Sadly my loneliness is self afflicted. Because I’m fully aware I can be too much at once or to put up with for a long time. So I live in myself around people as much as I can so I don’t have to burden them with me.

Hey my friend. Thank you for posting

Im sorry that you feel this way towards yourself. That you’re too much or that perhaps you’re a burden.

Lonely Day is such a powerful and nostalgic song for me.

I remember singing this as a teenager on the bus home from school. In longer drives as I got older. I always identified with this song because, much like you, I felt like i didn’t have anyone who got me. I felt that nobody stuck around for long because I was a burden or because i had too many problems. I didn’t really make friends, close friends, until this year, 16 years later.

I think that, back then, i felt my feelings a lot bigger than other people did. And I didn’t know how to handle it. So of course the other boys in school didn’t really want to hangout with me.

But life has changed a lot. Ive done a lot of the work and unpackaged a lot of that. The way people treated me back then didn’t have much to do with me, and more to do with them. While some may see me as a burden, they don’t get to define me as one.

I hope you know that you arent a burden. That you’re a person deserving of love. I appreciate your post. I appreciate you.

Hold fast and be safe, ok?
