Is it possible to die from loneliness? Or from a broken heart?
Posted: 11/5/2009 1:26:38 PM
I do not think is is possible to die from loneliness or a broken heart. But when I was about your age I felt the same despair. I am now nearly 62 and yes I am still lonely but not despairing. I am sometimes sad that I have not found a special man to be with. But perhaps if I had I would not have had the wonderful adventures that I have had in my life. You are so beautiful and well educated. I do not think it will be long until some great fellow comes along and wants to be with you. In the mean time go out and have some great adventures. Follow whatever passion you have, learn lots of things and have a great life. You never know you may meet your Mr. wonderful as you are doing that.
Good luck.

Also I agree with the other poster. Go get some counselling I know that helps.

It's not possible to die from lonliness or a broken heart or I would be dead right now.

I know from past experience that the fastest way to recover is to get out around
people as much as possible. Be someplace where you can mingle and chat
with others. Your beauty will draw men to you. Be very persistent about
meeting men here and everywhere you can. Eventually it has to happen
for you that you meet the right guy if you have perseverence.

butterfly... i agree with on.. you are cute as can be, and young. the feelings are real, and i know them well. it can be an overpowering thing, but you have to remember those feelings are temporary, they will change. i also agree with a lot of the others who are saying to get out there in the world, do things you enjoy and make the effort to meet people. you will be surprised at how much good that will do! best of luck

You are not going to die. We won't let you! There is so much love and support pouring out of POF for you right now! Why don't you message some of the kind people out here (men AND women) as they've suggested? (You can start with me if you like; I certainly know loneliness and broken hearts, too.) It's always nice to have 1 -0n 1 support; even just a friendly email in your mailbox now and then.

Another site to find people and activities in your area is meetup.com. POF is cool, but real, in-person contact is better. You are beautiful, inside and out, and I just know people will be drawn to you. So spread those wings, Butterfly!

For me, renting a funny movie lifts my mood. Music, too (No sappy love songs, though!) So does just getting out of the house. Do anything. And do get help. Don't be ashamed.

Here's a hug! You need one! Wishing you lots more.

I wouldn't think so on the physical scale...but emotional is a different story. Anyways, the problem with society is not giving people a chance. I noticed even on this site....its like drama (i really dont know why i am still her personally)

You send someone a mail just to say, "Hi lets chat" (for example) and then they look at your picture (dont even read the dang profile or give a crap) and delete it... personally i get that alot

Yes I know exactly how you feel...but it does get better. You feel like you are the only one feeling this way when in fact you would be surprised how many people feel this way when trying to get over a broken heart. There is a reason they call it a broken heart....it hurts....hurts like nothing you can imagine. You are not the first person to feel like this and unfortunately you won't be the last. Hang in there and keep smiling. Time heals all hurts.

Yes I feel the lonelinesss, alienation and sadness as the thread starter. I am always alone and cry too. I know exactly how you feel, but that does not help any of us.
But I know you don't die from a broken heart, I am still existing.

Hey. I really think you should make an appt. to see your G.P. I think you're slipping into a bad place and unless you get help soon it will take over you..., after all if you broke your leg you'd see a doc.. well it's the same with the mind. even if it's just a course of mild anti depressants.. it'll give you a break.

Good luck.

Butterfly, I just read your profile, and noticed you have a lot of restrictions on who can contact you. Why? I think you're really limiting yourself and increasing your loneliness. You could meet a lot of nice people, even if they're not your dream man (i.e. female friends, too).

Tell a little more about yourself, too. Saying that you don't know what to write makes you less interesting. You seem like a nice, attractive person - maybe if you are more open to different types of people and friends, not just "long term", and share more about yourself, you would be happier. I hope you will.

There is one lucky young man out there that is just waiting for you and no one else.

You know I dislike platitudes like this. Finding someone is just a matter of sheer luck and endurance and there are no guarantees.

I'm sooo lonely these days. I feel like im going to shrivel up and die. Im always alone and I cry alot. I joined this particular site to try and meet new people...but its not working out for me.I wasnt always this way. I dont know what has happened to me. Has anyone else on here ever felt this kind of despair. Men and Women?



Oh GAWD, don't think like this.........

You're such a beautiful woman! Get out there and enjoy life, darling. Don't you have family/friends to do things with? They're many networking groups out there. You don't necessarily have to be glued to your computer and fish in this Pond (thus isolating yourself).

Volunteering is also good for the soul as well. Always good to help those less fortunate then us. Makes us grateful for where we are and have.

If you are suffering from depression seek professional help. All you have to do is reach out!!!

Best,
