there are times in your life when being alone becomes the normality. it's so hard to meet people when you don't feel any connection to anyone, but the loneliness gets worse when you stop trying. maybe you've convinced yourself that you enjoy your solitude. you think that it's just the way it is because maybe there is something wrong with you or maybe you're just meant to be alone. but believe me when i say that you need to feel connected, even if it's something little like smiling with a stranger. the worst thing you can do is convince yourself that you're naturally alone or you simply don't belong, because there are people out there who share your interests and thoughts, who wish at night to have a friend like you, who would love and care about you unconditionally if they ever met you. be open to new people because you never know how much they could change your life.
