It seems like women do not. In my pathetic AMERICAN city, most men here have no one. I know men who are in their 50's who never met anyone ever. Most have become obese and or ill as a result of intense loneliness. Many made an effort to meet women but women shunned them. These men are not "losers" most are professionals and some have even been celebrated for their hard work in their craft. But women dont care about things like that it seems. Men commit suicide much more than women. Yet when do women care about that? when do we ever hear of a women who has been alone and shunned for life? Does this ever happen? I doubt it. Women always have friends or at the very least someone they can talk to. Most men have no one. A women can get a man anytime she wants but most American men are out of luck. Women could careless about good men who are alone. They are just called "weak" or "losers" and dismissed. I never ever met a man who ever think of a woman and dismiss her in such a way.

im a woman and im lonely right now.
sometimes people never meet anyone, or they do meet them and let them go.
no one can ever know why they are alone, nor what will happen tomorrow.
we cant go through life thinking there is someone for everyone, there cant be.
dont think that woman get out of this easily, or that males are the only ones being shunned. rejection goes both ways, and often the timing is just off.
I don't know where you're getting your information, but you couldn't be more wrong. I'm so lonely right now that I am thinking about suicide.
you seem to have a lot of pre-conceived notions about women, that are completely wrong.
let me address them in order.
I know many women in their 40s and 50s who have never had someone (I'm one of them) and have become obese or ill (I'm both).
I have made efforts to meet men, and have been shunned, and even mocked because I'm overweight.
I wasn't a loser, until I had a nervous breakdown, after being a chronc workaholic for years and years. and I was recognized for doing an exceptional job.
I am alone, and apparently will be for life. that hurts.
I have ONE friend, and there are maybe 4 other women with whom I will talk, but that's it.
I can "get" a man anytime, is that what you think? I haven't tried for years, I got tired of the rejection.
and if you have never met men who judge and dismiss women as you described, then I don't think you know many men.
what I see is men who want tall 5'7" "slinky" blondes, about 120 lbs, who have nothing between the ears, but lots on the chest.
Your question/writing is full of sadness and bitterness...are you writing about yourself!?
Well, it is true that women can "cope" with loneliness easier than men as they can open up, show their emotions much more easier than men!
Men "hide" themselves in work/hobbies in times when they are lonely, maybe if they are financially stable enough they are trying to find a woman of their dream, but then they are scared that it`s all about their money...
People are forgetting that both men and women can feel lonely on the same level.
Unfortunately, women need the men who can stand by them without worrying about safe future if she wants a family life...woman needs to feel she is treated nicely and is worthy of a man`s affection, cherished... then she can treat him nicely back. Sometimes men need to show women that they care about them... And that should then work and they won`t be lonely anymore! There is a soul-mate for everyone. Everybody is equal, lose your prejudice!
Do not give up, get out more, join some clubs, go for a holiday, treat-pamper yourself, do something for yourself...Do not forget to treat other with respect too, how about a charity work? Make yourself useful, somebody else will appreciate your free, voluntary time and you will feel good too. And you might find somebody there, who is in the same situation like you! You can make changes, just don`t be scared. Think positively. Every beginning is hard, but you have to plan to make small steps towards your better future. Be happy from little things!
If you learn to love yourself, appreciate yourself, there will be somebody who will love you too!
All the best!
case in point , here i am i dont know why there seems tobe some people like me who never get the chance to meet new people, its like it's a special privilege for some and not others it's not fun at all i wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy if i had one. so the best thing to do is to take it one day at a time and keep hoping
well i have been lonely for a while i mean i have friends but they are stupid they never call me and i have countless times asked them to make plans over the summer but they obviously dont give a crap so yea i guess you can say im lonely and boys oh geezz they are just a waste of my life
u are an idiot. most men cheat on women are gay drug user women beaters down low bastards. most men leave a woman after she turns 40 for a younger woman. men never want 2 commit. women have it hard!
All they have to do is open up to new friends. There is a big world out there,
yes, it happens all over the world and it hurts just the same. loneliness can be overwhelming. it's just the same with guys and girls.
