- This episode on belonging and how to feel like you belong explores our feeling of being isolated, lonely and alone. Teal Swan discusses how sometimes we feel that we only belong in places where we didn't wish we belonged. In other words, we either don’t feel we belong or we feel that we only belong where we don’t want to belong. Teal swan then walks us through healing this aspect within ourselves so that we can find true belonging.

My life is a constant struggle of wanting to go out , socialize and have fun with people while simultaneously wanting to avoid all human contact.
thats how it feels probably for a lot of us
Me too ...
Same
me too
Same!
Some wise words coming up in the comments. Isn't it strange that those of us who feel like we don't belong can see that we actually do belong in the group of people who feel like they don't belong, but we're all stuck out on the ends of branches waving in the breeze, unable to see each other? Isn't there a group for all us non-belongers?
Traci K Ummm.... Teal Tribe?
Traci K Yayy I want to be in that group
Hannah Thanks babe, you're welcome to become the second member! x
Yeah I've always connected with the non belongers a lot :D others would call them outsiders
Most of us don't join groups, which is why we are scapegoated.
"Golden Child" seems like me. I'm currently having an identity crisis at 30. I crave belonging, yet don't want to get close because I believe the "true" me is unacceptable.
Brian Ta woahhh this is so how I feel, exactly.
I am the ex scapegoat and still many people don't accept the true you. Many people are not willing to be around someone who is truly themselves they think you faking it or you think you better than them or something
"The only way to get true belonging is to be authentic and be yourself to yourself and to the world, and give up trying to fit in"
So if i am authentic and still don't belong what is the answer.
@DAClub-uf3br They call us Wanderers.
@@DAClub-uf3br I personally was holding on to the places/people I didn't belong because I did not believe (still working on that) that there would be a place where I would be welcomed with my whole authenticity. That I would always have to ''settle'' for partial belonging, because that was all I could get and all I was used to get, mostly at least. So instead of leaving and finding where I do belong, I stayed, and started to give up my authenticity again. Losing something when there does not seem to be a better thing coming, is just pain, so why would I leave to feel even more alone? Better something than nothing, was my unconscious belief. But by holding on I could no see the possibilities that were sometimes right in front of me, because I felt so deeply afraid. I even hurt myself in many ways because that fear was so deep. So that's what it was/ is for me.
*where there was false belonging is maybe a better way to express it.
@@madelief4300 I feel ya. But I am completely alone. I'm refusing to be that person that people think I am and want me to be *again*. The truth is, it wasnt me. And the second I tried to be my real self they told me get out of here. Not my first time. I am now completely alone. No interaction with humans for almost a year now. I prefer to be in pain alone. Then to be not myself again for the sake of belonging. Because from my experience there are people like me that no matter how much they'll try to ignore the truth they just can't for a long time, and it will come back and bite them in the ass. And it will be more painful then the pain of being alone.
Nothing belongs to anyone. EVERYTHING in the outside world is temporary and eventually we have to say goodbye to all of it. We don't even belong to our own bodies because thats temporary too. Don't waste your time belonging. Stay grounded in your soul in the present moment. Be who you really are.
“No matter what you do, you can’t not belong.” Wow. Powerful.
“You are understandable. And you are understandable to me.”
When I was younger I used to be the golden child because of the way my dad was but from two years I have started being my authentic self and now I am the scapegoat most of the time.
