I'm a loner, I have a girl and kids but not a single friend

I am in same boat

I am severely depressed and severe psychological problems from age 15...I have to give up very nice paying jobs,nice girls,almost no sex during entire youth,5 yr divorce case and no friends

very lonely and failed life


there is no hope left for me..all my friends have families or gf..i have none..

i stay alone and most probably die alone..

Play poker, after a while youll make friends and you might even make money

I'm sorry to hear that.

Her and I got back together.

But the problems remain.

And the idea of going home every night stresses me.

That's why I try to work over-time, to avoid being at home.

I love my kids and my wife.

But being told for years how I'm not doing enough for her, is just too much.

She's upset at the lack of money. But emotionally punishes me for working the hours I need to earn it.

I've tried taking her places and really loving on her but within 72 hours, it seems she can be screaming at me.

It's just so tough.

She laughs at me when I mention my feelings. But I'm supposed to meet her every waking need like she's royalty.

All my "friends" decided to post absolutely stupid crap in social media that was very clear to me it was time to distance myself from their liberal madness. I bid them a fond farewell.

I said, since you see NO problems supporting a agenda that will eventully make my law abiding family into criminals,
I see no problem than going separate ways.
Adios! Glad to see our friendship was worth it. Plus the whole
blaming- the Christians- thing went over like a lead baloon. That shocked me they would be THAT stupid. I always thought they were tolerant and peaceful. WRONG.
Their true feelings revealed...
unthinking unfeeling hate for people that had NOTHING to do with the shooting.
They even rebuked the prayers sent to them. Enough is enough.

I never minded being alone. I always liked the quiet time to reflect on life and my spirituality. When I was younger, I needed social interaction,however...now, I can stand alone confident in this life. I guess it changed from parties to prepping. I feel something bad is coming and I can't shake it...


I have my family my spiritual faith and that's absolutely the most 2 Important assets to have.

pls dont make fun of true posters

Sounds like you could be his twin, so sorry.

You are better off being a loner. Friends will stab you in the back, good friends will be courteous enough to stab you in the front!
People have and always will make problems 100% of the time.

yep. married with 2 step kids (who are awesome and great to be around) and 2 dogs. 3 "friends" who have now basically become text buddies and that's about it.

such is married life i guess.

Friends are the worst. Just someone else you have to worry about in life. Most of the friends I've had over the years complain incessantly and only come around when they need something.

My grandfather always said, "If I wanted God damn Friends I'd join the Rotary Club."

You don't have friends because you don't want them.

Trust me, if you had some new friends, you'd quickly find that you don't like them and pull away from them.

You always feel that people don't understand you and this causes you more stress than just not having them around.

If you want this to change, you have to rearrange your entire stance toward others. What do you need or want from them? What can you give? Can you take people as they are? Get honest with yourself about these answers.

This is exactly what marrage is. If you are not prepared to accept this role, or look negatively upon putting yourself last, then just do not get married.

Yeah, for a long time I practiced this put myself last bit.

And thought I was being some noble guy for doing so. I took pride in it.

But after 15 years of marriage and being told my wife and teen sons that it's not enough, while they lounge lizard, it's just too much.

I'm not even allowed to spend $100 on myself without it turning into an issue of was that fair or not to anyone else in the family.

Sort of understand how you feel. This world is mighty f***ed up. Don't want it to burn, but can't see any other outcome, also don't think it's so far off.

I dont even have a girl or keeeeds. Just me. All alone.

:sad-violin:

Loner here and loving ervery moment of it.
Friends are overrated and being alone is the best thing in life since the invention of sliced bread.
But then again, I am a happy camper being alone with myself and have never looked for friends.
Just accept it that in this life it maybe not ment for you to have friends.
If it bothers you then go out and search for friends, not online but in the real world.

Chip is totally right on this point.
The myth is better than the reality.

friends? Overrated drama

If you have male friends, they'll just want to tap the wife anyway, so what's the big deal?

Consider yourself lucky, friends and family are the first ones to screw you over.
I have one half-assed friend and that's to many.

At least you have a GF (How did you manage to get one btw?)

I thought this board was a loner group.

No one should reply to your comment just to make you feel at home.

Wow you've described me perfectly.
I have a wife, 3 kids, and 0 friends. Oddly enough, I've always been an easy person to get along with and am more than capable of making a ton of friends but choose not to.

Before I started working for myself I got along with everyone at work and I'm pretty sure a bunch of people considered me a friend although in my mind I always considered them as acquaintances.

Im 23, live with my grandparents, have a job, have a car. But I have no kids, no girlfriend or wife, and neither do I have any friends.

Woe is me.

Im 23 years young, no bills to pay, have a miserable job where I work like a fuckin mexican, no shit machines, or little mes vying for my attention, and friends SUCK. Oh and I forgot, no women seeking my attention or acceptance either.

Life is good. Carry on.

No but really, I enjoy living at grandmas house because it is low stress, and I can save my money for a home in the future. Im very thankfulnfor that. Also happy I even have a job, i started looking for another ome and thats when I realized how difficult it is to even find another job. Im probably not ready for a gf, and im certainly not ready for children, or marriage.

I work with diligence, smoke a little at the end of the day with granny, play a few video games, and keep to myself.

I dont believe in friendship, because I have been backstabbed one, two, three too many times.
people usually perceive me as a threat, thus I do not let anyone near my true self.

American society doesn't breed friendships. Just selfishness and corruption.

Join clubs or start a new hobby based on things you like doing such as

fishing
Cooking
Playing darts
Playing pool
Painting or drawing

It's great way to make new friends.
