or a complete stranger, if you need to get something off your chest, write it all down in a email, send it to me hun, i have been down deeper than most of you could imagine, i always give a honest opinion

I was about to say the same thing.

If you do need to talk to someone Wendy you are very welcome to pm me. I think most people get lonely at times, but I am lucky to have a husband that listens, but there are times when you need a little feedback, and my hubby love him is not the best at that.

do you keep a diary, you could write everything down in there. Give it a name and tell it how your feeling. xx

Wendy

You are a lovely, genuine, caring person. Feeling lonely in a crowd isn't something I'm a stranger to myself, even though I have a partner, and a few good friends. You are not alone my friend, it just feels like it sometimes.

You have had a really rubbishy few months...well more than a few months and eventually this can wear you down and make you feel low. You will feel better slowly and gradually my lovely...

I'll see you tomorrow xxxxx

Ed, that's a bit spooky...and a little touching

Trust is a funny thing - sometimes you just know its there and when you have it it is so precious.

Mums at school gates - always rung alarm bells with me. I used to keep my ear to the ground and my mouth tightly closed.

Keep your spirits up Wendy xx

Me too. I prefer to stand alone in the playground funnily enough

Me too. I am quite shy also (and have health problems) so do find it hard to meet new people. I tend to stick with very old friends who I don't see as often as I'd like but speak to most days.

Thank you for your lovely replies, texts, phone calls and emails

I don't feel as lonely

but you did make me cry as I read your messages of support!

I feel as if I have gained many friends with a lot of empathy.

Thank you

There's a reason for that... I'm willing to bet we've all been there... and tortoise people are like that.

I have to agree, the mums I stand with at the school have been my best friends for 17 yrs but the rest of them I avoid

I moved 150 miles from home and felt very lonely. It was my horse and the friends I met through my horse that got me through. Friend can come through common interrests. Keep going a door will open and one day you will realise you have left this blip in your life behind.