I'm sorry, I can totally understand ❤ I hope you'll find people who accept the truth of who you are with open arms, it wouldn't hurt so much then...to think of all the people who weren't able to do that, especially our parents
@@suhani6677 ❤️
“you can not see that other people have attachments to you”
now i’m crying thinking about all the people in my life that probably do actually care about me and love me but i’m too ashamed of myself to even see or believe it. i always feel like i have to choose between having myself and being loved by other people. i’ve been pulling myself away from people because i was exhausted of abandoning myself, and ever since i have felt that there’s no way anyone could possibly love me in the same way they used to when i was trying hard to win their love by being inauthentic. i struggle to believe that anyone is attached to me enough to even want to love the real me after they’ve known the inauthentic me for so long. becoming authentic feels like breaking that attachment. it feels like a rejection of the love i’ve already been given, because that love never felt real in the first place. is it real love if you’re not really known? i only feel loved to the dregree of which i am known, but maybe real love doesn’t require being known completely. maybe real love doesn’t “require” anything. i still want to be known, but maybe i can be known and not have to worry about losing anything because real love and belonging does not depend on knowledge. it doesn’t depend on me staying the same. it doesn’t depend on my self-concept at all. it’s not real love if it is only the ego that is loved. maybe there is more to me that people are attached to than that.
Crying with you. I feel you so much. You deserve to accept all the love!❤
no, this is called victim blaming. it's cruel and unhelpful. she's trying to make you think the real rejection and ostracism you've been showed is all in your head, and you just have to "try harder" or "put yourself out there more." In reality what you have to really do is change the bigotry and pack mindedness of the entire human race, or just offer the people rejecting and putting you down someone else to inflict their misplaced self loathing on.
I just wish I had friends to be spontaneous with, people who interact and hang out with me, who want to connect. I don't have it. I feel I need to search them out. Still, happy and grateful for life. Gugs from Brazil.
I feel this
That's how it was before cell phones. People would meet wherever and be like hey, what should we do? I don't know! Let's walk around randomly looking for other people!
Cell phones very quickly destroyed socializing.
@@rustyscrapperthat's really interesting, I was born in the 90s and never realized that
"... The questions in all our relationships should be:
How can I provide a sense of belonging to this person?
What would I say or do differently if I considered them to be a permanent part of me?"
Boom! Truthfire!!! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.
Thank you so much for this perspective.
I appreciate you Teal Swan.
It's rare to find someone so damn wise, Glad we have a thing called the internet. :)
I don't understand Why don't her videos have 1.3 billion views instead of 1.3k views. Its pure gold
They think she's a cultist
Truth hurts people to much 🤷♀️
I did not find my belonging in church but I did find it in AA. I don't agree with every aspect of the 12 step program but those are my people. My tribe. And I will always belong there. The sign on the door of my first meeting said "you never have to be alone again" and I never have been. Even if I wasn't an alcoholic I would go to EA (the "E" stands for emotions) because we all have feelings. None of us ever have to be alone again. With or without a 12 step program we all belong here. Loved the Teal winks too. Those are my favourite. ;)
ea lol thats a new one i havent heard yet

Agreed but its her giggles that slip out on occasion makes me laugh and adore her even more no matter the opinions of others. cheers and have a great day
Sharon Wiser message... hehe I love those giggles too. I figure if someone is being heckled that much they must be onto something REALLY good. And she handles it with honesty and integrity which just makes me love her more! Have a wonderful day!! :)
It's you who's doing the rocking, Bob! Always a treasure to find my people!
Wow I recently came out as gay after a long time of fighting it and resisting it. In 20 mins you have helped me clarify my feelings and recognize my I have felt a red to suppress or doubt my truth. Thank you ❤️
Ow wow that was 3 years ago.
Tomas JR :Thank you ;)
Good for you :)
You are beautiful and you remind me of my own beauty. So thanks for that Teal.
what I mean is - you remind me of my Self.

You are sweet and saw it's meaning in your first comment.

Thank you Sharon.
Raymond you are beautiful ❤️
This is the story of my life in one video. Not belonging...since I was a small child. Not being authentic to be accepted. Learning that, it's hard to unlearn it. But what happened the last few years is that something shifted in me and it literally hurts to be inauthentic, to pretend. Now it's a huge conflict within me because I feel like no one will accept me for who I am and I cannot pretend anymore because I wake up blurting out my truth, it's like an explosion, it cannot stay in anymore. So, as a result I've been isolating myself in a very extreme way. Now I'm looking to get out of this vicious circle.
