My mate is feeling all down..
 

But he's like me, he kind of likes it.

He has recently split from his boyfriend and has not been as vocal lately on fb and that so he posted a nice pic of himself with his nice lips and puffed hair, supping a glass of bubbles, alone with his cat looking so happy explaining that he likes to feel down at times.



I posted this back..


I'm the same Jamie, sometimes I just like being quiet...you be you mate.

But it's also nice to know people wonder about you x





Do you sometimes like to feel down and just be alone?

Lmao absolutely not. I've mainly been miserable for the last 12 months bar the odd good few days and I'm wondering when I get to find my happiness again.

It could be argued that after all this corona, everyone has a new beginning.. that's how I like to think.

I wouldn’t say I like to feel down although I’ve had my moments in the past where things get a bit too much and I prefer to just try and deal with it on my own (which I admit is probably not always the best option). I would say though that I do feel a lot better afterwards once I’ve got it all out of my system if that makes sense?

It must be difficult for your friend at the moment going through a breakup, especially if he’s not working and just alone with his thoughts so it would make sense why he’s not posting a lot. It’s good though that you’ve wrote to him cause it shows that you care and he probably does need that right now, even if he does like to be alone. I hope he begins to feel a bit better soon.

Very philosophical!

I think he's doing ok, he had his church services to look forward to every sunday and the choir practice on a Wednesday evening..I think he's just missing tinkling with his church organ and the joy that brings others.

I think he needs to fill a void in his life now he ain't got that instead of guzzling bubbles on his own..

I will msg him those thoughts to cheer him up more.

I'm felling a bit down lately but my friends have been brilliant texting every day making sure I'm ok

I don't know if I'm getting more "mental" as I get older, but I really don't want a partner living with me. I don't want some grubby bloke eating my food and touching my things.

me when I was in lock down with Mr C

not really, although he did test me with his constant tea making :laugh:

I don't enjoy feeling down but when I am I certainly don't want people around me. I bounce back much better by being on my own and giving myself a talking to to get out of it. People are just annoying when they are trying to be nice to you to make you feel better :laugh:

With his what lips?

My reply would have been

"Ffs get.a HUD o herself min and don't be a massive fanny"

Ha, this reminds me of a story I heard once, but can't remember where:

I get this

I sort of feel this way sometimes. Like there will be days where I just don't want to interact with anyone at all irl and just be quiet and do my own thing. I think it actually works to go with it and own feeling down rather than trying to be ~okay

I wouldn't say I like to feel down, but I do like moments of peace and quiet, where I can just get lost in my own thoughts and have time to reflect.

Are you feeling pink blue? :(

orange today!

:laugh: he makes his own tea :oh:

btw I wasn't calling you elderly D: :hehe:

I found the story, it was a friend of Derren Brown's! He tells it better:

I’ve got a lot going on at the moment, but just have to get on with things.

Mrs Old!

:hug:

Thank you Cherie I would post about it but it’s personal.

A problem shared is a problem halved.

You can’t half this one.

Sounds like the lad
