Yeah, I know the feeling very well. That your not connecting to people, and they to you. I found it eased if I had a soulmate, someone I thought understood me in the crowd, but that's only really happened once. Rest of the time I think I'm a boring, plain wench, lacking in wit or empathy and just a little less attractive than the ugliest person in the room and wonder why people ever tolerate my presence :)
((hugs)) I am the loudest, chatty, attention-hog that I know and I get VERY lonely sometimes, which feels sort of weird.
I was just thinking about you because when I gossip about people in general and your name comes up, people always smile :-) Well I smile 'cos I associate you with mad things..like having the sickest sense of humour ever, Jenni smiles because of your intelligence and get-up-and-go amongst other things, Jules cos of your wit and geekyness...the list goes on.... You are just the kind of person that everyone likes, but for wildly differing reasons!!
I don't know what I'm trying to say exactly. But you rock. If you are around this weekend and want to do film/coffee, let's try to organise something???
I get in at 16:36 on Thursday and my train goes back on Saturday at 16:27. I will probably be waiting in Starbucks or summat for Nina to turn up on Thursday. If you like you can meet me then and we can decide what to do with the other days.
I have a really easy tendency to emotionally withdraw and become numbed to everyone/thing.
But it passes. Look outside the window its so sunny its trying so HARD to be summer! Go outside and feel the sun on your face and close your eyes and just focus on nothing else. Feel specail cos all your friends think you are!
*hugs* Sorry to hear you're not feeling so great. I can't really do the usual 'Let me know if you want some company' thing as it's not very likely to solve your problem. Plus, I appear to have the lergy and that's likely to make you feel worse.
The only thing I can recommend is Some Quality Time Alone, where you plan out stuff to help you get to know yourself as Choice Company, as opposed to Forced Company....