I can totally relate
I grew up as an only child with a cold and busy single mother. I was barely touched or understood or interacted in my earliest years. I had hard time belonging anywhere. I spent most of time traveling around the world since I became adult and that made me feel like I didn't have to deal with this issue. but now I settled down and am trying to belong to a society. I feel like I became that 6 y.o child again who went to school for the first time.
I had to hold back tears for this one. I grew up in a cult (Jehovah's Witnesses) and this really describes what it's like. I tried so hard to fit in, but no matter how hard I tried, it wasn't good enough. People would say I was "bad association" and wouldn't want anything to do with me. I eventually convinced myself I was an evil person and tried finding "evil" people who would actually love me... Turns out they didn't love me either... Then I was left all alone and I nearly killed myself. I finally decided to separate from all these toxic people, including everyone I knew growing up. To this day, my cousins will not speak to me because I chose to leave their cult. I had to start from scratch in a world that was foreign and new to me. I'm still suffer from emotional trauma and identity issues to this day. I don't know if I will ever truly belong...
You will! There are goof people and communitys and love waiting for you. I know its been a year since you posted, I hope you are doing all right. Hang in there because by what you said this is probably your life's porpuse to find your belonging and embrace others who feel like you too.
❤
Being authentic is the only way you'll find your reflections
Don't ever give up on finding your Self and your Tribe.
It's really hard to start over all alone, when you lost everyone you thought loved you, realizing that all this time they were abusing you instead of loving. It feels like betrayal. You have to find your self again and new people who do accept you unconditionally. Even if often it's hard to believe they don't exist (in that case there is nothing to live for and you want to kill yourseld), there is always a little hope they do exist. You may consciously go for a scavenger hunt to find evidence for that. 😊 It's constantly up and down with this. I often wish I could just heal away that part of me that feel no belonging is ever possible, with completion process. But that is really pushing it away. I sometimes don't know how to be present with that part..to let it feel it belongs with me no matter what. It's screaming so hard and hurting, suffering in pain with no end. Poor little child. And I think being present with that is the real path of healing....
🧡
For all the people in the comments: we belong 👌 👍 💖
THAT MESSAGE WAS FUCKING BEAUTIFUL! DO YOUR THING TEAL! I LOVE YOU
Love what you said about "If it is possible for ostracization, disinclusion, or non-belonging to be of consequence of any type of behavior, there was no belonging to begin with." Very true, I needed to hear that of recent. Common theme throughout my life, people are assholes.
I totally understand Teal Swan's message and I love how she puts it together. It's as she stated at beginning... 'NOT BELONGING ... is .. a problem on this planet'
Generations move onward and what gets me is, adults pass their wounds to their children.
Children exposed to EGO WORLD by their immediate home life environment. Many broken parents, immature adults. 😳
Having right relationship with ourselves first,. Love - Belonging - Oneness. As adult becoming whole again, is a very big job but our soul is worth that much.
We are pure creation and need to discover our own beauty in that. There are no accidents in the heart of the Creator. You are loved. You are WANTED AND NEEDED because you exist!!
WE... 💖B💖E💖L💖O💖N💖G💖... to Mother Earth!! All we have, comes from her. The interior, exterior of our home, our food, clothes, etc. Let's take time to connect with her in nature and thank her. 🌼.... I Do...🌼
Upon our last breath, our body return to Earth. Our soul/spirit returns to Creator.
🙏🏻💞🌼✨🌄🕊️ Namaste 🙏🏻💗🌼🌟
This woman has a wisdom beyond her years. I like her straight forward manner, and find her very relatable, thank goodness no psycho babble.
