I once joined an "introverts group" on meetup and... it was really awful. They held the meeting at a noisy bar. Nobody knew anybody so it was awkward, and it was a crossover event with a larger social group so that group just sort of did their own thing while the rest of us watched. Like Via's story about going to a party and standing around awkwardly, except it was half of the people there. The music was so loud that we couldn't even do small talk.

I realised that we're almost always present but we've gotten too good at hiding. When I'm in an isle shopping for something, I'll leave or make myself near invisible so that I don't inconvenience anyone. It was only the other day that I realised the reason I dont see others like myself is that we all know how to blend in and will likely avoid each other without knowing. Most of my hobbies are independent, so when I do hang out with people sat around talking, I have nothing in common with them and nothing to add. It's like being ghosted in person which I acknowledge is my own fault for not just joining in but most of the time, I just dont agree with them.

I completely understand how you're feeling. It can be difficult to feel like you're part of a friend group but not really connecting with anyone on a deeper level. It's okay to feel this way and it's important to remember that not all friendships are meant to be lifelong. Perhaps it's time to evaluate whether these friendships are healthy and fulfilling for you. You might also want to try expanding your social circle and meeting new people who share your interests and values. Joining a club or community related to your hobbies or passions can be a great way to connect with like-minded people. Also, remember that it's okay to be alone sometimes. It's important to prioritize your own well-being and happiness. Don't be afraid to take some time for yourself, pursue your own interests, and focus on self-care.

Usually when we're lonely, we blame ourselves: "What I've done wrong?", "Am I really that unlikeable?", "Youth isn't as fun as everyone tells, I'm wasting these years". Well, I try to convince myself being alone is better in some ways: I'm independent, I get to know myself better, discover new hobbies and focus on studies. But still, sometimes I just can't hold back sadness when I see other people having so much fun with friends and having another person to share feelings with, while I have no one but myslef really 😕

It's great to hear that you've been able to grow and become more comfortable with spending time alone. Learning to enjoy your own company can be a valuable skill that can lead to greater independence, self-awareness, and self-confidence. Going to concerts or movie theaters alone may seem intimidating at first, but it can also be empowering and liberating. You get to choose how you spend your time and don't have to worry about pleasing anyone else. It's a great opportunity to focus on your own interests and passions, and to connect with others who share those interests. Remember, being alone doesn't mean you have to be lonely. Finding ways to cultivate a sense of joy and fulfillment in your own company can help you feel more confident and content, whether you're alone or with others.

That's an interesting perspective and a reminder of how intricate our bodies are. It's true that our bodies are made up of trillions of cells, each with their own unique functions and roles, all working together to keep us alive and healthy. While this is a fascinating biological fact, it's also important to remember that our emotional well-being matters as much as our physical health. Feeling lonely or disconnected from others can have negative impacts on our mental and emotional health. So while it's comforting to know that we have a whole ecosystem of cells inside our bodies, it's equally important to prioritize building connections and relationships with others to nourish our emotional well-being. Remember, seeking connection and support from others is a sign of strength and can lead to positive outcomes for our mental health.

I feel you, but just know there's plenty of neurodivergent folks out there. For me and my friend group, being neurodivergent is normal, this is our normal. You don't have to mimic the others, spend that energy looking for your own people. I honestly think neurotypicals are boring (no offense), they lack the spark I see in other neurodivergents, they behave very similarly and are pretty much all the same. Neurodivergent people come in so many types, I've never met 2 similar neurodivergent people. If I had the choice to be born normal, I wouldn't choose it no matter what. Being neurodivergent is lonely, but it's also awesome, it's great to see life so differently and fully explore stuff, to have such passion. Have you ever met a neurotypical who could speak for hours and hours (literally) about an interest? Neither have I. Don't focus on being lonely and neurodivergent, just focus on finding people like you. usually around 2 in 10 people are neurodivergent (if not more) so it's impossible you don't find some friends.

I can confirm that when you grow up with this trauma, as an adult, it really handicaps you in the “real world.” We need more awareness of this, and we need people to stop feeling bad about being this way. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU! You are your own unique being, and I wouldn’t change anything about you. Leave the trauma behind - of eating school lunches by yourself, of constantly comparing yourself to other people in your high school friend group - it does not define you (probably has only made you more beautiful on the inside, because you’ve learned how to have compassion for people who are struggling). Bring what you were into what you are now, and just shine like the beautiful you.

