I have spent many holidays alone myself. It does not feel so good when it happens. I feel like I have broken a record by one person who has spent the most holidays alone. It doesn't get easier and better with time. It looks like I will spend Thanksgiving and Christmas alone again (naturally!).
Thanksgiving alone is not that bad for me. But I always feel sadness whenever I cook that dinner and eat alone. Yes, I do the turkey, stuffing, and all those things myself! I wouldn't know anyone to invite because everyone I know has family. I have spent some holidays with others, but I didn't like it at all. I felt awkward being in a family setting that was not mine. Also, my family has split up.
We'll just have to bear with the holidays alone. Since it's early, maybe a Christmas miracle will happen. Who knows?