So.. to feel belonging, you have to look for similarities with other people? Accept what you are and give up trying to fit in where you don't feel as though you're a match? I guess I'm always looking for the practical aspect of the subject, like what can I apply to my life. I've always felt like a lone wolf and most of the pain associated with belonging is really the futile effort of trying to belong, rather than just being comfortable as a standalone being in every crowd. Though I'm often intrigued by the way people with connections tend to act among themselves.
Very insightful Anton.
Maria Ashby Thanks! I didn't expect this many people to resonate with my rambling. Have a blessed day!
I always imagine they fall asleep with the television on, so they are too distracted to be confronted by their 'true' selves.
Anton R Yeah... The painful part is the process of trying to belong.
Wooow I finally got that after listening to it about 5 times when you said "if there is ostrizisation, dis-inclusion & non-belonging being a consequence there is no belonging in the first place!".
oh you're spot on with the false belonging with cults. I grew up in abusive family and it felt exactly like a cult. I was also in abusive friendships and relationships where it was turning out like a cult, where you get punished constantly because you think that's the price you have to pay to belong. You get material things but price is abuse, threats, punishment, guilt, fear and intimidation. You become afraid to leave because it breaks down your self worth so much that you start to believe no one will ever love you and you should be grateful that they do. There is no love, only a systematic abuse and breaking down one's soul. This talk really opened my eyes up thanks. you're right, I was searching for a sense of belonging but that wasn't even belonging at all.
Thank you teal swan I really love you and your laugh brings me alot of joy thank you for everything
I agree
love this golden child never wants to belong because it was disguised. sooo true
This concept was a lot to digest. I constantly feel like I don't belong, and after watching I feel like it has more to do with my bad habits than me not finding my tribe. I need to work on seeing the similarities between me and other people; not the differences. Oi, that's going to be a tough one to crack. Lol!!
This upgraded my life... once again. Thank you Teal, as always perfect timing. 👌
I love all of these beautiful comments for you Teal! You touch so many lives in so many amazing ways - thank you!!
And to all of you who have made negative videos and said such horrible things about Teal, shame on you. Mind your business. And remember what your momma taught you "if you can't say anything nice, don't say nothing at all". And listen to Teal completely, you WILL learn great things😊
I was born within a family who didnt accept me for who I was and wanted me to be like them and follow the crowd, when I was myself I felt rejected and frowned upon. I started thinking there was something really wrong with me and I dont know who I am anymore, I dont know how to behave socially because I feel akward. I go from rude and cold to needy and available. I've tried everything so I decided to isolate socially, avoid gatherings. When they say be yourself, I dont know who I am or how to be myself. I attract people who find faults in me and try to change me. I guess I gave up being who I really was while growing up because I saw ostritization as death itself. But what's worse than self rejection? If I ever have kids I will take them in and accept them for who they are because I know how it hurts.
I'm really sorry you had to go through this...i can totally relate. Something that helped me was journaling, just writing down what I felt and thought without the fear of it being judged or rejected or shamed upon, I've made it a practice to express my true thoughts and feelings for at least a few minutes everyday in the journal...and you can also look up to different philosophies and adopt or try on the ideas that you think would help you. Teal's also made a video on how to be authentic. Hopefully these things might be of help to you ❤
I have seen a few psychologists and read books of therapies and spirituality for the last 15 years. I have to say: you, teal swan, have the gift of truth. What you say pierces through useless and over elaborated theories and gets to the basics of what is. I don't know what background you have, I m guessing it s both spiritual and psychotherapeautic. Whatever it is, you rock. I hope I m not inflating your ego. But what is true is true. And you tell the truth.
belonging and love are basic human needs, but you don't need anything external to feel this. you can feel it straight from source of god, or your higher self, etc.
Teal, I've been feeling like an alien my entire life but even more so recently. Thanks so much for dropping this video. Perfect timing and explanation. 💜
That’s so genius “find what makes you similar” instead of looking for differences 🙌🏼🤗 oh and I felt that sentence where you said “we need love because we are love”
Uh I love all of your work. 👏🏼😍 Thank you so much for this.

