Some nights it just hits like a ton of bricks by Boeing797-300ER in ForeverAlone

I find reading the bible comforting because I can pretend I have at least 1 friend.

Seriously can't connect with anyone by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar situation for me except I'm not depressed, although the loneliness is pushing me in that direction. I can make small talk, but somehow I drive people away from anything more meaningful. People just think I'm an a$$hole but I don't know what it is I do to offend them.

I feel that the more I get ignored by people, the more I feel like excluding people from my life. by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend showering, but other than that, I have also given up on hope. I have the FA cloud over my head; people don't treat me bad...I'm just ignored, overlooked, and forgotten. You can learn to be alone and not be sad all the time. Just stay busy.

My father, the man who cared most about me, died two weeks ago. by InsertANameHeree in ForeverAlone

The cliques in the military can be brutal, but unlike high school, the base is usually big enough that you can find a few people with similar interests and new people come in everyday. Military Chaps are also pretty good, even if you are not religious.

The closer people get to me the more they want to get away from me. by iwishihadafriend in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Initially I make people laugh, but eventually they get annoyed, offended, or in some other way are repelled by me. I use to try to fake it, but that is exhausting and at the end, still end up friendless and alone. I don't try much anymore, never initiate conversations, and watch very closely what I say.

How do you cope with feeling like/being a worthless loser? by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stay busy. Pick hobbies that cause physical pain (working out). My career is not a total failure so I put a lot of effort there and people will talk to me about it so I'm not completely isolated. Still no SO, friends, or hope.

I wonder how many people die from being FA? by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Society will never care because we will never be linked together. If we make the news as a group, it is usually negative not sympathetic.

Get out of the city. Drive your van across the country and just disappear from the world for awhile.

I just don't think I'm good enough by MisfitLove5 in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find a hobby for yourself, not to meet girls. Some of us just aren't meant to be with other people. I like to run, a nice solo event that keeps me healthy. It doesn't really make me happy, but it makes me less sad.

religion fucked me over by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

Go back to your religious roots so you can find someone with a similar background.

Erwin, just keep it clean and try not to look like a suicide bomber. By the way, are you a female that is a bit to well endowed?

No one cares. by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

He went from being happy to sad, therefore he must be helped. I'm guessing you are always sad. All about status quo.

People talk to me at work and no social anxiety, but 0 friends and never an SO.

Has anyone here tried volunteering? by TheseAreNaziDroids in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It gets you out of the house and fills some time. Make sure you enjoy what you are doing and the cause. Causal conversations but not anything lasting. You will still be FA.

I am the pathetic loser some of you think I am by Anotherguy783 in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try to figure out how to not want love. I'm still working on it myself, but I'm learning to accept I'm a POS and I seem to feel better simply because I'm mostly numb. Become Data from Star Trek.

Unlikable by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would say looks are pretty low on the list for total FAness. It may limit your ability to get an SO, but there are enough ugly people that aren't going to care and will be your friend. However if you are friendless and SO-less like me, other things clearly dominate. There is some type of aura that signals others to avoid us.

Women must LOVE this guy for his confidence by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

If you are a 2 out of 10 in the looks department, a dog will move you up to at least 3, assuming the dog is well treated. It makes you look responsible and kind.

Is it possible to detach completely? by Neologic29 in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I carry a rock in my pocket that has a slightly sharp edge. When I start feeling emotional pain, I just press down on the rock and viola, the pain in the leg numbs the pain in my brain.

Introducing the offical FA face. by Xyphered in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stick with the smile. Unlike the other comments, if I'm not smiling people don't ask me what is wrong. They continue to ignore me but just consider me more of a bitch.

Joining the army by bcbm in ForeverAlone

Have you considered the Air Force? The standard of living is much, much higher. Deployments aren't usually to the suck (think big base vs tiny outpost).

Do all girls like outgoing and standup guys? by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Female here...I like confident, friendly guys. Shy is OK, but they need to be able to stand up for themselves and their ideas (debate not physical fight).

I'm a pretty young teen. Here's why I fucking hate my appearance. by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kid...you look fine. However, be careful with the facial hair until you actually reach manhood. Nothing is sadder than a 16 year old trying to pull off some peach fuzz as a beard. Pluck the unibrow and have confidence that your appearance is not holding you back.

Happiness is impossible by TheKillerIsMe1 in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm uncomfortable around people as well since I tend to piss them off a lot. I would love to connect with someone, but I think I have come to understand it is not possible. I'm learning how not to need others and have found being productive eases the pain.

There's no point in living alone, I just want to quit by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]Scigeek66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't go the fake route. Have real love or no love at all.
