Good evening everyone.

I'm a frequent reader (of several forums) and a very infrequent poster. I don't expect any replies, and don't really have any advice to ask for. I am feeling very lonely today, and sad. To the point that I'm crying. Ugh That's not fun. It's the weekend, and I should be enjoying my weekend before another soul-crushing work-week.

This loneliness came out of the blue, caught me quite off guard. Sure, I've been single for a few years now. But I am busy with work, and I have two daughters (25 and 20, the youngest away on the West Coast at university). I don't know why it hit so hard today.

Thanks for letting me post here. I really don't have anyone to talk to about this. It would be too awkward for my friends, as they are all married and would not understand.

Sorry you are feeling lonely, but you've come to the right place. Lots of conversations to be had and friends to be made. Talk as much as you need, we're listening! Hugs.

Hi, I understand your lonliness; I have been alone for 16 years; the best we can do is reach out to others, join a group,do things that we enjoy. If you would like to talk you can pm me. xoxo
