… I like different people. I’m also very different, also from myself at times.

You came at the right place. Speak, we are listening. I’ve alredy seen the reply of Bluebird to you, I hope that it will help. > My best friend is on another continent and although she > e-mails me and gives me moral suppot I can’t help wishing i could talk to > her about my problems.

Remember that your friend may be off-line for some reason and unable to communicate. I don’t know if this applies to your case. > Well i guess writing this has made me feel better.
And I hope that you will feel even better for the replies! > Take Care, > Mona

Your particular situation *is* "different". I don’t suppose you find a lot of people that are in the same situation or can relate to the problems you experience fully enough for you to feel "understood". That can make you feel even more "alone" or "lonely". The feelings of loneliness though are "common" feelings. Feelings that most people in this ng can relate to and so you have found people that can understand a part of what you feel. A lot of people here are estranged from their families for one reason or another and they can identify with those feelings that you have. So, I think we’ve got a good part of it covered, Mona. (said with a smile of encouragement for you) The feelings about "home" may be a bit more difficult. I move around a lot and am alone a lot by choice. Home for me is wherever I happen to be. That’s because I make wherever I am for whatever amount of time I’m there, a place where I am comfortable and where I feel "welcome". In contrast to what a "lot of people say" about where "home" is, I’m going to say that "home" is where you make it.

Hi, Mona, I’m so glad you found this group. Continue to post as I promise that the people here understand your loneliness. You see, the loneliness is that same, no matter the reason, the age or the situation. I’m 56 and live alone. I’m fighting cancer which makes me "different" to a LOT of people… even "friends". I have no family and that again makes me "different", mostly to me…in my own mind and heart. I come here because these people DO understand. I have a young friend your age and with your permission, I would like to see if she’d come over here and correspond with you occasionally. She’s very mature for her 13 yrs. Which I know makes her feel "different" at times to. Keep posting and I’m so proud to meet you. Remember that, even though it is hurtful right now, your difference is to be proud of one day. You’ll get there.

Hi everyone, I just found your newsgroup and I think it’s great because I’m feeling awfully lonely. i guess one of the reasons for that is because I’m a bit different from most other people I know. I’m a first-year Computer Science student at Dalhousie University in Canada and I got in here when I was 14. A lot of people think that’s something i should be really happy about but it’s really very hard to cope with. I ended up like this because my two older brothers did something similar and it was expected of me. The friends I’ve made here are just people to talk to- they don’t understand how I feel and really they can’t be bothered to waste the time listening to a kid complain. My best friend is on another continent and although she e-mails me and gives me moral suppot I can’t help wishing i could talk to her about my problems. My family’s scattered all over the world. My mom and my brothers are all living in different places. I don’t even know where to call home- i haven’t been in my country for 10 years. The place i was living before i came to Canada was awful and i dread ever going back. A lot of people say home is where family is – but exactly which person in my family would that be because we’re all living apart because of education or jobs. I recently poured out my grief to a friend of mine who i trusted very much and he hasn’t e-mailed me since. Needless to say, that hurt a lot. Well i guess writing this has made me feel better. Take Care, Mona —
