Omg this hurts my heart. :wow:Humanity is too beautiful to let this happen. I never want people to be like this.

China is creating universities for the elderly which are very successful. I hate the lack of veneration we have for our elders. It's probably one of the most powerful indicators of how sick Western society is. Check on older people in your neighborhoods.

And go out and meet people! Don't get stuck in your head and in anxiety. You are just as good as anybody else. There is nothing wrong with you. Fukk being nervous. Take a shower and go for a walk and facilitate a conversation at the damn grocery store, the park, the library. The world doesn't need u wasting away by yourself in some dank little space in front of Netflix. (I mean we all have those days too lol b/c I'm bout to watch Baki and Black Clover for a couple of hours after I get outta here:mjlol:) But go talk to people please!!!!

It's not about having a partner alone.

It's all types of relationships.

The reason men are lonely is more often is more down to the fact they don't have any friends. Someone to joke around with. Someone to talk too. Especially cacs. They don't even have fun jovial conversation in barbershops. They barely even have cousins that are like friends.

Playing some type of multiperson sport. being active in Church or volunteering. Looking after animals or farming. It's great for people's health.

This on the bolded. I have ran into a lot of peeps who don't have friends to do anything.

Personally myself, at 42, I have a few peeps to kick it with whether it be motorcycling, movies, bowling, billiards, or photography. I think its important to keep an active social life or hobbies so you don't get bored and/or lonely. The truth being that just about everyones city has some sort of social activities which you can meet people, it's taking that 1st step to get involved. Some peeps are comfortable being alone though, some prefer it that way.

There are some surprising findings. First, though equivalent in risk, loneliness and social isolation don’t necessarily go hand-in-hand,

people can feel lonely even when surrounded by lots of people, especially if the relationships are not emotionally rewarding. In fact, Dr. Carla Perissinotto and colleagues at the University of California at San Francisco reported in 2012 that most lonely individuals are married, live with others and are not clinically depressed.

This part stood out to me the most. Can't begin to tell you how often I've experienced this. Often enough there is very little incentive to seeking out and maintaining relationships. In fact, making efforts to be more sociable and receptive to new relationships ends up causing unnecessary stress.

I used a romantic relationship as my prime example because that is the one type of relationship men care about the most as they age. I don't give a fukk if I hear from MOST men, with the exception of about 3 close homies I have, but I'll always prefer the comfort of a woman's essence and vagina. But my point is universal for ALL relationships.

Toxic is toxic. Don't care if it's family, romance, friendships, coworkers, etc. CACs lead in suicide cases across this country. Always have. Because most CAC men are mentally weak and fragile, by nature. So the minute they're faced with adversity in their lives, such as "loneliness", they start drinking themselves to death or just kill themselves the old fashioned quick way with suicide.

So I'll take an article written by some CAC author with a grain of salt and not take it as gospel concerning my life. I find peace and tranquility in solitude. Some are codependent on outside forces for sustenance and happiness. I'm not one of them. Friends, woman, or not. I'll thug it alone and be just fine, if need be. Learn to enjoy your own company and not depend on others for validation. Born alone, die alone :yeshrug:

Interesting that atheists have a shorter life span on average than religious people and have higher rates of suicide..

Atheism Has a Suicide Problem | HuffPost


Maybe there a connection?

:dwillhuh:

But it ain't like atheists are more likely to be lonely though..

:mjlol:
:pachaha:
man, the absence of HOPE is a terrible thing. Hope in a better future, hope in the unseen, hope in a higher power etc.
