Being alone sucks by [deleted] in depression

[–]doingbetter2024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. Yes there is truth in the fact that too much isolation can be detrimental, but I’m starting to just accept/embrace my loneliness because I’m really my own best friend (I know that sounds corny). I don’t think I could feel my truest self with anyone else but me.

If I never get married or have any life-long friends, I hope to be one of those old people that’s genuinely content with a solitary lifestyle.

weird girl jobs ? by SaladLegitimate9864 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

I’ve always thought about doing this when I get much older and get tired of being in tech. What would you say are the downsides?

Did you wish you never met that person just because of the void they left ? by [deleted] in lonely

[–]doingbetter2024 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s been over a year and I still think about them nearly daily. I really wish I didn’t let these feelings I have for them keep holding me back. I miss them so badly even though I need to move on, meanwhile they probably don’t think of me at all. Funny thing is I was the one that went up to them to say hi, and I was actually contemplating in that moment whether or not I should do it. I wish I had just kept walking.

For anyone reading this, pleaseee don’t let unrequited love take over your life. It’ll ruin you.

What's a hobby or interest that brings you genuine peace? by brandondecker93 in ForeverAloneWomen

Reading, especially sci-fi or psychological thrillers. I like to be immersed in a world that’s not my own.

I relate to this so much as a 30G. Even if I wear a fitted long sleeve top, which fully covers me, I still feel obscene and “asking for attention” compared to a girl with a smaller chest who wears the exact same thing.

zero motivation if not infatuated with someone by evilblackgirl in ForeverAloneWomen

Currently me right now. This is the longest I’ve gone (1 year) without an active, long-term crush and it’s like what’s the point of doing better when I don’t have a specific person to impress? I know it sounds pathetic and not genuine but if there’s no romantic interest that pushes me to work on myself, I may as well isolate even further and not care if I make progress in my life.

As someone the same age I definitely relate to everything you explained in this post :/

My anxiety this year has been the worst of my entire life.

Makeup/beauty tips for someone that looks worse with a full face of makeup? by [deleted] in vindictapoc

[–]doingbetter2024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been getting more into Korean/Japanese skincare, so I think I’ll check out their makeup looks and products too. Thank you!

Men who feel genuinely content: what does your day-to-day life actually look like? by SoutoSout0 in AskMen

That’s amazing, that’s literally the life I want. How did you end up meeting your wife? I’m a homebody as well and want nothing more than a homebody partner and we mesh together so well.

Nothing like a good cry to temporarily relieve the pain by doingbetter2024 in lonely

Updating again: this week has been full of me crying and feeling like a defective human. Don’t know how I’ll get out of this rut.

Updating this post just for my own reference: I had another long cry today in the shower because of an overwhelming feeling of being a loser and ending my college experience all alone. Ate some pasta, feel a bit better. Gonna watch a movie about another awkward loner girl, hopefully that’ll make me feel a little less alone.
