CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Hey guys,
I know I have posted many prayer requests about my lack of friends or friends in general, but here is another. All the friends that I have right now are totally ruining their lives with drugs and other things. I feel like they are starting to hate me because I feel like they are doing the wrong thing. Its making me feel really alone.. I have been trying to make new friends (while keeping the old ones) but its either they are Bi and get a crush on me, or they mean because I'm different and shy. I have been going to youth for about half a year now and its getting no were, in fact they just tease me and put me down. please pray that I will keep faith in God that I will some day find someone that I can at least talk to in person and I can get along with, and prey that I feel liek I have some worth because right now I feel like I have none.

Thanks ^^

Just to clear it up...its not that CAAers aren't friends, but I want people that I can talk to in person and do stuff with too.

I'll be praying that you find the right group of friends Hang in there and I'm sure you will ^__^

Thanks Tsukuyomi ^^

Hang in there Makachop. I was thinking about you yesterday and prayed for you and for some great friends for you. I will continue to do so. Good for you for not doing the things your friends are doing. That's really important.

God bless! Hang in there! If you need to talk feel free to pm me anytime.

Loneliness is one of the most difficult states of being to deal with precisely because it is unnatural. Aristotle glimpsed this truth: man is a creature naturally meant to live in community with other men. Human beings are created in the image of God, and God has never been alone, even prior to creation. There has always been love and community between the three persons of the trinity, forever and ever. So, the need for love and community are in our DNA, if you will.

The reason I am saying all of this is to emphasize that neither you (nor anyone else) should minimize the emotional state of loneliness. It is not something so small. Know that I am praying for you maka. May this time strengthen your trust in Christ, and may He grant you Earthly companionship.

Thanks Subtledoctor, I have to admit it does make me feel a little guilty feeling when I'm lonely. Just because I know that there are worse things but it is hard and I need to learn to be honest with myself. I tend to hide emotions.

Hey, no problem; it's what friends are for, no?

There's no need to suppress your emotions. Christ did not; He fully embraced His own humanity. Jesus wept, he got violently angry, was so distressed that He sweat blood. He never said that we should stuff down our feelings or not allow ourselves to feel them. Now, that doesn't mean we have to act on our feelings all the time or share them all the time with everyone, but we certainly should not suppress them. Let yourself feel them and, as you said, be honest with yourself. It sucks being lonely, and that's OK.

Am still praying for you, and, forgive me if this sounds strange but, to prevent severe loneliness, always feel free to PM me. I will get back to you as promptly as I am able.
