Do you get lonely much? I used to feel wild lonely as a kid and early adult. Lately, I've started feeling lonelier than ever. It feels more profound because it's so mundane, if that makes a whit of sense. I hate feeling so needy.

I think being in a relationship makes you realise things about yourself, and helps you figure out a direction to head in (I mean that as much outside of the relationship, as within it). I think if, for whatever reason, I found myself single again, I'd be better prepared for it given the things I've learned and realised about myself.
good point. about age 32-33 suddenly marketing people see that age group in the mammy/daddy category w/ adverts featuring baby care, need a bigger car, health/life insurance etc kind of stuff.I felt it a bit around my mid-thirties when the opportunities for socialising that I was used to started to dry up for various reasons (not playing/recording in bands any more, friends getting married or having kids or moving away etc). I kinda felt left behind and conscious that I was on my own a lot. Slowly the loneliness mellowed in to misanthropy and I learned that I enjoy my own company and don't like people. Sorted. Or, more accurately, I still enjoy the social occasions and appreciate them more when they happen and also enjoy pottering about by myself. I'm not sure what kind of fruitcake I'm turning into but sure nobody cares so whatever.

I found this very annoying for a few years but by my late 30's I had gotten used to it.
I have only gone to about 40 gigs in my life but about 18 of them were in 2019. it has to be something I am really up for or I won't bother going out - I don't drink and am very picky about where my money goes.
I get a chance to talk about stuff on thumped that no one I meet regularly is interested in.
Loneliness is not good. Not good at all.

Whoa whoa dude. You really oughta try not to judge your feelings. If you feel needy it's because you need somethingI hate feeling so needy.
