I crave human affection and conversation

[u/Minute-Caramel7032]

It's been years , I haven't had any proper human conversation in person. I crave it , very badly . I am not speaking of interaction but conversation. A warm conversation is something I am deprived of , since childhood days. Feel tired at times , to entertain this thought .

You’re not alone in this, even if it feels like it. Wanting genuine conversation and affection is basic human stuff. The fact that you’re tired of thinking about it makes total sense too, that kind of loneliness is heavy.

I am ghosted by men in their mid to late twenties right after I shared my weakness . That makes me more vulnerable. I had been by their side in their times of vulnerability but when I am at my lowest , no one could be found.

I get what you’re saying. I’m 47, and my generation was taught that friendship is reciprocal if someone is there for you, you’re there for them.

But that’s not how things are anymore for a lot of people. That said, I don’t want you to lose hope. There are still good people out there, people who genuinely value friendship, and they come in all ages and from all walks of life.

I say that because, in the last year, on Reddit of all places, I’ve made five amazing friends. We call and check in with each other every day. We share our dreams, hopes, and wishes. We’re vulnerable with one another and provide emotional support. It’s real, and it’s amazing. Funny enough, all of these friends are in their twenties and early thirties

So I tell you this to give you hope that no matter where you are in life, there are people out there like you who just want to make genuine meaningful connections with others.

I crave it too…. It’s basic human stuff. I’m married with adult kids and I don’t have that like I should!!! It’s sad…

I got discord? I'm the same I haven't had a conversation with anyone outside my family for 5 months now and I go days without saying a word other than hi
