So where do you go when you are lonely?

― ryan adams (nathalie), Saturday, 6 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your na-aa-ame (dum dum dum dum) and they're always glad you ca-aa-ame...

― David Raposa, Saturday, 6 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I go to sleep and dream the loneliness away.

― jel, Saturday, 6 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

shopping

Never really feel that lonely, but I usually either:
a) surf the information super-highway, or
b) go down the pub.

― DavidM, Saturday, 6 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

to the internet!

there a place where I can go and tell my secrets to...Walmart

― Mike Hanle y, Saturday, 6 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Livejournal, to pour out all the sadness in my little heart. I call people and go places if I'm just deprived of contact, but when I'm lonely because I think no one likes me very much or they are not available I sit at home and sulk.

yesterday i was lonely, so i went to annoy my friends and we watched "clockwatchers" and a documentary about elton john. today i woke up feeling much better, and i figured my loneliness was part of the general sadness i feel when i'm hungover.

Suffering through a bad hangover is undeniably a social activity.

― turner, Saturday, 6 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

To the porno store

The YMCA.

― Arthur, Sunday, 7 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I WISH I could be lonely sometimes, my apartment is like some sort of crackheaded illegal immigrant halfway house with the amount of people coming in and out of it. I haven't been alone in months, it's frightening. When I want to be lonely, I jsut don't come home from work and go to our local version of Cheers instead, but that's not even being alone cos then I have to talk to Justin.

Peter Sarstedt's place

― David, Monday, 8 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Ally you need to take a religious retreat to easter Island. Bring copies of "Boy's Life" .

― Mike Hanle y, Monday, 8 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Then I'd have those damned statues staring at me. I need to go someplace no man has ever gone.

― Ally, Monday, 8 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

The phone is ringing and the clock says 4am If it's your friends then I don't want to hear from them Please leave a number and a message at the tone Or you can just go on and leave me alone And I Don't Want To Know If You Are Lonely Don't want to know if you are less than lonely Don't Want To Know If You Are Lonely Don't want to know don't want to know Don't want to know.

― Bob, Monday, 8 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Phone a friend.

― Madchen, Monday, 8 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Ask the audience.

inside my brane, where all my friends are

Whitby.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Friday, 21 March 2003 13:36 (twenty-two years ago)

To Matt, IRC or the phone. I've been struck lately by how I don't really have an obvious 'gang' to go round the pub with any more, just lots of scattered (but wonderful) friends. And not living in a house share also cuts down on instantly accessible 'people time'. But I hardly ever mourn it.

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 21 March 2003 15:19 (twenty-two years ago)

to sleep, perchance to dream.

― hstencil, Friday, 21 March 2003 15:23 (twenty-two years ago)

I need to go someplace no man has ever gone.

Bea Arthur's bosom?

Hahahaha

I was funny.

Real ans: to bed!

― Sarah (starry), Friday, 21 March 2003 15:33 (twenty-two years ago)

get obsessed about the wrong people, wonder why i threw away those paracetamols, play cat power album over and over again. death in a transport cafe in hillingdon.

― Marcello Carlin, Friday, 21 March 2003 15:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I drive. Maybe get a milkshake.

― bnw (bnw), Friday, 21 March 2003 15:57 (twenty-two years ago)

At the Peach Pit?

― Mary (Mary), Saturday, 22 March 2003 04:10 (twenty-two years ago)

The lake; this one abandoned church nearby; the jogging path; the Galleria (not sure why, I don't shop or even look). Without solitude I quickly go mental.

― Aaron A., Saturday, 22 March 2003 04:16 (twenty-two years ago)

the park behind the observatory, in the middle of the night. during the day, i prefer to play my guitar in my bedroom to be happy with myself.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 22 March 2003 04:43 (twenty-two years ago)

i go down by the water and am occasionally hassled by hooligans which reinforces why its not so bad to be lonely in the first place

― jess (dubplatestyle), Saturday, 22 March 2003 05:22 (twenty-two years ago)

(Mary: only if Brandon's working that night.)

― bnw (bnw), Saturday, 22 March 2003 05:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Why, I go sit on the can for a couple of hours, of course!

― Scaredy Cat, Saturday, 22 March 2003 06:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Gas up the car and make a beeline down CA-62 past Josuha Tree and 29 Palms, straight through to the remains of Rice AFB. Play Spacemen 3 VERY LOUD on the car stereo, howl at the moon, and then drag on back - stopping at Jeremy's Coffee for coffee and a BLAT (bacon, lettuce, avocado, and tomato) sandwich.

