Subject: 85.1) I long to be alone, but can be lonely even in the middle of a huge crowd, as you said. I was an only child, too. Some only-children hate being alone, but I always loved it.
In reply to: celtgirl 's message, "85.1- I have no problem being alone, maybe it comes from growing up an only child, but I've always been happy in my own company. Lonely is different, you can be lonely in a crowd, or in a bad marriage and I think that's much worse than being alone. 85.2- Because he wasn't ready, it would have been a mistake to stay, he's giving in to a moment of just needing to be near her here, they're both still grieving terribly over two deaths and the state of their marriage. 85.3- he asked her for no words, and so she didn't speak any, it was really the best thing she could do, Casey isn't ready to listen at this point and it would only have made matters worse." on 08:11:54 10/31/07 Wed

  • I don't mind being alone at all. Leave me with a good book and a hot cuppa tea and I'm happy, but being lonely is most different. Sometimes that happens, probably to us all, and it's not a happy place to be. (NT) -- Denise, 11:33:09 10/31/07 Wed
  • Ditto. I love being alone. I have been lonely too, and lonely is not a happy state. I love being alone, in the woods, with nothing but me and the earth and all her mysteries. Oh, but I am never really alone,, my dogs are always with me. (NT) -- bug, 17:00:16 10/31/07 Wed
