It’s Nice to Have Friends

I can’t show this video here, so if you’re interested, please click on the photo (and skip the first ad).

I’ve been seeing articles that say we’re having a loneliness epidemic nowadays. That hasn’t been true for me. I was often lonely when I was younger, but I haven’t been lonely in years even though I spend most of my time alone. That would no doubt change if something happens to Andy, and I know I would be lonely if I lost my connections through the internet. I would also feel lonely if I had to spend a lot of my time with people with interests different from me.

What about you?

  1. Yes, the world has become a lonely place.

    God bless.

    …some of us enjoy alone time.

    It would take all day to write a complete answer to that…I do like some alone time, but there can be too much of a good thing.

  4. I can’t say I’m lonely and I do have my husband. But I also think I spend too much time alone. Only I can change that.

    Being an ‘only’ child, yes. I used to feel lonely, but thankfully out-grew it and somewhere along the way became my own best friend.
    Some of my loneliest moments actually came at my last workplace — surrounded by people with whom I’d little in common (and in a couple of cases didn’t like very much).

  6. Those two pals are adorable. We really value our blogging friendships too, they are cherished.

    My life is very busy right now. Great photo.

  8. My next Wednesday’s post is half about loneliness and what brought it on. It’s comforting to know I’m not the only one. Didn’t know its epidemic level, though.

    I did not know you are alone most of the time! As an only child, I was used to amusing and occupying myself, so I never get bored. Lonely at times, not usually.
