I’m shattered and can’t overcome being lonely

Biggest problem is I never had any friends. The 2-3 I had as a kid were the only ones as an adult too. They both drifted away when I got in a relationship 6 years ago and I didn’t have the energy to maintain those relationships. I’ve been dumped for a year now and I’m completely alone. My ex was asleep 2 hours after dinner and I was left with nothing to do. It was the loneliest time of my life. <br><br>I always thought she’d be my best friend, my confidante, the one person I could share my life with. But that didn’t happen and now she’s gone. I’m back to where I was 6 years ago but now I’m 35. I’m tired of being lonely, tired of not having friends, tired of not knowing how to make friends. Every attempt I’ve made since being dumped has failed. Every single one. <br><br>I’m shattered. I don’t know what to do any more. I’ve given up.
