Weekends or being home alone
Permalink  
 

I never call if I'm out and about. But when I'm home alone on weekend, it's too much time to think and then at night I do get lonely. Especially being in my 30's, friends are married with kids, etc. I just feel like I missed the bus. I hope this doesn't sound too pathetic, I feel pathetic writing it lol, but I guess it's a reality of life. 

And it's hard to find others in my situation. I don't know how to find them! So it makes me feel left out. 

So how to not feel lonely, when I am alone? That is what I will think about and hopefully come up with an alternative action besides picking up the phone and spending x.99 per minute.

I'm definitely better when I'm busy and not sitting at home.  I have the same problem as you but I'm 20 years older than you. Most people are married.  And at my age, there aren't a ton of things to do that don't involve going to bars or drinking.  I try to get out and do things but I'm a single parent and have responsibilities and honestly, I'm tired!  At my age, I should have a man to stay home with, go for dinner and then home to watch a movie or something simple like that.  So boredom definitely is part of the problem.  It leads to thinking too much which leads to calling.

Exactly...being home alone, and THINKING....that can lead to calling. To hear something good.  Whe you're feeling so lonely.  My kids are grown, albeit one at home. But still.....when you thought you had something with someone, and then....eh...nothing....being home alone...on a weekend night...is a deffinate trigger,   How do we break this?!?!?!?    Have been good for two months now....but it is so tempting!

2 months?  I've been good for 21/2 hours LOL   I've been on a binge the last few days.  I have literally gone on Keen at least 3 or 4  times to call but end up seeing my favorites, most I've already talked to recently and then I say NO. I'm not going to call. They aren't going to tell me anything different.  I am so freaking addicted to calling.  It's horrible.

 Yeah.. I hear you it. It's like right on the edge of becoming a pity party I pick up the phone, because I want to step out of my reality :(

 Haha I literally am going to through a  party when I hit 2 months, I think it's been years (literally) since I went that long. If I go 2 weeks I'm impressed. One month feels like a year! And then I miss my "friends". That's a hard part too, you build connections with some readers!!

I'll start thinking about weekend night loneliness things to do, how we attack that one.

 You sound like me this past week! The favorites are there, and I see them, but I think ugh nothing has changed, but I STILL want the support, the communication, the chat. It's like a tiny way of connecting with the guy.

Maybe that's part of why we keep calling - it's our only form of communication or interaction with them now, even though it's through someone else.