wow I could've written this, I also just left a lot of people who thought were friends and family but turned out to be abusers, and I also feel like I am starting over all alone. Let's have faith and love ourselves and support ourselves through this journey, we can make it through!
That intro alone....damn. Hit me pretty hard. I truly wish anyone else watching this and relating, all the best.
to you is where i shall belong. I have been watching your videos for years now and you totally changed the way how I precive life. You mean a lot to me Teal! nice to see you still showing up.
This is one of the best videos I've ever seen. And trust me, I've seen many.
Oh man, this one made me cry... I am the golden child in this story and feel like there is something really wrong with me and people don't like me.
geez:(
Teal you are a Badass 💫
You have a gift Teal.........and thank you for sharing it with us.
One of the best. Videos a seeker could ever ask for. . Been a meditator for years but overlooked how I was isolating myself and pushing away people unknowingly;. Missing this basic thing I was secretly reinforcing the belief that I`m meant to be alone. I wish I had this video couple of years back before seeing beautiful relations collapsing due to not. Having a sense of belonging.
i completely agree. a lot of time i had been feeling isolated, and that caused me only depression. i should have been doing my spiritual practises, but when one is just alone all the time, it literally kills him..i wish people shared more wth each other, and i would like t live in some community
This might be my favorite Teal Swan video ever. Taking all this in is incredibly scary but I now have awareness of something I've been blind to and can make changes because of it. Thanks Teal :)
I love to listen to you, because you are so Gifted With Your Insight.
If you are still out there, thank you for this insight. You saved my life

If you are wanting or willing to provide a sense of attachment with another person, it also means you are operating from more of a positive self concept. If your self concept is low, you may not want attachment with people at all in your day to day or weekly etc life. Attachment requires an additional type of work that you are just not familiar with or may not want to expend as energy
I feel like I need to watch this over and over and over. Thankyou, Teal.
Teal, before I watched this video I was just writing about how everything we experience is a reflection in our own perception. So everything we experience is actually us because our perception of it is interior, though what we perceive is from an exterior input, our interior perception is what we experience. Sight, hearing, feeling. You know this well. But I thought it was very fitting that you mentioned that. We are empowered to bless and give rest to the perceptual experiences in us, since the experience belongs to us in the form of reflection, what we will for that reflection determines our experiences. In turn blessedness of our perception preceeds blessing that comes from us back to what we are perceiving. This is empowering because we can practice to have a greater perception of the external. You're smart.
Thank you Teal
I'm really sorry, I can totally understand and relate, those things have helped me immensely as well ❤
I used feel this way (actually still do a lot of the time). When my parents would say I was their favorite or that I was a good kid. I always though "It is only because I am quite and I do what ever you tell me to. Its because I don't argue. It's because I don't speak my truth in opposition to you. It is because I suppress my feeling, wants, needs, and desires. But you will never know. I am part of your 'easy life'". I was the easy kid.
I really don't like that I was.
Even at school I would have people say "I like you because you don't talk much"
To me people get closer and grow through overcoming their disagreements. By talking it out.
When people speak their truth they show their personality and let people know who they are.
So when people would tell me that I am their favorite because I remain silent. It was like an arrow to my heart. And it was reinforced because I then thought. Well, if I do start talking...then even through I don't have friends now. No one will want to talk to me.
I was a favorite because I never disagreed with people and I always did what they want. Now, I have try and figure out who I am. What I like. Not do things just because it will make another person happy. I have to allow myself to feel emotions AND express them (in a reasonable manner. Don't wanna hurt people out there). Because I used to deny myself the luxury of emotion for a long time and I didn't even realize it until now.
Now I find myself trying to make friends. I realize the reason I don't have any is because I never talk to people (and i'm also terrified of reject and people abandoning me...)
But anyways I've made a lot of step in the right direction.
If you read this...thanks for reading my random rambles.
