I've felt way lonelier in some of the bad relationships I've been in than I have being single.<br /><br />I think the happier and more secure we are with ourselves, the less lonely we feel in general.<br /><br />Here's to all of us working on our s*@#. We're all works in progress.Churlitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05018288474865559384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11494946.post-68662049866500469872010-01-03T20:55:55.175-08:002010-01-03T20:55:55.175-08:00Tara: It definitely helps to read about how others...Tara: It definitely helps to read about how others have handled their problems and insecurities. Sometimes even reading blogs helps me in that regard. <br />And I for sure do not do enough to make connections to others. It is something to work on.<br /><br />FW: Well, yes, beauty is among the most subjective of attributes. I do try to remember that, thank you. And thanks for your kind words :-) 2010 might just be amazing.<br /><br />Sebastien: You make a really good point. Every human has the same basic needs, but yes, to very different degrees. Sometimes I feel extra high maintenance, but not always. Keeping physically and mentally active definitely helps. I suspect my time off added to my extreme introspection. <br />Happy Year of the Grizzly!

...Happy new year to you and your wonderful family!<br /><br />Hmmm, these are tricky things. I don't thing there is anything wrong with wanting and needing care, love, attention. It is quite natural, but everyone is different, some need it less, some need it more. I guess the trick is finding someone who is on the same emotional 'key' as you are.<br /><br />I know when I have had bad times with relationships and felt adrift, alone, sad, the best things for me have been exercise, weight lifting, biking, a group sports activity like basketball, and turning to my work (art!). Hobbies are a great idea though, although reading is not the best for me when I am feeling sad, stressed, or anxious, my mind tends to wander back to my thoughts. <br /><br />Hope this is the best grizzly bear year you've ever had!Sebastien Millonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06384643621878633512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11494946.post-60601129410297507722010-01-01T03:46:46.459-08:002010-01-01T03:46:46.459-08:00I agree, there's nothing pathetic in this post...I agree, there's nothing pathetic in this post at all. These same themes affect a lot of us. True beauty is something that is subjective and therefore impossible to define. You have a good attitude to life and a lot of self-awareness. I hope 2010 rocks for you!FWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02117308901968785109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11494946.post-11918572117909958412009-12-31T19:24:36.440-08:002009-12-31T19:24:36.440-08:00I have yet to run into someone so blind that they ...I have yet to run into someone so blind that they say they have nothing they need to improve about themselves. <br /><br />One of the things I like about book stores is that I can find the "Self Help" books and read about others who have the same worries and problems, and then they tell me how to fix what's going on in my head. It's not instant, or anything, but reading about it helps.<br /><br />Your post is in no way pathetic, it's full of deep thoughts that are normal to think about. <br /><br />I'm comfortable with my solitude most of the time, but there are times when I do get lonely. But at the same time I feel lonely, my laziness kicks in too, and I'd rather feel lonely than get up and do something about it. Lol. Go figure.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16103812856035857566noreply@blogger.com