Here i am again sharing my trauma lol, i was bullied when i was in school and i was always alone. I used to have a big friend group when i was really young but that friend group started making fun of me from elementary school to hs etc. I never felt i truly belonged and i actually started copying their mannerisms and they way they existed just to fit in. I always wanted a best friend or a shoulder to cry on, but i didn't find it yet. I am not talking about family, but friends. Now in college i have like 2 friends? And they told me that i am very unapproachable, they way that sit, stare and everything. At first i got sad because i really wanted to look fun and bubbly and i tried too hard to do so that my social battery started slipping through my hands and i was exhausted and sad and angry. I just came to the conclusion that idc if i look unapproachable, if someone wants to talk to me they can, even more if they know me. I feel like an alien and i always watch people having fun, talking yk chit chatting and i trully don't know how to do it. I always try to be more of everything which leads to just creating a fake personality of mine, that's why i feel like an imposter, because I don't know if they would like the real me and not the one i was always presenting. I'm trying to be myself and the closer i come to my true colours the more comfortable i feel with my own company. I don't say I don't want friends or anything but at this moment i want to be with me and find people who treat me kindly and with love, not people who just tolerate me and they show it .

Hey Via, this is a long post so bear with me. I went through a very similar situation as you did in terms of isolation, etc... I'm 23, I was very isolated my whole life despite being a mix of introvert and extrovert. I had some "friends" here and there but no one really stuck around. A considerable amount of time was spent where I was questioning my self worth - wondering if I was fundamentally "different" than everyone else which did manifest itself into anger later on. Lots of walking around alone, feeling lost, wanting to join with others, comparing myself to people on social media (I'm guilty of this). Basically I understand you 100%. There's nothing wrong with us. What it is, is that we were pushed into isolation - and that isolation manifested itself into our growth. The only way to fix that, like you said is to be yourself and just keep meeting with people. That's it. Hope you found this helpful 🙏

Thank you for sharing your experience. It's unfortunate that you have also faced isolation and questioning of self-worth.

Your perspective is helpful and serves as a reminder that we are not alone in our struggles. Keep staying true to yourself and seeking connections that bring positivity and fulfillment to your life.

I can understand how frustrating and disheartening it can be to feel like you don't fit into what society considers "normal." It's not easy to watch others do things you wish you could do and feel like you're missing out. Remember that your dreams and desires are valid, no matter how big or small they may seem to others. Keep trying to find your place and pursue the things that bring you joy and fulfillment. It may take time, but with resilience and self-belief, you can create a life that feels meaningful and true to you. Don't give up on yourself, and keep searching for a sense of belonging. You deserve to find happiness and connections that are truly fulfilling.

I have never resonated with a video more than this one, in the past couple of years especially I've never felt so lonely. I'm someone that connects with others better one on one, groups have never really worked out for me - I'm usually left out of the loop & just can't seem to click in group situations, I always end up keeping to myself. It's just so mentally & emotionally draining to even just have a light convo with someone & need days alone to recharge my social battery. I'm still trying my best to be comfortable in my own company, of course its hard but it gets better :)

I wish I had a friend like you. I'm also an introvert and it has been really hard for me to fit in anywhere. It feels like I'm annoying people. They never come talk to me. But I've realized that maybe having 1 real friend is so much better than having an actual friend group.
@Sophia.sunsun11 ай бұрын
. Remember that it's not about the quantity of friends, but the quality of the connections you have. Having one true friend who accepts and understands you can be incredibly meaningful and fulfilling. It's about finding someone who appreciates you for who you are, even if that means being more introverted. Don't worry about trying to fit into a friend group; focus on nurturing the relationships that bring you genuine happiness and support. You deserve to have a friend who values and appreciates you just as you are.

I loved this video because I resonated so well with it. I’m a quiet, shy, introverted black kid from Boston but went to school in a predominantly white town on the south shore. All my life I felt like “the outcast”. I never really had the hottest things, kept up with trends, or had a solid friend group. Now that I’m in college, the pressure of trying to fit isn’t as present but sometimes it still lingers. It’s weird because I don’t like being lonely and think it would be nice just to have friends I can call or hang out with but at the same time, I love my solitude and I realize being alone is okay. Social media really encourages that pressure of loneliness and trying to fit in. I found that cutting it out helps especially with self improvement.

