Is it normal to be lonely?

Hahahahahahaha I exclusively signed on to dog fucker site to reply to you cause you enjoyed my epic film review of the underrated hit movie, unappreciated gem of the late 90's, space jam, starring the egregiously underrated and unrivaled acting talents of what I deem to be the crown jewel of hidden gems, Charles Barkley.

Charles barkley aside, im so sorry to hear you are suffering through a break up (unless you broke up with Charles Barkley, then you deserve every minute of your misery, you no good whore).

The lack of physical affection after a breakup can be extremely difficult, especially if you are a person who values physical touch. I feel your pain, as a physically affectionate person , I've gone through the same thing unexpectedly during the pandemic (it's awful & I feel for you), so I've tried to think up some solutions.

Step 1: aka the most important step:
Stop asking online, autistic virgins who've fucked their own dogs because they are more desperate than Hollywood's top grossing producers scrambling over each other to cast Charles Barkley.

Seriously though. If you have platonic friends who you can trust, male of female, you can explain your situation and ask them to provide some non sexual physical affection. I have a few friends that I would feel comfortable giving extra hugs to or laying on the couch and watching a movie with and like spooning or hugging or shit like that. Even a family member like a close sibling can provide some limited affection, like maybe letting you lay on their shoulder while you hang out or giving you extra hugs. Just non iin incest-y type affection (I hate that I have to specify here that you can hug your brother without it going somewhere, but here we are...on IIN). People have suggested getting a pet, but that's a big commitment. If you aren't into that, find ads for local families that are giving away puppies, I've gone to a house to look at puppies with friends & you lay down on the ground to hold one & bam you're covered with 15 nuts fuzzy little dogs who wanna climb on you and lick your face (again, this is iin, please don't attempt seduce the dogs...you let them seduce you (joking, you gross dog fuckers)). As a woman, I wouldn't recommend hitting the streets with a "free hugs" sign. You're gonna get your boobs honked by a guy who smells like pee. That's just life. But if you are really desperate, you might be able to set up a "cuddle date" on an online dating site or something, if you specify with boundaries that you only want some hugs and meet in a public place so you don't get raped to shreds. Another good option, if you just crave touch, is to book a message. It's not intimate in an affectionate way, but it does involve relaxing touch. Tbh sometimes when I miss touch, I just kinda lay in bed and run my fingers up my arms and lower back and stuff, but I'm not single, just unexpectedly long distance from my SO & a big fingertip caressing all over fan, so it... sort of does the job-ish like jerking off sort of does for all the men on this website (not the real thing, but these are internet people & they bang tubes of thawed hammer meat from k mart out of desperation).

Honestly, though, touch is very important need if you are a physically affectionate person. It's good like drugs & it's awful missing it after a breakup. I'm sorry you're going through that & I know the feeling. Hopefully you can find something that satisfies your needs until you find you next man/lady.

Try buying a massage. Neck massages are usually cheaper and they will help your heart feel better. If you are female, bubble baths with a wank are a good thing.

Or, you might try a cheap massage gun. https://www.cosmopolitan.com/lifestyle/g37823049/best-massage-gun-on-amazon/

Meet people. Find someone where you share interests (other than sex). Make friends.

I suggest that you join an activity group (or several) in your area that does things that you are interested in, or potentially interested in.

Enjoy doing things with the group.... there will be other single people there looking for more friends as well.

I wish you best with this,

I feel you same here but you don’t have anyone to want to give you physical affection?
