After your socials are over and your friends go home to their husbands and wives or their children or baby's daddies or whoever, you're the one at home with no one to talk to. At my age, being single makes me feel very lonely, especially when all my friends are with their significant others. Even hobbies don't seem as fun anymore because I start thinking about what it would be like to share the memory with someone else who's going to be around.

That's all. No, I am not ashamed to admit when I feel sad. Anyone else feel this way?

Yea, I do. I have a hard time sleeping at night as well. I think the fact that I am alone makes it worse.

Sometimes. Although I would not use the adverb extremely to describe those moments. I think almost every single person (and maybe some who are in relationships) has from time-to-time.

When I was single night-time was definitely the hardest time for me. Best to find a good book and keep yourself busy.

Indeed.

I assume this is a very natural feeling when you are alone. I also tend to be at my angriest and most frustrated at night. Upon the brink of slumber my head is often filled with things that upset me and make actually falling asleep difficult.

I'm usually working.

And I probably spend 5 to 6 hours a day asleep, if I'm not working a second job.

yep same here, especially at night... I'm always tossing and turning for hours with only this to think about before I manage to go to sleep.

Same here, not extremely lonely but if I am not asleep it's the time where those frustrating, annoying, or lonely feelings come out. Thankfully, they go away with the sun

You can feel lonely even if you have someone. That's even worse.
