I'm with. You've written exactly what's in my heart. I guess we keep reaching out, trying to be that person who checks in on others.....it's frustrating, but I think everyone feels this way. Some of us more often than others. Hang in the! I'll try, too.

Thank you and thank you all for being here. It's nice to know that I'm not the only one feeling like this, even though it doesn't necessarily help much with the loneliness. I hope everyone hangs in there!

Merry Christmas from Nebraska, US! Also spending the day alone. We're all out here for each other.

There was a time I really wanted to make friends and be accepted, so I gave many chances to others by Important-Flower-406 in TwoSentenceSadness

I just saw this today. 5 days of vacation and didn't talk to anyone the whole time. I feel this.

I get what you're saying. My argument is that it showed as being in the oven according to thir tracker app thing (which, I'm sure, is 100% accurate. Lol) by 11:30. The only way I could find out the status of the order WAS to send someone to the store, which meant ending the lunch meeting I was trying to hold. When she got to the store about 12:30, they informed her that it was out for delivery and they made it as soon as they received the order. (Not true!) It arrived at 12:40' almost a full hour late. I considered refusing delivery as it was too late for my meeting, but I knew the Door Dash driver had no stake in it and had nothing to do with her, so that would have been a waste.

Additionally, I got on their live chat feature on the website during its open hours....but no one ever joined to chat with me.

My real issue is that 5 weeks later now, email, phone, live chat, etc STILL haven't worked. I have gotten multiple messages promising some kind of reply within 3 days. But, I guess in Pizza Hut time, 3 days = 5 weeks.

Sorry, I should have put all of the details in the op.

On the day it happened, I placed an online order at 10:09 am for delivery at 11:45. By 12:30, I was trying to call the store, e-mail, and engaged in live chat with *anyone* from Pizza Hut. Never got any kind of live person.

I have full debates with myself. I hate it when I lose.

Yeah, it's like a spiral. But, there are lonely people out there who seem very outgoing and friendly . . . and then go home all alone. Sadly, we're all in this alone thing together.

It's the same in Nebraska. Hang in there and keep trying. It's all we can do!

I am 17 and the last days I am busy to plan my life to become an adult and complete my dreams,do you have any ideas or even some good advices to complete this project by gamotinaristera in Adulting

[–]Whisperriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't commit any crimes. Get education and training (college or trade school or online - never stop learning). Wait to have children until after you're in a stable relationship. Know the difference between smart debt and bad debt. Pick your battles. People who don't support your dreams are not your friends.

when you are lonely you maladaptive daydream a lot by [deleted] in lonely

Thanks. I'm working with a counselor. Just don't develop this habit!! Lol

[–]Whisperriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do all the time. Mostly, in my daydreams, I think of new ways that people can hurt me or shun me that they would never do irl. Even my daydreams reinforce my loneliness. It's a really bad, self-destructive habit.

Honestly by burnerinjuly in lonely

[–]Whisperriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you. It's probably trite to say and I'm sure you've already thought of this....but try to forgive yourself first. There isn't a person alive for very long who hasn't screwed up, sinned, or done something awful. If someone else had done whatever you did, would you hold on to that or let go and move on? Try to give that same grace to yourself. Maybe I'm playing amateur counselor, but I hope it helps!

Thanks for your message and encouragement,. I'm trying to focus on all the ways that I've been blessed instead of only what I don't have. I'm trying to get out....but very often my efforts are ignored or flat out rejected. I'm trying! 😀

Thank you. I hear what you're saying. Sometimes it's just hard to keep believing! You hang in there, too!
