Sometimes alone is best.
Sometimes I wish I had one day to be entirely alone.....with no one to bother me or talk to me. Just to be able to think or read or eat or sleep when I want to. Just to be able to sit in the yard and close my eyes and feel the sun on my face, without anyone to come looking for me. Some people are always alone and feel lonely and other's are like me, taking care of someone who needs me, but I do get tired and wish for only one day of peace.
I don't hate being alone; but I've been alone for years and at times it does get annoying. It allows all sorts of nasty, negative, wicked thoughts to race through that brain,
believe me.
I understand you. You're probably never or nearly never) alone, right? On the other hand I'm nearly always alone.
And it's nothing great I can assure you.

Are you lonely? You can ALWAYS PM me if you're ever feeling lonely. So please dont feel that way.
Am I lonely? No way, I have 3 kids, 2 dogs, 1 husband, a father that lives with me.. i am NEVER alone. There are days that I wish I WAS alone. I come to work and get a sense of peace. I dont have someone every 3 seconds screaming MOM! MA! HEY! MOMMMMY!!! MOMMMMMM!!! Ma Ma Ma Ma! I love my life at home, dont get me wrong.. but i'd like 1 day where no one bothers me! lol! I dont think i can handle years at a time, but a few days sounds like a vacation.
Remember, you can always message me <3

Thank you so much for your kindness, appreciate it.
I guess it's only normal for those who have a family to wish he/she were alone for one day. By the same token, those who are alone do need company every now and again."Forbidden fruit is the sweetest" as is said, and always the sweetest! Notice that all those who said they'd like to be alone, have families.
Once again, thank you for your understanding.

I often have negative thoughts as weĺl. Which is think is what makes me want to be alone.I don't hate being alone; but I've been alone for years and at times it does get annoying. It allows all sorts of nasty, negative, wicked thoughts to race through that brain,

Just putting my two cents here. Being alone can be very depressing... I am never alone and I always loved being alone even since childhood. I have four little children, a husband, pets and I would absolutely love to have a day alone with no phone or internet somewhere in the woods or at the beach... )) (dreaming...)
But I think the worst feeling is when you are surrounded by people, close people and yet still feel very much alone and lonely inside... That's when something has to be done. I wish I had more time to hang out here and talk to people, I love this forum and people here.
When I felt very lonely I did find some friends online to chat, random people from around the globe and it is amazing how different and similar at the same time we all can be.
Thank you for reading this and hope every one can find that perfect balance and peace inside out.

I've been in situations where I've been entirely alone in the wilderness for 3 months at a time, and I can guarantee -- being alone never gets old. I would live my entire life that way if I could. I was asked once, "Don't you get lonely out there?" and I answered, "How can you get lonely when there's no one around to make you feel that way?"
I would be afraid. Do you ever get afraid? I'm always afraid and I guess that's why I live with anxiety.

I'm terrified in cities and don't like to be in even a small city unless I'm there with someone who knows what they're doing, but the only thing I'm ever afraid of in the woods is the fact that my ADD means I have issues with spatial orientation, so it's easy for me to get lost. I have to be really careful about that.
I'll think of you next time I go hiking.

I don't get afraid in the city. I do in the woods. In the city, walk with your head up and like you could kick but look people in their face as you pass and your not the one the bad guy would want. In the woods, a lot of the people that like to live there are loners, that's kinda scary and the fact there aren't close neighbors to hear you and lots of places virtually untouched that a person could be dumped. Yep, I will take the city, with lots of people anytime.
