i completely know how you're feeling. ever since my last breakup i've been heartbroken...and i've realized how awful and lonely it is not to have that one person there you feel like you connect with. i have a lot of friends...and i've actually made more since the breakup but it seems the more friends i have the worse i feel knowing not any of them i really connect with.

i've also tried the being busy thing...it works the first few times you do something new to keep youself busy but after that it wears off and that becomes a chore where you just realize how lonely you are while you're doing it... i love a lot of things about life...but sadly lately all of it just makes me feel more lonely. i don't know if that makes sense.

i don't knwo if this helps at all...but you definately arn't alone and i think it IS normal and good to be lonely because that means you are human and you feel and you arn't a zombie. but i also wish being lonely didnt' feel so crappy. hopefully the amount of lonliness we feel right now will lead to the same amount of happiness later on. it's all gotta balance out.