Have been going through this since I was 16, it's terrible and isolating. My last year of high school was horrible, loneliness took a huge toll onto me that I isolated myself and talked few words a day, never had any friend groups in my class and felt out of place at times, couldn't even come up to someone due to my social anxiety. I'm currently in university and oh boy it's even far worse, it's utterly isolating and lonely, even more difficult to find someone to talk to, I'm one year in and have barely talked to anyone and haven't made a single friend. I don't know how to work in groups anymore and too scared to even reply to messages to the point I wait for hours to find the courage to reply. I feel like I am wasting my youth away, when I was told that it will be fun years of my life, which was a big lie. I wish there was more groups and communities to join and find somebody, but those are unfortunately are very scarce. It's comforting to see that I'm not the only one going through this...

I have 0 friends, except for online ones, who I still barely talk to. I never see family members because I can’t leave my house due to severe anxiety, which leads to full blown panic attacks. It’s the absolute worst. Whenever I try to explain to someone it’s like they don’t get it at all. I wish I could just go to school and have friends like a normal person, but that’s not me and I’m ashamed of that everyday!

babes i feel u, i was never homeschooled but i never really had friends at all growing up. i was bullied over stupid stuff, like my name, my glasses, my clothes, my interests, etc. so most people never wanted to be associated with me, and even those few who did occasionally talk to me didn't stick around long. trust me, i have never fit in and i already know i never will lol. but over time, i've learned to look at that as a strength. it's a strength to be different and not just 'fit in' with everybody else. being unique is our power, it's not at all a weakness. and don't worry too much about missed experiences, because everyday is a chance to experience something new. it doesn't matter if you're on your own or not, personally i love going on little adventures alone and trying new things by myself. don't let not having friends stop you from living your best life. you can do whatever you want!! you don't have to have friends to have a good time. realizing that is what really made my life easier. i wish you well on your journey, and i hope someday you'll know that being able to thrive on your own is truly a superpower!!

I used to be like this too, I think I have an undiagnosed neurodivergent condition, when I was in middle school other kids would call me weird and bully me. I had (and still have to some degree) the lowest self esteem imaginable, I couldn't look in the mirror even when I had to brush my hair. The only way I could stand out was to make a fool out of myself, so that's what I was doing to get some attention even if it was at the cost of my dignity. Highschool I was very depressed, didn't talk to anyone, managed to make like 1 or 2 friends. But at 17 something clicked, it was as if I had enough of it and wanted some change. I knew that people wouldn't approach me, so I went out of my comfort zone and started talking to new people, being as extroverted as possible, and it worked. I developed my sense of humor and kindness in the years prior, so making friends was easy. I now have tons of friends, and my close inner circle is around 5 people besides me. I can easily go talk to somebody, and I don't take it personally anymore. Talking to my friends made me realize that a lot of people just don't take initiative, they may see someone and think they're very cool but they still won't approach that person. Out of the dozens of people I know I'm the only one who does it, so it made me think that it's not actually me who was at fault. I wasn't too ugly, too lame, too whatever. It's just that people lack initiative and are afraid of approaching first. So don't take it personally, there's nothing wrong with you, and I'm well aware I'm a happy case that was able to change. I still suffer from depression, and I highly suggest getting therapy if possible. If not keep in mind it's not YOU that makes people not approach you, it's other people not taking initiative to do so. I assure you there's been lots of people in your life that you met who thought you were cool af and never approached. And normal is subjective, my close friends are also neurodivergent, and for us this is the normal. Just find your normal, don't try to be something you're not, I assure you there's people just like you who you'd get along with greatly.

We have to normalize that some of us are really struggling to make real connections. The society stigmatizes loners too much and makes us think it's a personal problem but there are many factors that contribute to a person being almost or actually friendless, such as they enjoying solitude, friends moving away or growing apart for future pursuit, or just discovery of incompatibility to certain aspects with current friends. I almost broke up with my only friend group the beginning of this year and now still trying to form a new friend group. But my ex friends have spread rumors about me within our bigger mutual circle and that definitely has affected how some perceive my character. Now I only have 3 friends i talk to individually. Still trying 😅

I feel this so much. I'm 26 now. I've always been introverted and shy, it's difficult for me to strike up and maintain conversations. The thing is, I do usually have friend groups and I even have a bestfriend. Despite that, I just know I'm not a priority in anyone's life, I know our values etc don't exactly match. But since I'm older I have noticed that it's one in a million that you'll find someone that matches you and your values 100% and most people just make sacrifices and learn to like others despite the differences. Anyhow, point is I also do feel lonely that my state of relationships are this way. And I genuinely feel like it will always be like this because I know myself.

