Post 230 | Alone


All it takes is one thing to remind me how alone I am. Today I received an email telling us when housing signups were. No one wants to room with me. I can feel it in my bones. Freshman year I thought I gained all these great connections. Then some friends and I tried to get an apartment and it fell through and none of them wanted to room with me. Then no one wanted to room with me the following year, and then the guy who I was gunna room with bailed on me and I just expect it to go this way again. I just always wind up with whoever is on the damn facebook group.

I hate being the odd one out. The one no one really wants. The one that everyone smiles when they see but when I pass they probably just shake their head and walk away.

I hate feeling alone.

I know I am not completely alone but I definitely feel it. I have Tasha and I have some friends, but none that can or will live with me. One is going to a different college next year, one is a girl, and my quote, un quote best friend is Tasha, also a girl…

I’m not alone but I feel alone.

I suppose you could say I don’t really have a best guy friend right now.  I would say it’s weird, but it’s not really. I haven’t really had a want for one for so long now, but I am sitting here in my room alone and it sucks. Last year there were guys on my floor that hung with me and we had a good time but they all moved to apartments so all alone I am here in the dorms with a roommate that I don’t think even likes me, probably just tolerates me.

Oh well.

Suppose that’s just my life now. I am really looking forward to being done with college. Move onto the real world. Where I can live with whomever I want or even alone. Maybe my fish is my best guy friend right now… Which is funny but sad.

Fuck the system, man. I really wish I could just get a place by myself here. It would make stuff a lot simpler. Not worry about anyone else, not deal with anyone else. Sure I would be alone, but I wouldn’t feel rejected, it would be by choice. Does that make sense? Yeah? No?

Maybe someone will offer for me to live with him this year. That would be nice. But it probably won’t happen.

I’ll just be alone.

In a bad place, goodnight.

If I was still at school, I'd room with you!

It'll all work out. I found my apartment peeps a few days before sign ups through friends of friends. There is always space somewhere. Good luck!
