Why do I feel lonely?

Why do I feel lonely?

Why do I feel lonely?

Posted by Attila Bognar Self-inquiry exercises, Inspiring, Independence, Anger, Loss

“I feel abandoned. And there is something fundamentally important behind it.” If this resonates with you, then this self-inquiry exercise may be valuable to you.

(While the below inner dialogue certainly may not be fully about you, it is real. It isn’t altered for a more pleasurable experience, only for readability. If you find it useful, then do your own self-reflection.)

Note that this is a somewhat different self-inquiry from the others, as some parts have been left out. You will probably catch where.

Self-inquiry on why I feel lonely

  • (More importantly, why can I just not get out of my loneliness?)

  • Obviously, I feel lonely because I am abandoned.

  • I know and feel that my problem is abandonment, but still, I am not over it.

  • It is a dead end this way. There must be something more to it.

  • After a lot of self-reflection and inquiry, this is what I got to: My problem is that I feel betrayed.

  • I gave everything into the relationship, and the other person betrayed me by not taking our relationship seriously.

  • This is a morality issue for me.

  • And this is beyond the two of us.

  • How can we, humans, have this capacity to betray one another? I am not talking about carelessness. I am talking about outright ignorance.

  • This is what my morality cannot digest at the moment, and this is the reason why I cannot get out of my loneliness.
