I think you are lucky to have your friends, coupled or not, close by. Right now, I wouldn't mind being a fifth wheel. lol

The worse times are when you feel lonely while you are in a room full people.

I am soo sorry to hear that. I moved to be with someone also..It didn't work out. However, I make friends very easily and they have become just like my extended family.
This is an awesome site..I hope that you connect with others on here and make many friends.
Friends are always there no matter what..It may not be physically..Technology is a wonderful thing..there is no reason to feel alone..

When life comes crashing down and you think there's no hope,look to your friends to bring you out from the darkness and into the light.

The friends I've made here have wiped my tears, patted me on the head and listened to fears. They've come to my rescue emotionally and have not betrayed me. I have friends in real time and have a good time with them. But I'm still amazed at the online connections and their compassion and friendship. Even when we don't agree on a subject or might step on each others toes.

But yes sitting here home alone in a house that wasn't suppose to be empty by now, can be very lonely. I wish each of us who desire to find what or who we are looking for be they friend, partner or just a listener whatever ya need I pray we each find it. I know I've found much of that in my friends here. Thanks yall!

I tend not to be afraid of asking questions. Might as well ask them rather than wonder what their answers will be.

waxnrope · 06-12-2010, 08:48 AM

I just read Lady Wu's post ... this is my first time viewing this thread ... then I read the following post. WTF? Such a disconnect for me. It is confusing. Do we not read/see what we post before posting? Or is it a way of dealing with the pain of another - to render them invisible? This is so sad to me ... just saying.

LadyRain · 11-08-2010, 05:49 PM

I am moving to Kalamazoo next summer. Can anyone tell me if there is any kind of queer community there/ I am coming from Mass so I know I may be in for a culture shock!!

Lady_Wu · 11-11-2010, 06:36 PM

i'm beginning to wonder if i should not move to michegan. all these people in the same boat as i! WV, however , is too cold for me, michegan would probably be WAY too cold! i've always found ann arbor nice, though.
Lady_Wu, starved for contact w/people

Strappie · 02-28-2010, 11:39 AM

The one thing I tell myself about long distance relationships is. If and when you decide to move, don't move directly in with each other. Try and find a place where you can at least date for 6 months. Being able to see that person once in awhile is still the honeymoon stage and well honestly the first 6 month even year is the honeymoon stage. Things are always still cute and fun. People don't show their true colors right away.

Talking on the phone is "not" enough to know who they are and going to visit on wknds or a few days is fun, but do you really get to know them?

I'm sorry that things didn't work out for anyone that has move clear across the US or even just to another city for the one they love. This will only make you stronger and wiser next time!!

Hell yeah !!!!

Strappie · 02-28-2010, 11:51 AM

To be alone I think is a test to ourselves...

If we can't be by ourselves how the hell will we be able to be with someone else! Those times we are alone are the times we need to reflect and think about ourselves how things in our lives have changed. I always seem to find the reasons as to why I wasn't meant to be with that person! Then I also figure out what it is I did wrong and the things I need to change to get ready for my life partner.

and it was for the best..... for both of us.. heh.

I am happy to hear that someone else has risked it all for love! I am sorry it didn't work out for you either and would never wish that on anyone but it makes me feel less of a fool.

When everything fell apart, believe me I was on the phone with my friends all the time, (just ask Verizon) and they all gave me what I needed, love and support. I have made new friends in the city and here. I am impressed at the level of support so many of you give, not just to me, but to each other on a daily basis. It is amazing what a kind word can do, even from someone you have never met. It has the power to make someones day better than it was before.

There are times when I feel sorry for myself and wonder why, but over the years I have learned that it is part of life to feel lonely at times and that it is OK. For me, it has allowed me to value the closeness and warmth of a friend or partner that much more! I enjoy the time we spend together and look forward to the next.
