Hello, I have a question for you guys, when you are around other people do you still feel lonely ? I am not sure why i feel like this, can you guys add your thoughts Thanks Michael PS: I am very outgoing and extroverted and yet I still feel this way
Sometimes. I feel depressed right now due to extreme stress at work which makes me feel lonely. But I usually keep mostly to myself anyway since I am introverted. Seems like being depressed makes me feel lonely even when I'm around other people.
The problem is I have a extremly extroveted personality and yet i talk to people and feel like they do not see me or I am misunderstood
Regardless of personality many of us struggle with this. However it's not something that comes up much as people are so adverse to telling how they're actually feeling. A while ago I claimed to my friends that I was struggling with the perception of "lack of respect" on their behalf. Their response was "well we'll respect you even less for saying that!". Give it time. Abstaining from masturbation (orgasm actually) is a great way to channel sexual energy to other aspects of your life. Over time you may feel calmer, more confident, less self conscious etc. This will come across in the way you present yourself to people and you will be more likely to exert a strong aura. This may change the way people behave around you. However this process takes time and self determination to abstain from masturbating.
Loneliness is an interesting phenomenon, not sure what to think about it. I came to like it, in a way, once I started regular meditation.
"Loneliness is an interesting phenomenon... I came to like it"! Really? Well, let me tell you: IT SUCKS! Loneliness corrodes self-respect and self-worth.
Well, this it happens to me not only with friends, also with girls. I mean, may be I could have sex with a girl, but knowing that the relationship that I have with her is only sex, it makes me feel lonely. Even today I have this feeling, but with the time and struggiling for your goals, this feeling disappears step by step. In the end, in my humble opinion, it's important to develop the self-esteem, and feel good with yourself, because in that case you'll express it to the outside and everything will go smoothly. Kind regards!