THIS IS SO FUCKING POWERFUL. THIS VIDEO WAS MEANT FOR ME. THANK YOU TEAL, U R FUCKING AMAZING! GODDESSS
Your voice is mesmerising n fits your face a hundred percent. N the knowledge you impart is beyond words. God bless you .
After watching Teal's videos for maybe two years now, I finally bought her book The Completion Process, and it's great so far, even though there are things in it that I struggle to take in. To take in as things about life, not just abstract ideas or someone else's realities, but mine. But I don't let that stop me, nor should you. One of my mentors said that learning happens in cycles, like you learn everything about a thing in one level, and then you repeat everything and understand more about it... something like that. That why getting back to basics is a thing.
A very powerful, important truth that seems to remain hidden from the critical mass, thank you teal for articulating the pieces of the puzzle for me, so I can get the clarity I needed to me move forward from my life of feeling not good enough and shamed and unworthy of love.
Each time I stumble on one of this lady's videos, I learn something. Inevitably, I learn something. I appreciate this woman's existence.
The family bit was so raw for me, I did do anything to please my dad all the time, it is only the past few months I am finding my own self. Thanks for sharing ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
So so amazing Teal you're incredible. Thank you so much for sharing your videos for free, each one is life changing. Much love...💖💖💖
12:14 that’s like when I want to belong in certain groups of “the conscious community” but then my self concept tells me “I’m not good enough” yep...shame... DANG I’m literally doing this to myself and pushing people away you’re right ha! Okay I’ll do my best!
Teal, thank you. Healing in the realm of belonging takes a long time, and is a lot of work. Personally, in my younger years, I was raised within three families. With 12 brothers and sisters (many step), and 5 parents was challenging for development and growth. With the second family, I was the scapegoat. This information you provide does assist with all the other reading, and learning I have completed over many years. Your knowledge provides a better awareness. Best, B.
this makes sense on so many level"s for me 'for all of us ,so much wisdom she just explain'd me to a t ,thats exactly what I to my self ,amazing teacher right here .
This totally changed my perspective on things……the dynamics in my family, friends, and how i see myself. If you are shunned because you don’t conform….,,you never belonged in the first place. I definitely dont belong n my current dynamic.
I have very close friends who have taught me that to be disliked (for a time or moment) is not actually the end of the world. We have a foundation of love that can't be disrupted. On the surface there may be liking and disliking between us depending on the day, but I have learned to accept the concept of being disliked. Because I love myself, because my friends and family always love me. And to avoid being disliked at all cost means at some point being inauthentic. I'd rather be me and face the consequences
You're indivisible from this universe you live in, You're part of it whether you want to admit it or not, Whether you recognize it or not, There's nothing in this universe that does not belong to you and there's nothing in this universe that you don't belong to
-Teal swan.
Teal makes me feel like I'm a kid in class excited to see what new prop or imagine game she'll use to get me to learn.. 😃🤗 Fun!
Teal and your Team, thank you for your knowledge, mission and everything what you do 🤍🤍🤍
Thank you Teal! I love you! Thank you a lot! Your words have healed me many times! I wish you all the love and all the light! Thank you a lot! I wish all the love and all the light to all of us!
Teal you save my soul every time I turn to you - thank you
This video is going to change my life for the better, to break the cycle. Lot of work to do. Thank you so much!
Lol. Teal's physical demonstrations always get me. Cutting string, ripping paper in half "you can't take the paper out of paper". I don't know why but it makes me laugh!
i realised i dont belong. i click on the notifications - a video about belonging that helped me right away
When i sincerely have prayed for help this year teal has come out with the perfect video addressing my concerns. This is exactly the help I needed. I am elated. Thank you.
That was a very powerful strong message.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!! I have never felt like I belong, up until just recently. I finally found myself in a positive relationship and it’s taking a lot to change the narrative in my head. Teal, can you please do a video on negative speech and self talk?
i can never thank her enough
aboslutely brilliant guidance, thank you.
