A worse feeling.

Have you ever been lonely that you met up with your friend only to feel lonelier? "Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself." Quote from the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's". We are all the same but for some reason it doesn't feel like that sometimes. What do you think?

I'm sorry but I don't get that quote from that movie. I haven't seen it yet. I haven't experienced that yet but I am sure that meeting up with any of my friends will take away my loneliness.

I think that a feeling of loneliness after meeting up with a friend can be normal, because it makes you remember how good it is to have close friends and then when you get home you are sad because it has come to an end and you wish that you could see that friend everyday. It is also hard because when we meet up with people they tend to tell us everything that's going well in their lives, meaning that you feel as though your life is a failure in comparison to theirs, but you should feel better knowing that there will be things in their life that they aren't happy with but they're not likely to mention anything like that in front of someone they're trying to have a positive meeting with.

i have to say it can really be frustrating. sometimes we do not need to be with others to be with ourselves. there are many things we discover and decide alone. that could feel much better. here's wishing you'll be okay soon.

hello, what a nice quote and I agree because it says that no matter how you run from yourself you will still end up running into yourself because you are still alone and nobody will help you but yourself. right?

My worse feeling was when I found out that the guy I love is already married... Its the worse feeling I got... I can't explain how I felt, I want to be lonely and cry until I fall asleep... its horrible...

hi in the first place why should you run when you are alone ??? obviously running away from the present scenario will not only worsen the situation but will also increase the depth of already haunting silence of loneliness . So insteead of runin away from the deathly silence of loneliness you could try out or participate in many thought involving activites like painting , photography , composig songs any brain kindling activt so that your brain is occupied without leaving even a smallest place for the thought of loneliness to creep in .:):):)

There comes a time in our lives when we reach a kind of crossroads. Reality hits very hard and we can see what it is all about. We see ourselves as we never have before. Depending on how we have lived our lives. We are so very atune to life around us at this time that we are very sensitive to our surroundings. Time to chose our road and stay on it.

Hi Lore Of course that happens when you have a limited set of special friends. For me the chances are quite higher as I have only one friend in the real world - my wife. And she cannot be the same everytime. I mean, as a person, she too has ups and downs in life and many a times, I am in a better mood and she is not - this makes me feel more lonely as after the days works when she arrives, she seems to be different at times. Cannot run away from this as this is human nature, I believe and also I cannot force on her.

Yes I have and wondered why I went out in the first place. lol, There have been times I felt like I needed to be around someone to then wonder why as I felt empty with nothing really to talk about. Everything seemed numbing at the moment and could not wait to get back home.

I sure have done this then most of the time I wonder why I did it. There are times when it is best just to be alone but we don't feel like we want to be there, in that position. I find I need to just head back to the home front and work things out. Music helps a lot.

I run into myself all over the place and I am also sitting beside myself right now. Thats a little freaky. But the me sitting beside myself does not talk, has no emotion, seems real depressed and just keeps looking at me.

Haha,no matter where you run,you just end up running into yourself! Yes,just becuse of that,I would rather drive myself to my orange grove instead of visiting my friends often.There I can smell the perfume in spring,enjoy the green in summer and harvest the fruits in fall!As long as I'm in my little orchard,I never find loneliness!

Well, sometimes I get too moody and lose my momentum which ruins the rest of my day. In those times I feel lonely, and even when I meet up with my girlfriend I still couldn't get my vibe back. It's weird.
