Minority or Majority

Do you think there are more lonely people in marriages or are there only a small few?

If there are more or many than a few, do you think the majority of lonely people are afraid to speak out about it?

It is my own personal feelings, there are more; but some people just don't really think about it....they/we just get used to things.
People tend to drift apart over time and their interest change.
As we age, we tend to over look more things.
Have a wonderful New Year!

Once you get used to it, lonely is a way of life. When something or someone comes into your life to show you that it can be different is when some of us wake up and wonder what have we been doing??? It is OK to be alone - but so sad to be lonely. No one should be lonely, there are far to many people in the world that are willing to be your friend...if you are a friend to them.

I think there are more lonely people in marriages then we could imagine, people drift apart do things alone without their spouse because their spouse is just not interested so we learn to do things on our own and as we get older we do become more tolerant of some things and tend to accept life as we know it!

I think there are a lot of married but lonely people in this world. And if you have tried everything, have to tried looking for a female in the same boat as you, who may live near you. Unless you are willing to go the rest of yourlife being lonely, that may be the only option

I agree with the others, there are alot of folks in marriages that are lonely. And they are either very good and hiding it, or denying it. One or the other.

Till I found this group, I would have never admitted to anyone, that I was married yet feel very lonely. I mean, personally...it has to be something wrong with me right? NO...just what I use to think...
