hi there, lately, i have been feeling so down. i get so stressed here because of what's been going on in the family. i have been wanting to move out but i can't yet because i don't have enough money for that and also i haven't found a job yet. and i wanted to have someone i can talk to. i was thinking about making friends here on mylot too, but i know we can all be friends here, but you know i can't just message everyone asking if you can be my friend hahaha but also i don't know if this is what i really want because i also don't know if i can really have time talking to people online. and maybe i am just thinking about this because i have been feeling like i am alone and that i have no one to talk to. maybe i just need an outlet for now. have you ever felt this way before? or am i just being weird?

I feel that kind feeling too recently. I am sorry I can't really tell whether it;s normal but I can tell that that kind of feeling is really corrupting. at least for me. I feel that kind of feeling corrupting me as day by day I feel less spirited and lack of energy. nobody I could tell this without making myself scared of what they had in mind if I told them about it. loneliness is a really horrible mosnter.

You're not weird! It is normal to find for others opinion when you're in stress, and it's a good thing that you chose to express your feelings because it could help you ease the pain you have right now. Your problems, were exactly the same problem I've encountered in the past few days, and I have friend with whom I opened my situation most of the time, and through her listening with me, I feel relieved. Maybe you could also find someone, maybe friends who are not only online, but friends you can also share your emotions face to face. For sure, they could help you to become much stronger on facing your problems.

i wanted that too but all my friends are far from me. i don't go out of the house and i don't even know most of our neighbors hehehe. i went to school in another city and i spend most of my life there. and now that i am back here because i just graduated, took the board, passed it and doesn't have work yet because i am still finishing some papers. i hope this feeling goes away very soon because i think i am getting sick from it

Hey cherish...sometimes talking to a distant friend can be a lot easier than talking to someone right next to you. I know that feeling well. I am going to go to your profile and give you my email address and IM. For me, it may be a nice thing to get a personal email once in a while. And to know im helping to lift someone's spirits makes it even nicer...we can share a lot and help each other. Keep your chin up. As they say "God doesn't always give you what you want, but He'll always give you what you need"

Hmm, this discussion is about 3 months ago but I think many including me are looking for other friends online. Sometimes it is comforting to know that you can still talk to other people when you feel down and you feel no one wants to care about you for a while. You are not being weird, many people are actually having the same feelings at times.

you know what, i met someone online. he's a good person but I think he plays around a lot. so i wanted to stop talking to him but he still messages me a lot. i am ignoring him because I don't want him to think it is something more than that. but still i am thankful to have met him because the past couple of months has really been very very hard for me, you have no idea hehe and i really needed someone to talk to. my friends are all so far away from, some of them are in US now and some are in UK. so my only friend was my laptop and I could really use someone i can talk to online..

Well try to remember you are not alone. There are people with the same, similar or other problem like yourself who want to feel they have a friend online. I've recently learned not everyone will be a friend but you will sometimes if you get lucky find someone that will listen. I don't think it is weird at all. Whatever works for you is the way to go I guess.

i know what you are feeling. you are just bored. do something different. or better yet, apply a job away from home. that will give you time to miss home. and through that you can meet new friends. you can always post here in mylot. surely, there will be responses and you will never be feeling alone.

if you are lonely, this is the right place to come. i come here when i am lonely or i want to get something off my chest. the people here are great because not only do they want to talk, the want to listen. i think mylot is a great place to make friends. consider yourself one of mine.

hi there, i have been keeping myself busy here on the computer. it's hard because i am far from my friends and also my other half that is why i don't have an outlet. i hope i will feel better soon. i have been having physical symptoms from all of these. i really hope they all these would go away already.

One day i asked one of my colleagues about a website where i can get friends. He suggested me mylot and i joined. although he told me about the earning criteria, i was not interested at all and became a good member. Thus i have made some good friends with whom even i called staying outside from mylot. It works, really great. have a nice time.

yeah this is a great past time. i love spending time here. i have work now, i volunteer as a nurse and so i can't be here that much anymore. i wish i could though. i am not that bored anymore because i am so busy at work but i still wish i could find someone i can actually talk besides my friends that i already have.

Hi Cherish: It's natural that sometimes we look for a company. I have felt the same way before. You can try to send a personal message to someone you find interesting on the site. Don't feel desperate and you'll find the right person to be a close friend online. Have a nice day. ALVARO

hi there, i have just learned yesterday that i am depressed, not that i say it so because i am sad, but i really am depressed. i think my friends are what i need so i ca talk to them and cry it all out with them. i has been way too long that i have kept everything inside and so it built up and now making me feel weak and sick. thanks Alvaro.

you're not alone on that feeling my friend... and you're not being weird as well, coz if it is... I'd be feeling weird too, LOL...it's just but normal that we wanna be with people yet we don't want to have a chat with them all at the same time...we just want to be in the presence of a huge crowd and see them, observe them all having a chit chat, or maybe even just listen to what the hell are they talking about...ahh, in short, that's probably just boredom, lol.

Once in a while, most people have that moment in life. Not all days are happy and okay. There are times when you feel all alone, many things are not going right in your life, you want to be emotional and dramatic. That will pass and everything will be okay.

i hope so too. i just wanna be away from everyone here. i am just glad mylot can keep me busy. although i haven't been as active lately because i just want to do nothing at all and just stay in bed. but i tried today and just wanna move on again. i am trying to look for a job and hopefully i find one.

hey! it is perfectly fine to feel that way. I too want to move out from home when I cant stand my brothers. hehe But it will be ok later. Making friends online is good but do not trust people easily. Like in the real world, some are not worth your time. Anyways I can be your friend, just send me a private message if you are interested. And dont think too much about your problem.

thanks for the advice, i know, it can be dangerous too especially a lot of people can take advantage of those who are weak. i have learned yesterday that i am depressed. real depression not just because i am sad or something but really depressed. i am trying to think about happy thoughts and just looking forward to seeing my friend tomorrow. i really need someone i can talk to, someone i can cry it all out with. maybe it has been too much. i hope i feel better after we talk

Not weird. We all are having good and bad of our lives. The internet is a great place to sociallize (or however it's spelled). I've been through a similar situation, and know how it feels :) Good luck!