I know exactly where you're coming from! At 9 years old I went to an all white school (I'm Filipina) and felt so ugly. Kids would comment negativities about my nose, my huge lips, eyes, and color. They literally called me ugly N...word. I was filled with self loathing. This went on for a few years until I moved away. Took me decades to heal myself through self-help books. Now that I'm 50, I've learned to embrace my uniqueness. Somewhere along the way, the features I once hated about myself are now considered attractive! Go figure! What I'm trying to say is embrace your uniqueness. Act confident even if you're not. You'll notice people will gravitate your way. Most important thing you can do is self love. Self acceptance will set you free from wanting validation from others. As you get older, validations from others doesn't matter as much. By the way, you are beautiful! Keep telling yourself that!

I didn't have any real friends in high school, I lost my friend group that already made me feel trapped so I don't really care about them but it still hurts that I'm all by myself in a city far away from my family. I'm keeping myself occupied, training every day, trying to learn language, basically anything to avoid the fact that I'm lonely. It's almost like I've given up the idea that I'm compatible with people, although on the internet I see many like minded people. Seeing that other people feel similarly to me gives me hope that my life has the potential to change.

Thank you for making this video. Truly amazed by the comment section! Makes me feel less lonely so that you everyone ! Personally, I have grown up shy and introverted with very strict parents. Although I was not considered "ugly", I have always felt that it was hard for me to form meaningful friendships. I am slightly awkward and nervous in social settings and I hated myself for it. Just the other day I hung out with my closest coworkers and felt so out of place. The only thing that went through my mind were things like " I just wanna go home and be with my dog" or" If I drink more i wont feel time go by"... It is so exhausting yet I still crave for a close bond with someone. I also despise social or group events... I am much better hanging out with someone one on one. What I can say is take the time to get to know yourselves and what your boundaries are and if people cannot respect them , then let them go. If you keep hanging out with such individuals you will simply build up resentment (aka negative energy) inside! Learn to accept yourself and determine your strengths. Practice self- validation ; what I have started doing is writing down one thing that I did that I am proud of during my day in my journal before bed every night. You will in time acknowledge yourself more and more and will n:)

i’m literally gonna cry because this finally explains what i’ve been going through my entire life and i feel relieved that other people could relate with me. being a hijabi girl in america is not the easiest, especially in highschool. it doesn’t help that i go to a predominantly white school. but everybody i know even the other muslim kids have their own friend groups. they’re social, they’re fun, they’re cool. i’m a sophomore in highschool and this entire year i’ve been friend group hopping. i also know individual people like i say hi to them in the halls and i talk to them in class but they don’t reciprocate the same energy i give them so this entire school year i’ve been hoping to find “the right ones.” a few days ago i realized i don’t need to find the right ones. i don’t need to have friends. if these people really actually cared about me and gave a damn about me, they would come up to me and say hi. yet none of them do. i’m not gonna chase after them like i have been for the past two years. starting junior year in the fall, im doing me. i’ll make friends but i won’t be reliant on them bc i’m not gonna risk getting my heart broken like i have been with the last 5 friend groups i’ve been in.

I’ve had social anxiety most of my life yet I was always fortunate to have friends around in some way. People kept wanting to “adopt” me I guess. But I never felt like I truly belonged in groups. It always felt like my friends didn’t get me and would often say so. As I gotten older and worked on lowering my social anxiety, I knew exactly what to do to fit in different groups. And my long time friends and I came to understand each other a lot better. That said I still always felt a bit different. It’s like everyone interests and way of thinking was still fundamentally different. Even though I can appear to be like everyone else at a party and my friends started to act more like me, it still didn’t feel quite the same. That’s when I realized I feel that this is something internal I’m always gonna feel to some degree. And yea I’m always going to be a bit different and now I think that’s great. Fitting in at parties or with friend groups is a nice feeling. But it is not as fulfilling as you think if you don’t genuinely love the people you’re with. So just be you and focus on the people you know are good for you. They dont have to get you, they just have to care and be willing to try.

