Yes and I have realized that thing and connection I was searching for in someone else, I had to seek it within myself. So many nights I have wanted to go out for some companionship but It's that old saying "when you least expect it, expect it".
Your posts are articulate. You sound like someone I would love to hang out with! Lol. Spend time with friends, hobbies, join groups, church or whatever you can! I am sure you are pretty terrific just being you. Then all of a sudden when you really come to a place where you are fulfilled within yourself you can be apart of a relationship. I was always looking for someone to fill something missing for me. I now know, what that loneliness was really about.
