Every time at Thanksgiving I always ponder this question are you alone or lonely?
I know some people chose to be alone on Thanksgiving or they have no choice and everywhere in between.
I, personally have friends and family that are near and far. I personally chose to not have a family, but I am content with my decision. I could always do with more friends and be closer with more of my family.

So for you during these Holidays and festive times, will you be alone or lonely or somewhere in between?

my personal choice as always been to be alone. i actually like my me-time. i will preface that all my life i have always been around people and i've grown to the point in my life where i'm tired of dealing with ignorant people. for that sake, i rather just be alone, treat people with respect when i'm around them, and have nothing more to do with them.

my wife, on the flip side, is a total social junkie. she loves being around people and friends and family. i get enough of people just being with my wife so i'm content enough for that. again, i choose to be alone for any holiday if i had i my way. it's just another day to me. in my opinion, we don't need holidays to get together. just get together if you want to spend time with each other.

now for loneliness, if you are suffering from this, i would urge you to get help or join a support group. loneliness is very dangerous and "true" loneliness and a feeling of helplessness is very mentally and physically damaging. i went through a period in my life wherein i was truly alone and there was nobody there for me or to turn to and i will admit that it's a very dark place. if you are in this place, please reach out for help, you are not alone.
