck but at the same time if it sucks being alone that means it's something that you don't like about yourself that sucks you got to enjoy your own company that's the cure of loneliness right there is you need to love and enjoy your own company and your own space and time.
That part of buying flowers sounds like pretty much of the Miley Cyrus song like I can buy myself flowers OK so I totally agree with you I don't mind being by myself at all actually I enjoy so much the time
