  I had to respond to your post when I saw it since it made me giggle to myself. My mother, beautiful, single and almost 50 (looks more like 35) said something VERY similar to me earlier this evening. I try so hard to return the sympathetic ear she so often gives and show support but I can't help to notice how we as human beings are NEVER satisfied. I am not saying that we are greedy, just that we never recognize the beauty of our current situation. With a 4 year old son and a quite often annoyingly needy significant other, I LONG for being lonely and bored! LOL But my mother (and you it seems), are questioning those feelings, longing for companionship. It simply strikes me as humorous that after being so bogged down with the family, raising 2 self-sufficient girls to be women and constantly giving herself to others all the time, she is upset about finally having time to be herself and do whatever strikes her fancy! Live it up, that's my advice to anyone breathing, regardless of their situations. Because no matter what today is, it's bound to change magnitudes by tomorrow. You are the one true enlightenment to yourself- when left alone you may teach yourself something never imagined!

  You know I think that it's important that you realize you are alone and feeling lonely and not surrounded by people and still lonely. I can't tell you how many people are married and still feel lonely. People that have kids and great jobs and are surrounded by people and still feel lonely.

  I think that you need to stop focusing on the lonely part. If you are alone then you need to stop being alone. You need to be where there are people. Get out and get involved in something. Get yourself so busy that you don't have time to think about being so lonely.

  Boredom is easily solved. Keep busy. The busier you are the less bored you will be.

  I have to agree with Poppies! I soooooooo long to be alone. No kids, no job, no responsibilities, just silence and sleep! I guess the grass is always greener on the other side!

  Maybe in 20 years I will feel different again.

  I dont think that you should become used to feelings of loneliness or boredom, but instead just take it for what its worth now, this will not last very long but for now maybe this is that time that you need to take in order to find who YOU really are, you are not ALONE, you just havnt found a way to satisfy yourself and until you take time to get to know who you are and learn about the things you truely want and what really makes you happy,you may never know.Time is of the essence so live it the best way you can and try not puttin to much effort into looking for what you THINK you need but instead be comfortable with what u been blessed with and things will fall into place slowly, but surely.....
