(weird question) Why is it that I feel lonely ?

Question

yet when I'm finally with my friends I tend to feel kind of disappointed - It's almost like I don't know why I missed them in the first place

And don't get me wrong - I don't think they're annoying or boring, I really do like most of them

I can do thing with them that I really enjoy - but at the end of the day I'm still dissatisfied, like I have no energy or like I don't even care

Or - I can talk about getting together for days and feel really excited - but when the day actually comes I don't even feel like going

I'm I'm in a group I feel like I'm surrounded by glass ( - I know, probably makes no sense), a bit isolated - even though they're not ignoring me or anything

Should being around people make me feel so drained of all my energy?

(I don't think the problem is in my friends)

Answer 2

It sounds like the circles you run with and not fulfilling you. That could mean that you need to re-evaluate who you hang with, but not necessarily. More likely you are needing to improve your spiritual life. I know it sounds blah. I was never a big one on church. Turns out i just needed to find the one that fed me. Try a few different churches until you feel you have found one that leaves you feeling spiritually fed. Thats step 1. Re-build your connection between you and your maker. Just try it before you dismiss it. Accomplish Step 1, the others will naturally follow.  

Answer 3

That's exactly how I am!  I guess the guy above just explained all: I guess I'm an introvert.  I get really tired easily by being around too many people for too long too, even if I'm doing something I really like, or being somewhere I really like being at.

Answer 4

They may be people who are just using you if you feel tired or used up when you leave them. Those aren't friends. Friends make you feel good about yourself and they never want you to do things you don't want to do.  

Answer 5

maybe you should go and spent time alone and chill out for a little and find yourself since its not ur friends you need too find you  

Answer 6

There's a simple answer to your question; you're an introvert. Being introverted doesn't mean you're shy or aloof, it just means you refuel differently. Extroverts get energy by being active and being around people. If an extrovert is inactive for too long, it can drain them and make them feel tired or lazy. We live in a world of mostly extroverts. Introverts, on the other hand, need alone time and can become exhausted or drained from too much social activity, even if they are enjoying themselves at a party or activity, they will still need a rest. Read "The Introvert Advantage." it will help you understand more.

Ha, that's how I am. I would suggest caffeine. a few cups of Coffey with soy milk usually does the trick. But, yeah, people tend to be draining.