― Chris Barrus (xibalba), Saturday, 22 March 2003 06:29 (twenty-two years ago)

The canal. Though more recently, down to the Thames. For some reason, looking at water is something that I like to do when I am low.

― kate (suzy), Saturday, 22 March 2003 09:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Water has immeasurable cheer-up power.

― j.lu (j.lu), Saturday, 22 March 2003 22:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I fart around on the Internet. And generally still lonely. Doh.

― ChristineSH (chrissie1068), Saturday, 22 March 2003 22:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Go for walks around town. Or the park with my dog.

― jel -- (jel), Saturday, 22 March 2003 22:41 (twenty-two years ago)

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Saturday, 22 March 2003 22:44 (twenty-two years ago)

liquor store.

― Millar (Millar), Saturday, 22 March 2003 22:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey, I used to do that. But it was making me very unwell...

― ChristineSH (chrissie1068), Saturday, 22 March 2003 22:55 (twenty-two years ago)

To the Estrela d'Alfama cafe, Alfama, Lisbon.

― Gatinha (rwillmsen), Saturday, 22 March 2003 23:06 (twenty-two years ago)

To Ship's Lounge where the bartender is opening my beer the moment she sees me step in the door. I know every other person on the stools and they know me. There's Ruth Brown, Hank Williams, and Bob Wills on the jukebox. By the second beer the loneliness is becoming a distant memory.

― That Girl (thatgirl), Saturday, 22 March 2003 23:51 (twenty-two years ago)

to the kitchen or the phone.

― Maria (Maria), Sunday, 23 March 2003 06:49 (twenty-two years ago)

i am within walking distance of a power plant. the bike trail goes almost underneath it. adjoing the plant is the river and a view of DC. very beautiful.

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Sunday, 23 March 2003 06:53 (twenty-two years ago)

its scary to think that someone could quite easily figure out where i live from the above post, but i am willing to take the risk i guess.

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Sunday, 23 March 2003 06:56 (twenty-two years ago)

to the internet!

damn! i think that was like my first ILE post ever.

― phil-two (phil-two), Sunday, 23 March 2003 06:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Ship's Lounge

I finally get to hang out here more often, once I move next month. The only local place I might like more is Slip Inn, or upstairs at the Cavern (best jukebox in Dallas). Cosmo's has a good juke too, but it gets too crowded. Bar of Soap on an afternoon is good. I might actually like some of these bars better than any in Austin.

― Aaron A., Sunday, 23 March 2003 07:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Slip Inn's too yuppified. Same thing has happened to Cosmo's. Bar of Coke. . .well enough said. But I do venture to all these places. Aaron, I'll buy you a beer at Ships when you move.

― That Girl (thatgirl), Sunday, 23 March 2003 07:18 (twenty-two years ago)

You're on. I've only ever been to the Slip Inn or Bar of Coke during the daytime, though, and it was just the locals, mostly middle-aged, which was cool. If SLip Inn is as bad as Louie's, then...

― Aaron A., Sunday, 23 March 2003 07:33 (twenty-two years ago)

in the winter: the internet
in the summer: cycling out of town

― erik, Sunday, 23 March 2003 14:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't think I'm lonely much. I'm kinda antisocial.

― teeny (teeny), Sunday, 23 March 2003 16:41 (twenty-two years ago)

To bed for a snuggle.

― Lara (Lara), Monday, 24 March 2003 17:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Down to the end of Lonely St and Heartbreak Hotel.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Monday, 24 March 2003 17:17 (twenty-two years ago)

There too, obviously *wink*

― Lara (Lara), Monday, 24 March 2003 17:24 (twenty-two years ago)

It's so much easier to bear being lonely during the day time. Except if I'm somewhere I can't leave like at work especially alone in the dark at horrible work. I don't really know how to answer 'cause I'm almost always lonely.

― terabithian, Tuesday, 25 March 2003 03:46 (twenty-two years ago)

I used to be lonely but I got it out of my system.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Tuesday, 25 March 2003 07:43 (twenty-two years ago)

how?

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Tuesday, 25 March 2003 11:20 (twenty-two years ago)

To the phone or to bed.

― smee (smee), Tuesday, 25 March 2003 11:25 (twenty-two years ago)

And, of course, ILX!

― smee (smee), Tuesday, 25 March 2003 11:25 (twenty-two years ago)

how?

If I had an answer, I'd bottle it.
