Hello, so I've been feeling this way for over a year and a half and its really getting to me. Every day I get a pit in my chest due to loneliness, I know I could feel better but I don't know how. I'm guessing no ones going to respond to this because I've already been ignored many times over. Its been especially rough this past week because my siblings and I went clothes shopping, I hate shopping as it is and clothes shopping is even higher on hating because it just reminds me of just how much of a freak build I have and how much I hate being a girl. The dress we got was nice but I just couldn't help but hate wearing it. I'm kind of uncomfortable in my own skin, I knowni shouldn't be, but what could I do about it? I also have a very hard time making friends because I have a very "interesting" personality, aka ima tomboy. Yes ik it sounds very pick me but I am and can't help it. I have a very hard time telling social ques, am just in general very shy, dont like talking about shoes/clothes or just whatever teenage girls talk about. I don't know what else to say I just need help desperately because life is becoming a meaningless and unsatisfactory and I'm starting to feel useless.

hey, I relate to some bit of what you mentioned. I've never felt like I was good at making friends, always felt lonely or unwanted in group setting. And now I'm just keeping to myself alot. I don't like interacting with people. honestly idk what to say it's just that whatever a random stranger says online is a one time thing and you tend to feel these things constantly. All I would say is that some things that can't be controlled maybe just need ignorance from your end. Like forcefully stop caring about some things so you're not constantly in your head about them. I mean idk what I'm saying honestly, ig what I'm trynna get at is you need to try to feel good just the way you are, irrespective of what society preferences are. Like maybe think, if it works, idk if it will, but be like 'fuck it man, whatever' and then sit back and watch a good series or eat something favorite of yours or just go to sleep idk. Do whatever. Doesn't sound like I've given u any concrete advice. But the 'fuck it, whatever' works sometimes. Try it ig.

You are not alone. I am also lonely and I don't know what to do about it either. But i guess if two lonely people are together, then maybe it won't be as lonely? My DMs are always open
