How do you manage mentally with having no-one there for you? Have you managed to be successful in filling the hole in your life? Is it possible to ever feel life satisfaction? I ask because this is the situation I'm in and it's killing me. I ache to belong to someone. To have significant people in my life who are solid and to have that feeling of belonging, being a part of something. I have friends and colleagues but at the end of the day they melt away and I'm left all alone. I'd so love to have an Auntie or sister to visit, parents perhaps, but I have nothing. I wonder if I'll spend my whole life pining. I've tried my very hardest to find a life partner, my longest relationship being 25yrs but he died. I'm now late 50s. Is there anything to fill the chasm or will I always have to live with the pain of belonging to nobody?
