Do you ever feel alone in a room full of people?
Yup, at church ?
Why do you go to church?
@marga my niece sings and nephews play in a church band so I’ll go to support them and see them perform some times.
@MarlaPaine Oh, I see.
Every day. I've worked in this hospital for 3 years and my boss forgot about me
That's awful!
@valerina well if you look at it this way they forgot to fire me once so that worked out in my favor
Yes, particularly the more people there are and if I don't know a lot of them.
Always. I'm not good with large social gatherings. Especially with people I don't know. I'm not one for small talk much.
Not necessarily alone but an alien observer. Sent to take notes on a weird species
An Anthropologist on Mars...
I do all the time. Some times it is the best feeling, but then there are the times when it is the worst, most loneliest feeling.
Sometimes, it's usually time for me to leave when that happens.
All the time. I swear, humans are bloody herd animals, and here I am, thinking like a solitary cat.
Yep sometimes I do! I guess it depends on circumstances!
I feel especially, conspicuously alone in a room full of people. I'll avoid it if I can.
Home alone, with my dog, I feel right.
Sure, I feel alone when I arrive at a party or event and realize I know no one except the host.
My idea of a good time is finding someone funny and intelligent. Then we find a quiet spot to talk and laugh together.
It comes from joy in being alive, and talking to someone who isn't boring you to death. We are conspiring in an unspoken, momentary, twinkly: "I like you and you like me. Isn't it lovely?"
I feel that way all the time but most especially when I'm out of my element.
Most of the time. I pretty much like staying in my mind especially when I'm not with like minded people.
I used to feel like that, I am basically an introvert but, over the years I trained myself to not be, the fact is that most people in that room feel that way as well so, might as well mingle with them.
