Unwanted longing for companionship

Deleted User

First, no negative, cynical or put-down comments, please.

For the most part, I am accustomed to my own company and just keeping myself busy to pass the time, but sometimes there is a sort of longing for a significant other, though I have accepted I wouldn't have the right stuff to make it happen (money, own vehicle, job, social connections, etc.) and I ignore and quash those feelings by keeping busy.

  • I have a real problem with the whole human connection thing, I've never got it, but strangely I somehow miss something I've never had. I think it's a natural feeling of wanting to belong.

    I don't have friends, I have people I know (this includes family). If I wasn't married (I still don't know how this happened) I feel I'd be alone.

    My psychologist suggested that I join a group or club to make possible friends as they may have similar interests but it just doesn't appeal.
