How do you resolve cosmic loneliness?

Btfo’d by
Unfortunately I’m severely hard of hearing and communicating with people in any noisy environment with groups is basically impossible for me. I’m only able to connect with people in quiet environments if we talk directly to each other. It makes me develop friends I become close to, but eventually drift away from, and I’m now just tagging along with groups that I’m forced to stay quiet around as I can’t understand a single thing they say. They aren’t empathetic enough to realize I can’t hear them at all, even though they call me shy and I explain that it’s just that I can’t understand them. It makes me feel exceptionally lonely

I’m the same way user. But I realized it doesn’t change the fact that this is what people truly want. They’re too scared to reach out for true connection and feel like they must stay confined to groups where they can share the load of being cared about with others. But this is what leads to so much unhappiness i our society people want that personal connection but are too afraid of people figuring out that they aren’t perfect on the inside. It’s not easy user but it’s on us to ty and change the ways for those we know. I gave up caring about this long ago and try bringnpeople to conversations they may not immediately want to have but will cause them to open up to me. You may receive some angry glances from those who are scared of being loved but you can’t care, over time you will find people begin to be so appreciative of your precense it’s really insane. They will confide secrets in you, tell you their darkest fears and desires, laugh at their insane philisophical thoughts with you, smile when they see you, want to be around you. Life becomes wonderful and the universe becomes a kind place. We are made to connect. Make each moment of 1 on 1 time you have with people count, modern groups are soulless sadly (though they need not be), invite a girl out to lunch with no expectation of sex, ask your friend what he’s thinking about when you see him.
This is everything Yea Forums hates because they are too scared to do it but your happiness is your own hands

Your post almost brought me tears. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, not just for taking the time to write this, but for being so willing to share it. If it’s not too much, what brought you to this understanding? What happened when you began applying it?

maybe I just ended up with some terrible luck, but I went through the same thing in life, asking people of all walks of life different questions, trying to get to know them, trying to understand them, and my conclusion is different from yours.

it's true people want love, but not everybody wants to give love. everybody, ultimately, is out to get. receive. hoard. everyone that i talked to, i found no selflessness. everyone that i got to know on an intimate basis has shared with me some of their darkest secrets and fantasies, and i wish i never heard some of them, for most people are almost entirely enslaved to their subjectivity, unable to grasp at the greater picture. they're too set in their hatred and malice to let go of these ideas, because these ideas are what make them who they are, and to let go of who they are is more terrifying to them than anything else they could imagine.

people are selfish. they want to be loved but don't want to love. they want to be fed but don't want to feed. they want shelter but they don't want to give shelter. it's simple survival, but it hurts to see it still exist in our modern age.

there are always outliers but they are always the minority, and outliers for a reason. those few selfless are rightfully considered gems, and the vast majority of humanity has to be considered their opposites for them to be truly exemplary.

i'm honestly not trying to be contrarian on purpose, just trying to shed my own light on the same thing you're talking about. i guess, then, with our differing experiences, the only real conclusion that can be drawn is that that the road to intimacy can be very dangerous, because then you see the sort of primal, raw human nature which is at once majestic and repulsive, hopeful and bleak, loving and spiteful.

whenever i think on this subject, i'm reminded of the poem by Stephen Crane:

In the desert
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.
I said, “Is it good, friend?”
“It is bitter—bitter,” he answered;

“But I like it
“Because it is bitter,
“And because it is my heart.”

Loneliness is not sated by an other, but merely diluted. That is to say, an other's presence offers as much potential for communion as his absence: none. He only offers marginally less loneliness.

Beautiful and underrated post

>In the beginning this world was but the self of a human form. He reflected and found nothing but himself. He first uttered, ''Here I am'' and from that the name ''I'' came into being. He became afraid; therefore, one becomes afraid when one is alone. He thought: ''If there is nothing else but me, what am I afraid of?''. From that alone his fear was gone, for what was there to fear? It is from a second entity that fear comes.

Does it make you feel better to call it cosmic loneliness? Does it sound prettier than 'autism'?

Yes it was a rhetorical question

blind stupidity is the only permanent manner of "curing" loneliness
belief in God is the only manner of turning loneliness into something important

love moves the cosmos
