On this Friday evening, who else is spending it home alone, if you're willing to admit it like I am.

I spend every night alone, Friday is just another day and I'm fine with that. Maybe one day I will meet the right man but I'm not holding my breath. I am usually too tired after work to do anything anyway.

@MARDUK Yes they are! Ain't nobody got time for that! ??

I've been alone a long time . I'm fine with it. Friday nights out tend to be a little too noisy and busy. Don't care for crowds. Finished a book and watched a movie. Tonight is hockey night . Go Bolts!

What's to admit?

Well, my teenage daughter lives with me. So I'm not really alone. And I have to work all weekend.

I don't know about Friday? I have a great time whenever it comes along. Get out of the Channel and into the stream that wherever you are you can always have an enjoyable time.

Why don't WE always make sure we look after each other and keep us in our hearts? If one of us is alone make sure there is at least someone who cares. You know distance is not as big a thing as time and we are only ever less than 24 hours apart wherever we are? So heads up, shoulders back and smile you have a huge big family! (Oh and best bit..no one will interrupt you on the loo!)

My thoughts are if you are on this page/forum and know yourself a little you are probably aware of being more fond of your own company than tolerating, even suffering, company of others whom you would prefer to be without. Being alone is not the same as being lonely as you are probably aware. There is a saying which sounds kind of cliched that suggests that being alone is not the worst thing; the worst thing is being surrounded by people who make you feel more alone.

On this search for whatever, self discovery?, I had to be told when you are feeling down, speak to someone, face to face, on the phone etc. I had a feeling of 'whinging or complaining' which made me feel guilty, so I avoided it. I realised with assistance, it was a cognitive distortion as a consequence of an anxiety thing that had happened as, what I thought, was my fault, but actually had occured when I was in adolescence, but was not old enough to recognise or deal with. I chastise myself, even now, for taking so long to resolve or come to grips with it. A close friend had asked me why I was so hard on myself, which illuminated a lot more than I was aware of at the time. If you want to be a better person, don't ease up on yourself and aim for mediocre.
