I understand exactly how you feel, I have trouble making and keeping friends. I live with my parents and am close to my mom. I wish I could contact some friends i had in high school, but it seems they are not interested in me now. You are not alone, plenty of other people feel lonely. I have never been married, don't have any children. How long have you been a Christian? my family and have gone to different churches over the years. we found one we like. we really ar not faithful about weekly church attendance every week, I wish we could get better at going to church more often. I have been lucky to hear good sermons, from this pastor and others at former churches. I grew up in a Christian home, have been a Christian since childhood. I have some problems, disabilities, I am like a child. I would like to be friends, I'd like to have friends online since I have trouble finding real life friends.

Don't worry, these feelings are natural. Jesus loves you and wants to be your friend.

So sorry to you feel so lonely. I know the feeling and I know how hard it is when you don't have anyone to share your feelings with, to cry on someones shoulder, to laugh with and just having a friend to count on. I don't have enough post to PM anyone but as soon as I do if you want to talk I will be more than happy to talk to you. God Bless you my friend I will be praying for you.

Hi friends. I am deeply saddened by some of the posts i read here. My heart aches for people who feel lonely. and i have felt lonely too, but try to remember that sometimes we may feel lonely, but we are never alone. God is always with us. And i believe that he puts people in our lives to help us when we most need it.

I would love to be a friend to anyone who needs it. I know I am always in need of a new friend.
Blessings everyone.

Thank you for your message. I have never been very good at making friends, even when I was a child, although in recent years i seem to be 'coming out my shell' a bit. I try to go to church every week when possilbe, otherwise it gets easier and easier each week to miss it and before you know it you are not going at all.

Have you tried to get in touch with the friends you had in school, they might be very glad to hear from you. I have sent a friend request too

Hello dreams and all, I know how its like to be lonely. I am trying to reach to many of you as possible. Christians or not, we are brothers and sisters but just of a different faith

Please do add me and drop me a PM if you feel lonely, I will get back to you as son as possible

Matthew 25:40(NIV)
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

I'm sorry you feel so alone :-( I've felt that way from time to time, but admit I am blessed with a handful of very close friends. I will be praying that you find some lasting and meaningful relationships very soon and that you begin to realize that even if you are "alone" in the world that you still have worth to God. He loves you and cares about you and hurts when you hurt. Keep your faith in him, even when it seems tough. God bless you and please PM me if you ever need to talk or vent privately.

For a long time I had a very small circle of friends. Always mostly the same people. But I came across the site meetup.com which is a site that has meetings in every city around the globe. Or you can start you own. Started going to some, and started running my own too. I've met tons and tons of people now. It's crazy. And their good friends too because we have things in common. So try that site, if you wanna find a fun way to meet people face to face in your area.

A recent popular email quotes as follows:

Concentrate on this Sentence
'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.' Something good will happen to you today; something that you have been waiting to hear.


There comes a point in your life when you realize:


Who matters,
Who never did,
Who won't anymore...
And who always will.
So, don't worry about people from your past,
There is a reason they did not make it to your future

Awww your post touched me. I'm sorry you are feeling so lonely. I know it sounds cliche but we all do go through bouts of loneliness sometimes. Sounds like you're in a bad bout of it right now. I will pray that you find a good friend soon.