Hard to believe a beautiful girl like you felt lonely
dearest teal, thank you once again for making something so profound about myself clear to me. watching this video it just went 'click, click, click'. i'm afraid i'm gonna have to repeat myself here again: you are the clearest and most helpful psychologist out there! love you
I really needed this....I felt so isolated. You have reiterated the need to myself. Thank you!
Truly thank you from the bottom of my heart
Teal you're Fire!!! You go Deep you just know and lay out the real Problem!!!! love your Work
Ur the number 1 person I connect with teal, I've never felt such a connection (that sounds red flag'ish lol) what u say and what universal source tells me align to such depth. I'm sure u hear that all the time...that wud be a given xx
I have much love respect and trust in u. Thanku ❤
Yes Teal, you are so right.
It’s crazy how on point this is!!! I just realized that me scanning the people for differences is what makes me feel that I don’t belong.
I have never belonged anywhere. Thank you for this video.
Teal you came to me in my dream .. it was the first message from my subconscious .. it was very hard you came to me to rescue me after awakening I felt your soul embracing me .. I intended to attend your next workshop .. all my appreciation to you .. love you teal .. enas
13:36 my favorite part
By the nature of the fact that we exist, we belong.
OMG OMG OMG OMG I am SOOOO excited cause THIS video is only for ME :-) at least it feels like this cause my main struggle and sadness in life is exactly this topic: that I don't belong anywhere.
I've got to take time for this video. It's not one that I want to watch it while making something else at the same time. I really want to infuse it. And I am SO sure that in a way it will help me!! OMG I am SOOO glad that she has made THIS video!
Thank you so very much.
luticia yeah it's not for the other 22 thousand people that watched this episode, just you 😉
You think wrong, cause I share it with YOU, TOO !! :-)
yep teal is just amazeballs
I SO had this problem afew weeks ago...my only friend had some brain spasm n said she din want to be friends anymore. Ouch! I serendipitously ran across 'meetup' groups. Just type 'meetups near (your town)' into the search bar. I've gone to BBQ's, walking groups, meditation groups, a nice dinner party, concerts in the park and plan on a camping weekend. Also, pizza nights. An other good source is the parks n recreation guide. Lots of good stuff...usually costs $5 per time. Meetups are generally free.
This is SOOO great, Stacey! Your message made me really happy cause I'm so very glad that you didn't let yourself drop into a depression but took responsibility for yourself and action and now you 're getting to know so many new people and maybe one or two will be a real friend in the future. It makes me happy that you go out and do so many different stuffs!! Seriously, it makes me happy :-)
I live in Germany in a smaller town. There are some groups of people who get together once a month but that's it. And it's mostly going in a pub and drinking alcohol. This is not my thing.
There's a webpage where people of this town come together in order to take part at theater or a concert etc. But somehow I've never joined them. I'm longing to belong somewhere, to have a good friend like you used to have one. Meeting with strangers every time is just not the same. And I also find it boring cause it's always the same small talk and afterwards you say goodbye until next time when you meet again new strangers and start this superficial small talk again.
But I also know that I won't have any friends if I don't start to meet new people.
How is your friend doing now? Is she your friend again or does she still reject your friendship?
This made me cry. I felt every word. Thank you.
GOD how greatful I am for you and your divine brilliance!!! Thank you to infinity!!! XXXOOO
Sometimes I feel telling my truth to those that I 'don't belong with' drains my energy. I like to get outta there as fast as possible
Dammit. Well, that definitely explains why I can't fit in at the bar scene. Some days, it seems like I'm fitting in & most other day, I'm just there talking to no one & no one talking to me. I think they've pushed me away & because I'm thinking it, I'm effectively pushing them away. I'll need to try the tips mentioned in this video & turn this away. I've been doing this for years, so I wonder if it will be difficult to turn around. I've had belonging problems my entire life, but I also have hermits in my family line.
