Wake up! Factors Making You Lonely

Wake up! Factors Making You Lonely

This is why people feel more lonely these days.

The Problem:

People feel very lonely, and they are unhappy, frustrated, and angry. There is a solution to this problem.

Solutions

Most people today, engage in one sided conversations. The real key to getting out of feeling lonely, is make people engage in conversations that are not all one sided.

I feel lonely because of this.

Conversations go something like this:

The sky is blue. — Statement. followed by, “uh hu” Than they proceed to make another statement, followed by something like, “oh that is interesting.” There is no engagement beyond mindless talk that goes nowhere.

The other kind of conversation goes something like this.

The sky is blue. — Followed by repeating back to them what they said. I Heard you, but you didn’t engage me in conversation. You didn’t ask me to think, or respond, it feels like they are talking to hear their heads rattle.

To Really Fix The Problem

We have to have conversations that are engaging both people, where we can talk and have a discourse where both people are treated like intelligent adults, that can listen, think, and respond. One sided conversations with people that are either:

1. Egomaniacs
2. Conversational Narcissists

This doesn’t work, and makes the other person who has to listen to that, feel so very alone, and hurts them. You have to have conversations that make both people feel needed, and wanted. You have to be able to talk with respect.