My experiences in high school and college were a lot like yours, but reversed. I had a friend group in high school that I didn't feel like I belonged in because they were all wrapped up in their own relationship drama, but in college I didn't regularly hang out with anyone. That feeling of not belonging really sticks with you - for most of my twenties I held on to this belief that everybody else only tolerated me out of obligation or politeness, and that if I did something "wrong" or stood out too much then they would realize that I didn't belong and hate me or reject me. I still struggle with being afraid to express myself or speak my mind; I got so used to being quiet and not speaking that it became my identity.

Last year people from my highschool aranged this meeting so we could get to know eachother better .We went to this park and I just sat down next to a tree, watching kids talk, but I had no idea how to do that, I was too scared. It is comforting to know that I'm not the only one who's felt this way

When you're both shy and introvert it's really hard to be in a group of people and its more comfortable to be alone eventho it can be awkward sometimes. I really enjoyed being alone at home but when going outside sometimes I do wish I have 1 or 2 friend to hang out with cause I have anxiety in public & I don't want to stand out.

Your videos are so relatable, I'm actually autistic, and I relate so bad when you talk about trying to fit in and also trying to be fine by yourself and be independent but also how it gets lonely sometimes... I really agree with your advice in the end, just be yourself bc it's still better to not have friends than to force yourself to be something you aren't in order to have company

I have watched your video twice, bc sometimes I feel lonely in my own room, which I’m supposed to feel alone, but not lonely. I’m an ambivert I love talking to people, but I also like my own space. Ty for telling me ur story.

The "friend group" thing is so relatable… I used to have an all girls friend group when I was in school and it was the best time of my life - but there was also the drama and that was part of the reason why it ended. Now I‘m in college and I don‘t have a friend group anymore. It does get lonely tbh and I get jealous of people who have that :( I feel like I‘ve gotten even more picky about the people I befriend. Also, I genuinely enjoy my own company. I feel like ever since I left school and started college, the "weird" side of me has been showing more and more. I just care less about what people think. In school I was so self conscious about literally everything all the time. But I also fit in better back then. Because I tried harder I guess. Idk. Just felt like dumping this here :,) Thanks for the video anyways!!

This is so me , i am literally going through what you've felt , i am studying in last year of high school in Belgium and i have no friends, because i was born in nepal and they were born here , so i dont fit in , your video is really helpful and i am shocked that we people in the comments and you have so many things in common. Now what i do is just be in comfy space and accept my loneliness, and nowadays its less painful than before

When I was in middle school, I used to do this, and I really wanted to blend in strongly with any group of friends. So, I did things I regret now, and it's a horrible feeling, especially when you realize that these actions were somewhat embarrassing and childish. I needed someone to tell me that it's okay to be alone without friends, and I couldn't also get into relationships because I'm Muslim (I love being Muslim, please don't misunderstand me). After those actions, I somehow managed to make long-lasting friends, but I also felt a bit uncomfortable as if I didn't fit in with them and wasn't like them (they were and still are nice to me, it wasn't entirely their problem). I also realized that I'm better off on my own, just like that. I decided not to force myself to join another group or try to grab someone's attention. It was great; I noticed that I was getting to know myself again and became more understanding of myself. Of course, I get a bit crazy sometimes, and if someone says something or talks to me nicely, there's still something inside me that says, "They seem like a good person, I want to get to know them and be friends," or "That was a pleasant conversation; maybe we should talk again sometime." But I realize that it's a false voice that will lead me to more problems in the future. I tell myself, "What if it ends up like every time I got a friend and ended up alone again, I won't be okay." Then, I stop myself from delving into the conversation, personal details, exchanging numbers, and such. I suffered for many years from some hurtful friendships, so with the knowledge that not everyone is the same, I try to strongly close my door because I know I am fragile and very sensitive. I love and attach to people quickly. I'll leave my story here :>

so real, the video appear to me with KZfaq recommendations, I'm in school, and honestly, I am alone most of the time, I feel like, I should change, be more extroverted, talkative, to fit in, but at the same time, there's emptiness and I feel like I don't "match" with those people or be a part of it, especially at school, I'm trying to focus more on studying and being with myself, but it's not hard to think about those things sometimes...

