Have you ever had the feeling of being lonely, when you are here at Lit.?

I often get that feeling!

Well, not excactly lonely, but a feeling of being far away from it all,and yet so close.




Don't misunderstand me, I love being here! :cool:
 
I used to have the exact same experience when I worked at the insane asylum. Youre surrounded by people but not really part of whats going on. Same as at the zoo.
 
We do come from all over the planet and sometimes that is hard to remember.

We do have such anonymity behind our avatars that allows some of us to get closer but reality will allows be a factor whether in relation to physical distance or privacy in determining just how close we become.

In the end, I am glad we have this place and can meet and become friends as best we can.
 
Nope. If I wanted people to know who I really was, I'd post all of my actual info in my profile.

I'm a lurker by nature and I post infrequently; whether it's in the forums or another chapter of my story.

IRL I am highly introverted and antisocial. Being anonymous suits me just fine.


Thanks though, for asking. :D

I am aware, that we are from all over the planet.

Maybe the fact that I'm from Denmark, makes me feel more isolated.
I think that is the main reason, that I sometimes feel kind of...not lonely, but watching it all
from the outside.

It is a little hard to explain, but I hope you understand!

I found some friends here as well, and I'm very happy to be here!!!

Thank you, litfan. :rose:

You're welcome. ;) :D

I wouldn't mind, if people really knew who I was. Well, not all of them of course!


Sometimes I'm lurking in the dark as well. :devil:

Yours Sincerely lives fairly close to me, and yet it still seems like a million miles away. Abs is only a day trip away too (be driving most of the day, but still ;) ), and still an eternity away.

Maybe there will be a Lit.-together in Denmark. ;)


(I'm just kidding!) :D
 
In terms of personal location, I have one Litster within an hour's drive of me. Another one not that much further, and one who used to live in my town, but I have yet to meet any of these people. I am sure there are plenty more within a couple of nearby places to me.
Now, I did meet slave_ here a year ago and found out that she was not unreasonably far away. We got together enough that we decided to move in together which has been absolutely incredible.
Sadly, while very open, I do need to be careful of giving too many personal details as I would be committing employment suicide if my employers knew of me being Litfan as well as detrimental to my non-erotic writing career. I wish this wasn't the case as I am proud of my Litfan identity and the friends that I have made here.
 
One of the AH posters revealed too much info and I discovered that SHE is a HE. I keep it to myself, though.
 
I am also very antisocial by nature so enjoy being able to post and chat here and there with people who really don't know me and unlike real world people expect nothing from me.

My wife has been busting my balls that lit has become my face book.

It is so good to hear that you met slave_ here a year ago! As you know, I have posted in the
'What Are You Listening To Right Now' thread, and I know you and slave_ were attracted to each other, but moving in together...YES!!! :cool: I am very happy for the both of you! :rose:


My family knows that I'm here, and they have accepted it. (Finally.)

A very dear girlfriend of mine know that I'm here as well, and she is the only one that
keep asking me about it.

I work in a kindergarden, so it wouldn't be wise if I told them I was here!

I also keep my writing to myself. I usually do it in the wee morning hours. Not even my husband knows. It's the one thing that's still 'mine'.

Just one year ago, I used Facebook a lot.

I spend much more time here now! :cool:
 
I sometimes wish the AH threads were a little busier around here... that's about it.
 
I read, recently that our 'aloneness' inside our heads is the motivation for love. To join with another and not be alone, to rejoice in the coupling one to another, and drive back the dark shadows of our fears.

How do you measure the lack of love? Is it an emptiness that needs filling, or a bursting heart chasing love, in all the wrong places?

o~O~o​
I've never been to Denmark. I have been to Amsterdam, but I have read about the Danish coast and it does look cool and damp, after living in deserts most all my life.

I get that all over the 'net I go, lately. While I am not the most prolific poster, I do get the same sort of feeling.

As I work where I see many, many people face-to-face each day, most without more than temporary interaction, it gets magnified when I go here and in Google+ after a long busy day of work. Like today, actually.

I don't feel lonely per se, but distant seems to be what fits. I chalk it up to a lifetime of being relatively antisocial catching up with me, that's the part that makes things feel just out of reach sometimes. As if i had had nothing valid or interesting to say, or if I did, someone else beat me to it, or did it in a more wonderful fashion :D

Yes, overall I am very happy to be able to be here, it has been great, I love it :D
