Even I as a senior citizen feel like this too even after all these years. It is said that assertiveness classes help maybe they do but part of me says perhaps that's the way I want to be.
However, I think if I had my time all over again I would try and get to grips with my shy introvert ways and Go for it!
We only have one life to live and what is the point of living with regret. And also think about this most of those folk who are chatting are probably just as shy but have really made and effort to get over their shyness.
One of the most introvert people as a youth was Richard Branson...now look at what he has achieved through determination. Maybe he is still lonely when he is in a crowd but he does not let it phase him does he!
No, how could one feel lonely at such a place..............
Yes; especially if the room is full of strangers; I'm a shy introvert with an extravert inside longing to get out.
Yes. It can actually make you feel worse because you are watching people connect with others while you are alone. The only thing worse than feeling empty is watch people not feel empty.
Many times, it doesn't help if one is shy and find it difficult to break the ice.
I feel like that all the time, I'm pretty shy, and large groups of people can really bring that out in me, especially if I don't know them all that well.
yep
i feel this way all the time & i'm used to it too
Yes I have felt like this too on and at the moment i feel like it often
not if you are with true friends you shouldn't
I think that a room full of people can be as empty as a room with no one in it.
It just depends who is in the room and if you really want to be there.
yh all the time :'(
people mix up alone and lonely
you can be lonely in a crowd
you can not be alone in a crowd
have a nice day
Sometimes if you are alone and you've no-one to speak to then it feels empty because every one's chatting away and you're not eavsdropping.
yes it doesn't matter how many people are around you it is how they connect with you personally.
I can even feel lonely when i'm with people i love, like my parents or boyfriend if something is troubling me that i can't talk about or if they simply don't understand
I think we all go through that feeling at some point in our lives. I once sat in a shopping mall in England. It was full of people shopping I was sitting in the restaurant area to eat. I had a big family normally 10 people plus in our household. Husband, children their friends, grandchildren, pets and more yet I sat there and felt terribly alone. How strange this feeling is when you have so much. I actually cried on that occasion. I do not know why. So I do know how you feel at that moment in time.
yeah all the time
anxiety disorder, for instance, can produce the feeling of "wanting" to be alone and by corralary, the feeling of not knowing anyone in the room.
Yeahh I have, it's a dead weird feeling..
yes, it happened to me. if everyone else knows eachother and i dont, i feel bad.
I text that to a friend a few days ago...I was at a party and I said in my message 'How, in a room full of people, do I still feel alone?'
