Can this. make you crazy?

[Dport]

I'd assume loneliness can eventually cause a person's thoughts to go into dark, unhealthy directions. After a long while of dark, unhealthy thoughts a person might be a lil bit crazy.

Before you know it you're putting together a small arsenal, and looking into a mirror asking "You talkin to me?!?"

You sound like you just need to get back into the game. Get out and meet people. Things will happen.

Yeah you are right.thanks

Always be kind, and remember the best way to have a friend is to be a friend. Sounds trite but is so true.

Lonely can feel like crazy. So can horny.

I've been widowed for a little over two years, after 35 years together. No kids. Family all lives at least a day's drive away.

Full-on sex had become impossible due to her illness the final few years, so while I do miss that, it's just a continuation of the drought. Plus grief can eliminate libido.

What I really miss is companionship. I've learned how to "be" solitary but it's not my preference. I'm social at work, and have non-work friends I do things with. But none of that replaces having a lifetime companion.

One day I will feel like looking for another relationship. Until then, if one finds me, that's okay too. I might also consider a roommate, but sharing a home is a big deal, there are a lot of flakes out there, and living with any of my close friends is a nonstarter (been there).

So very sorry for your loss, I hope someone great finds you.

I don't mean to sound insensitive in any way... I'm just feeling for ya and thought maybe if you don't have any pets, perhaps an animal companion would be soul-soothing?

I don't know what I'd do without my pets. They're my family. They get me through lonely times.

Just a thought... Well wishes your way from this lady

Is it possible that a long time of no emotional and,or physical connection. With any gender that you Are attracted to can make you go crazy? And Or more sexually deviant?

Crazy? I wouldn't say so, as a generalization. Sad, lonely, depressed, etc? Most definitely. When my partner and I were long distance over a multiple year long period, I found that the time span I worked at a pet boarding facility/day camp was a little easier to tolerate. Working with and being around cats and dogs all the time helped some to alleviate my hunger for touch. Not at all in a sexual way. In a "hey, these critters like me and are warn and cozy and want to snuggle and play" kinda way. It didn't fix anything, but was a little easier to keep my mood up. When I went to a different job I definitely missed my fuzzy friends.

I don't quite understand the "with any gender that you are attracted to can make you go crazy" part. I'm fortunate and thankful that I had parents who didn't care and am in a geographical location where people aren't negative about someone who is LGBTQ and the rest of the alphabet. I have not and do not have any conflict over my sexual and romantic attraction to any gender, much less feeling crazy over it. Is that how you meant your question?

I would as a general statement say that one's sexual "deviancy" comes down to choices you as an individual choose to make. Plus, for many things deviancy is in the eye of the beholder. I like BDSM, done safely and consensually and don't think of myself as deviant for it. I enjoy it, it makes me feel good, and no one is being harmed by it. It did take me some time to make peace with some of my kinks, but I definitely have done so. I generally believe so long as it's sane, consenting adults people doing whatever acts there's nothing too bad about it.

That isn't insensitive at all. I do love animals. I don't have any since they would be alone all day and sometimes into the evening.

Some animal shelters encourage people to walk and play with their visitors. But it can be both uplifting and heartbreaking if the shelter isn't "no kill".
