I don't know if anyone means being alone as I mean it. I read several posts where some people said they are alone, but then they said they have a boyfriend/girlfriend, they have just one friend, or they have just family. For me being alone means being absolutely alone. Living alone. No friends. No family. I have a diagnostic procedure coming soon, and I'm thinking to cancel it because I don't know anyone to come with me, and it's necessary to have a company!! I know I put myself in this situation, but I wonder if it could've been different with all my experiences and tendencies!!