Wow, this video has opened my eyes. I've been struggling a lot in my teenage years and early adulthood with this same situation. I thought I just had low self esteem in the past but even when I felt good about myself I wouldn't ever want to put myself out there. Like I wouldn't really comment on things online or in person cause I felt so different or like my opinion didn't matter, like I was some alien. I used to be alone a lot too because of it. I didn't really pin point what it was until I watched this.

I grew up living with my grandparents and mom and her siblings. As a 29 year old now, I relate most to people my parents age or older. I was an only child but I blended in almost like a sibling to my mom and her siblings? Anyway now I see it as such a blessing. I adore my grandparents, and I am similar to them and I don’t fit in.

I started entertaining that I’m neurodivergent, high functioning autistic. Would explain a lot for me, but yea this video speaks nothing but facts. I also know though I’m “different”, I also hold aspects\views that I wish humanity held. There’s something unique about me,that makes not fitting in worth it at times. It’s lonely at times, but I learned to love my a attributes and see my strengths and advantages.

hi Via, I just wanted to say I even though we are no doubt very different I really related with much of what you spoke about. In particular what you said about being alone and deciding that going on social media shouldnt be a source of fear because there is nothing to lose really resonated with me. I was inspired to do something small, just a post on a small facebook group for small business, but it got a ton of responses and I was encouraged to continue, start making reels and vlogs and even write a book. It was a really needed boost and I am starting to work on developing it. Thanks for the inspiration!

I so relate to this video. Thank you for being so honest and raw. I had a bad day today and just typed in "I'm sad and lonely" and your video popped up. Thank you for making me feel less isolated. I do have friends - but the depressing thing is - I'm the one who puts in all the effort. I hardly ever get approached to do something or go out to lunch, etc. I'm always having to approach people. It's doubly depressing when I approach friends for some activity and they're like, "I'm so busy this week and next week, etc..." and I'm sitting here with no social activities on my calendar.

really appreciate you being so candid. i sometimes find it really hard to put into words how i feel, and i end up thinking whether they’re even valid. what you’ve shared in this video in a way validated how i feel at times. also i was one of the kids that didn’t get to watch the cool shows back in primary school, because my grandma had to get her fill of foreign soap operas. also, the amount of “quirky” editing is perfect 🤪

“People talk of “social outcasts.” The words apparently denote the miserable losers of the world, the vicious ones, but I feel as though I have been a “social outcast” from the moment I was born” from osamu dazai’s ‘no longer human’ stood out to me so much and the knowledge that i am not alone in this is comforting bc yes it might not be necessary to belong but it also gets lonely which everyone ignores :/ thank you for this entry!

Feeling lonely and craving wanting to be in a friend group, but then when you find a group, you’ve been so socially isolated that it’s hard for you to remember how to socialize again is something I deal with a lot.

Feeling like you never fit in just hurts. All my life I've been called an "oreo", so I felt like no matter who I speak with, I'm never gonna relate to them because I'm a black girl who "acts white". Since college, I've been trying so hard to belong when deep down I know people didn't care nor wanted me there. I went to thearpy over this and cried numerous times when my thoughts get overwhelming. I'm so ashamed to say that I genuinely think people would like me better if I were white, and for some dark reason I think it's true. I don't know if I'll ever overcome this feeling, but it's nice to know that I'm not alone in this funk.

I've never had a real friend in all my 27 years of living on this planet. It's always been me, myself, and I 🥲 I've grown to not give a fuck anymore cause I'm the only person that's gonna make myself happy by the actions that I do for myself and as long as I have my momma and God I'm happy. Plus I know I'm good ass person so I'm very proud of myself there's just days that are harder than others but you get used to being alone in a good way. Also surround yourself with good vibes when you feel alone, don't give in to the negative of loneliness ✨️

A video has never described my life so well. I have a habit of not being able to maintain friendships just bcuz idrk how to show affection or just not enough energy to match them. And this has led me to being alone pretty much a lot of the time. Your video really points out all the things I couldn’t admit to myself a few months ago. But recently, from my experience, I’ve really came close to God by reading the Bible and praying and I realized I don’t feel so lonely anymore. It made me realize how I can’t force to belong somewhere just as you said in the video. Instead, I’m just going with the flow that God is taking me to and trying to better myself by being productive and not dwelling on how lonely i may seem. I also want everybody to know that there IS a God watching all of us and will be with us through the ends of the earth.
