I got depressed and felt pralized. I broke up with my ex-girlfriend (whom I loved dearly), and remained alone in my apartment. I thought I can start again, but just couldn't fake a smile, eat or sleep. I know what you mean and how you feel. What realy saved me is that one day on the beach. I saw the open sky, the fresh air, the endless waves washing the shore, I felt humble by these natural powers and felt like a child. I needed to feel comfort, warmth, cozyness and safe. Then I was able to move on.<br />So, It isn't too much to ask for.Bobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-664072820627094533.post-59845783743669148642009-07-31T14:16:35.075-04:002009-07-31T14:16:35.075-04:00Don't loose faith!

As a fellow single ...No, it isn't a lot to ask. As a fellow single person living here in NYC since 1998, I have felt the same way many times, but as the old saying goes, don't look for it because sooner or later it will come to you when you least expect it. Remember all things happen for a reason. So although you don't have a loved one to share those personal things that matter to you, you still are not really lonely in the classic sense. You have good friends, acquaintances, roommates and especially family members who care and look out for you.<br /> I know by personal experience myself, since I was unemployed for five straight years after being an attorney for 14 years and then my marriage ended. But now I have been working as a paralegal for a Manhattan lawfirm for the past 10 years and last year, I finally have met a nice girl who I am currently dating and going out with. So don't lose the faith and keep on fighting the good fight!Alan's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16857263807866336409noreply@blogger.com
