Feeling alone in a group

I was invited to a BBQ. I knew some people there but not everyone.  I had a few one to one conversations. I sat by myself and ate some food. A few people came & spoke to me but I just felt like I was keeping them away from others.  I left after 1.5 hours. I felt more alone among people then I do at home alone.

It makes me wonder if I should bother again but I also have moments where I feel horribly alone at home. I dont have anyone there just for me.

  • It is difficult going somewhere alone. I have been that someone feeling awkward. The place I regularly go now I have got to know some lovely people. Although I usually have my husband with me now, I have the confidence to go there alone when necessary. It is also a place where others go alone. I wonder if there is a group locally that meets linked to an interest you have.
