First off–I’ve been contemplating making my anonymous blog known. People know I blog, but they don’t know where. However, I have been holding back more lately due to the fact that I think the guy I quit working for (who knows about my blog) could/would use it against me. I’ve lost that piece of freedom in blogging, which I used as therapy, because the fear of my issues being known publicly looms. I’ve recently been thinking of starting a private blog or another anonymous one, just so I can be ‘real’ again. I love that you’re contemplating the same, but reversed from me.

As for the word “lonely”, I’m right there with ya sister. *See my most recent post.* For me, I struggle with wanting to do nice things for someone, like washing their car or surprising them with tickets to a baseball game. I LOVE doing these kinds of things, but when I don’t have someone I’m ‘with’ to do them for, I come across as creepy and stalkerish. In return, this makes me feel lonely.

Know that you’re not alone in feeling lonely…if that helps any. =)

Always blog for yourself. Know why you’re blogging. And stick with that.

wow.. your post really touched me. i can understand the missing sparkle- i feel that way too, and so many people ask me why i don’t smile.. i have everything to be happy, but sometimes I feel… just lonely. And I’m even married with 2 kids! Crazy.. maybe it’s a 20-something thing? I sure hope so. And about your blog.. I typically write things that may turn people off, but I started my blog for myself, if you’re thinking of doing it commercially, then I can understand your concern. The anonimity would be way too hard for me, I share too much, and I don’t like to feel I’m writing inside a box. But if you want to.. I say go for it!

Anonimity is the coward’s way out if you want to speak from the heart. Be honest and unmerciful until the end. You rock, girl.

I know what you mean. Same deal over here, although it always hits quite randomly. Like on the minibus home last night. Luckily, it’s only been fleeting every now and again. xoxo

I only recently found out that my grandfather had once hoped I’d never lose my flair, or my spark. My grandma told me a little bit before her birthday back in May. I learned that he thought that I was the grandchild with the most flair and individuality, and the spark to carry it off. He died about five years ago, and I feel like I’m disappointing him because I did lose my spark for a while. I’ve only just started to get it back.

I kind of know what it’s like to feel lonely and like you’re missing something. I won’t claim it’s in the same capacity to how you’re feeling though. I have a shared anonymous blog with a close friend. We don’t update it regularly as we both have regular blogs, but it helps for us to be able to vent somewhere we know we won’t be questioned or judged.

Ditto – to everything you said about feeling lonely. Some times the feeling is more acute than others.

Wow this is a great post and touches on a lot of good issues. I wish I could be more anonymous, honestly, but the thought of keeping another blog going makes me tired already. Don’t feel lonely. I love you tons, you’re my sweetheart and I love you no matter what
