i think christmas is the absolute worst. usually family logistic crap forces me to spend christmas away from my sweetie when i'm dating someone, but even when we're physically apart, it's easier to go home for the holidays when a special someone's just a phone call away. without that, the holidays can feel kinda bleak, especially when you have a, uh..."colorful" family such as mine and you could use the escape valve of a phone call to yer sweetie. nutty

Christmas does suck as a time to be alone. I had to work this last Christmas. I thought it wouldn't be too bad, but boy did it ever suck. confused

actually, working on christmas was something i could handle, at least when i lived in new york. the east village was really beautiful on christmas, and believe it or not, all the restaurants and shops are open on christmas! so one year, i stayed home and had christmas with my family over the phone early in the morning, worked, then went shopping and had dinner at an italian restaurant with some friends that evening. it was really wonderful.

i don't think i'd like it so much here in chicago on christmas without some semblance of family. i spent thanksgiving in chicago away from family my first year here with nobody except for my ex, and it was pretty bleak. ALL the restaurants in my part of the city were closed. that's when i learned chicago may be a big city, but it's far different than new york. when the holidays come around in chicago, you go home to your family. nod

I work in the medical records department at a hospital. There were so many "death histories" coming through that day that it was very depressing. neutral

Now THAT sounds like my kind of Xmas. I hate Xmas.


bah humbug.


As for being alone, If you mean serious relationships, I'm perpetually alone. That's just me, that's the way I am. I can't imagine trying to even live with another person at this point. Sure, once in a while I think it might be nice to have sweetie to cuddle with, but there are so many good things about being single. At the end of the day, you've got to answer to yourself, first.

i worked at a community center, so i had to deal with homeless people and folks who didn't have any family to go home to. it was sad, but it felt good to help those people and be there for them. plus i loved my co-workers so much, it almost felt like i was with family.

Amen to that! Call me crazy, but I like being single and not having anybody to answer to.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

It's never a fun feeling to be alone. Especially when you feel you're trying NOT to. But I think that, in some respects, loneliness -- as much as it sucks -- gives us a chance to reflect and retool, even if we don't want to.

Fall is a great time of year. There are a lot of festivals, homecomings, pleasant days and holidays, and if you're rollin' solo you always wish you had someone to share them with. But hey, if you're alone for whatever reason, that's the politics baby. You need to audible at the line of scrimmage. Change the plan. Call another play. Go to more gatherings with friends and family. Or enjoy a nice day, event, movie, game, etc. on your own. It hurts -- I know, I'm an expert -- but being alone isn't the end of the world. In any event, you never know who you might stumble across. Just enjoy the time you have.

By the way, I'm talking to myself as much as I'm talking to you. Can you tell? wink

I doubt there would be a specific time of the year where I would feel more alone....Yes, it would be wonderful to have that someone special next to me when Christmas or New Years came around...but it would be just as wonderful to have someone special next to me on April 23rd or October 12th. rose Everyday is celebratory in that sense...

I have much love within my life now...from a beautiful daughter heart to a loving family... smile...to even my ex-wife and I still talking on the phone and enjoy conversations together. *smile*...I can drive an hour or so and have dinner with Muse and Supa.. smile...or see if or when Sweeny or AzureStarr can come and visit.. rose...or fly halfway around the world and let Ocean show me the Gold Coast.. wink kotc...I’m thankful and feel lucky for what I do have...and when the time is right for me to have more...I will. nod

I hate it and there is nothing that says I have to like it!

This isn't orgish but it is Karenish so take it as that.... Last year I disdained the loneliness and busying myself with parties and people didn't quail that. However, I have felt the Lord wanting to get closer to me.... Reminding me I wasn't alone..... I insisted that man doesn't live by spirit alone.... After all it is he who started the Adam and Eve gig.. I insisted he comply then I would meet him all the way..... As per usual he reminded me he isn't about to start doing things my way... but that he loves me.
A friend looked at me and said Karen ya know why he doesn't want to do it your way? BECAUSE HE IS SMARTER THEN YOU..... lol

I think it is time I give him a shot... If I knew so much about the life running business I would have arrived by now.... Maybe there is more... Wait... I know there is more... this holiday insead of feeling sorry for myself I am going to give it to him...

All and all I know how you feel... deeply! hug

NPP, I feel your pain. Sometimes it hits you, "Hey, I'm single. How nice it would be to have someone here. Why don't I have someone here? Is it me? What's wrong?". The answer is, nothing's wrong with you.

Why someone else cannot see your precious heart and the true colours is a mystery to me! On the other hand, it could just be a transition period.

Don't despair, you're not alone. The time will come...
