I often feel far more alone in a crowd of people than I do when I am actually alone. I'm just as afraid that people won't notice me as I am that they will.

Sunday Secret
I often feel far more alone in a crowd of people than I do when I am actually alone. I'm just as afraid that people won't notice me as I am that they will.

Dana, I feel as if you taken the words from my mind. I won't tell anyone your secret if you won't tell anyone mind. Deal? :-D
I certainlly know a few other people with that social conundrum. I had a slightly different problem, I felt alone in my own house for 14 years. Cheers to ya, Dana!!
There is alone, and then there is lonely. I like alone, but not all the time!
Trée, your secret is safe with me!
Matt-Man, this is another one of those secrets that I think might be more common than I realize.
Buff, being alone is not a bad thing - being lonely - well ...
I think this is common feeling. Crowds can be uncomfortable.
I don't do crowds.
I don't feel alone in them though I feel squeezed or crushed. Odd huh?
I like alone way yonder better.
I'm a social retard. I have this same feeling a lot of the time.
Me too. Sometimes I am not sure if I am invisible, or I just WANT to be.
Karen, it's not so much the discomfort of the crowd as it is the feeling of separateness from the crowd.
SS, squeezed or crushed is probably more logical!
Jay, I think there are a lot of us social retards in the blog world.
Good Sunday to you, Dana.
You snuck into my mind and pinned the truth down.
Came to you via Tree's blog, have liked the three posts on this page and the way that you write/think.
Going to add your blog to my links. It is interesting.
Genuinely,
Loving Annie
After just getting back from Disneyland-- I can't tell you how many times folks walked right in front of me in the restroom line. Finally after 3 days of this, I became a bit vocal. I would reply to the assholes "go ahead a jump in front of me,you must need to piss way more then me." Talk about feeling unnoticed in a crowd...
Bad Bad Girl, that's it in a nutshell!
Loving Annie, thank you for stopping by! I am nothing if not opinionated which is interesting to some and aggravating to others.
Al, invisible? At Disneyland? That's never good!
I think all of us feel that way, that's why it's important to remember that next time you're with people. :)
I feel that way to often myself
Drowsey, does that mean I have to be part of the solution instead of part of the problem? I hate it when that happens!
Mike, odd how sometimes we think we are the only ones, just to find out that we aren't so special!
But we are All Special in one way or other. its just that other`s sometimes think we arn`t.
I feel that way sometimes although I don't feel 'alone' so much as I feel 'detached'. I think it's interesting.
I'm likely to leave a place I want to be due to the crowd.
This is my first comment and visit here. I feel as if I could have written those words. Thanks for giving my feelings a voice.
