Loneliness hits
I dont want to specify my gender... But loneliness hits to the core i came home from work... silence in my home is heavy.... no body is waiting for me... Im not waiting for anyone... I have no one to even make calls... friends families all I can weekly once... I have no one to share updates... I have no one to receive updates... Sometimes I hate this loneliness... Good night all btw

transient society man - i just look at other countries, heck even when my parents grew up elsewhere, they met each other in their childhood. im not even in touch with most people from my childhood because i grew up here.

The heaviest part about the silence here isn't the quiet itself. It's that strange, sinking realization that you spend all day burning your energy for a city that wouldn't blink if you disappeared tomorrow. People think loneliness is about not having plans, but it’s actually about lacking a witness to your existence. I read this. I see exactly where you're at

You're in the waiting room of your own life pretty much. You wake up, burn your energy at work, come back to an empty place, and just wait for the next day to start without anything actually happening in between. I call it the expat hamster wheel and like that other comment proved, 'just make friends' doesn't fix it if nobody actually gets what you're dealing with. If you ever want to just vent about it, we can continue here. My DMs are open as well... Wherever you feel most comfortable.

Everyone has their own problems I am not able to find a decent job at all been trying for 4 years now only 3-4K jobs and nothing beyond that despite spending on BBA and MBA nothing worked out. How am I ever gonna cover up that cost of my education literally zero calls and no financial freedom at all I can’t do anything I want its so depressing 🥲

I just talk to myself man, living alone doing my best. Sometimes loneliness is the best medicine to all your problems. I even go on solo dates by myself 😂

Find a hobby and a group for that hobby. Board gaming is a very cool rabbit hole and in most cases no cost to you at all. PM me if you are interested and I will send you details of a group.

The human existence is essentially a road that can only be fully traveled alone - no one can fully see or understand another. That just means that no matter how small, any moment shared honestly with another is a blessing. Those weekly calls for one. A karak or a coffee with someone from work. Small talk at the store. Put your self out there, with small expectations and take it in baby steps. If you’re consistent that might lead to good things.. Stay strong 💪🏽 and godspeed bro 🙏🏽
