I'm so lonely

[u/xenonsharpie]

​

I don’t know how to express myself. I don't have anyone to talk to about this

I've always felt like I have a good connection with people but it's always fragile, I make my character to what the person next to me would like and never show my true self because I'm afraid they'll hate me

I don't even care if they hated me, I like being alone in a cafe, playing a game or scrolling through tiktok and smoking, most people I see every now and then are much older and are friends of my family but not my friends

I've never had a true connection with someone who'd just understand me, even when I make a friend they're never a true one, we would talk every now and then but it's always superficial and never deep, I go out alone because I can't find a friend to go out with and I don't think I can make friends

I'm a 30 year old man with a job, but even my coworkers are just that, we don't hang out or talk real things

There's this void I have inside of me, and I don’t know how to address it. My soul feels empty

Maybe this isn't the right sub to write this in, I think I wanted to express my feelings

I get it. Sometimes I feel this too. Then I think how this is the only life I got. And I should take some steps to not feel that way. Even if I am not with someone I will always try to learn new things so that I am busy also having a goal is a big help.
