Alone with no family at all...can anyone relate?

I find that lonely persons are lonely by choice - there are many groups to join ; churches offer a great repose - loneliness is a state of mind???????

I don't think that's always the case. I think that sometimes the area where one lives can cause loneliness. For example, if you were an outdoorsy type who only enjoyed hiking or something but had to live in a big city. Or as in my case the opposite: I live out in the boonies and wished I lived in the city with a million bookshops and busses so I could actually go places.

Also, there are a lot of churches here but I'm an atheist so have no desire to go to them; I'd rather be around a bunch of sciencey types who'd also enjoy talking about sociology, archaeology, just about any science. (Someone once told me that I was the type of person who'd be a lot happier living in or near a big city. I told her "Don't I know it.")
