Sometimes I wake up and wonder if there isn't a single person in my life who truly knows me.  Someone who knows how I feel at all times and is still there when I turn around, despite how I feel inside.  Anyone at all, who I don't have to pretend to feel or be something or someone that I'm not, for. 

It's a lonely place, to suddenly realize that there isn't.

~Chelle, you have the talent of putting feelings into words in such an eloquent way.  I sometimes read and think "Yes, I know! I get it! I feel that way, too!"

I can't imagine that anyone can TRULY know us.  They aren't inside our heads, our hearts, our souls.  I really is sometimes a very lonely place.  You can be in a room full of people and be so lonely in your thoughts.  Do you think for someone to truly know us we would have to voice to them our every idea, every thing that brushes across our brains? I just can't imagine. It muddles my thoughts a bit just to think about it.

See, you've gone and made me start thinking now, tsk tsk.  ;~P

I think we all more than likely are doing the best we can.There are however, times that we don't pick up on feelings  from another person whether it be from family or friends. In those instances, I think we must rely on our faith and our love or ourselves and our on line friends to be there when we need them. I do admire your ability to be able to share those feelings. That is something I've always had a hard time with and do keep things inside. What your doing is admirable and I commend you for your willingness to share what is inside you. You are a role model for "insiders' like me.
Thanks,
Nancy

Is there even someone like that in the world?  I don't know, there're probably some that come fairly close.  But I don't know any.  I'm concentrating on just becoming an authentic person-for myself.  That'll have to do.

At the risk of sounding like the devil's advocate, there is no way anyone will, or can know all of who you are....unless you let them in completely, and share all of this with them.  It takes two equally committed people (in any type of relationship) to achieve this, as you can share all day long, but if the other person isn't receptive...it won't work.  Sorry, been a little introspective here lately.

Back into friend mode...I'm sorry that you feel this way, and I can only assume that something has happened that has sparked this.  I hope that whatever has gone amiss is short lived.

Goodness hon, I've felt like that so many times. It's a horrible feeling, one I'm glad always passes. I have been off line for quite awhile, so thought I'd come check on you...see how you're doing. Know I am here for you, loving you and accepting you as you have always loved and accepted me.
much love,
