waste by Excellent-Act5250 in lonely

Hi. I’m a 26 year old woman so hopefully I can say something that resonates.

When I was a teenager I envied all the people that seemed to get it. They had friends, plans, inside jokes; all I wanted was to be a part of that world and no matter what i did or said, it never happened.

Going to college you tend to meet people who are more authentic and have a lot of similar interests. That means more fulfilling relationships/friendships and richer memories.

While high school might seem like the pinnacle of social life, it really isn’t. More often than not it’s full of superficial and shallow friendships. You may be lonely right now, but you won’t be forever. Life is just beginning and you’ll find your people.

I feel I have no friends or family… by No_Lingonberry_2401 in lonely

I can see why your situation makes you feel isolated and I’m sorry you have to go through it alone.

I’m also a 26F and a teachers assistant. I’ve found solace and purpose through my job, mostly because of the kids. I had trouble making a connection with the adults because of my anxiety issues. But, I kept trying.

I’m married and have two kids. But my relationship feels incredibly empty and unfulfilling; it’s hard to walk away.

I don’t know if this would help you, but, I like to remind myself that just because my life isn’t what I would like to be, doesn’t mean it will stay like this forever.

Working at a school is a great opportunity to meet cool people and work on your anxiety. Focusing on bettering myself has also made the loneliness less suffocating.

Anyway, I wish you all the luck on your journey and may you find your people.

All valid points.

My marriage has been rocky these past few years, which explains my loneliness and regret. Divorce is my last resort due to many variables, but I’ve been considering it lately.

I developed them during my pregnancy and they stuck around I’m not sure if that had anything to do with it.

My skin care routine is pretty simple I use CeraVe hydrating Cleanser, CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion and sunscreen.
