I'm working from home alone, and I bet I'm not the only one here.

Sometimes, I end up in complete social isolation.. it can get really, really lonely.. The fact that I moved to another country to evade taxes doesnt exactly help (no friends here lol).

Do you guys know that feel?
As far as I can tell, loneliness is the most horrible feeling in life (next to the feeling when you have crap really bad and no toilet). It feels like I'm in a prison (hard to explain).

The problem is, actually I don't really want friends...
Look, I'm a nerd and I'm well off. Friends either use me for my money or they are too stupid for me and waste my time.. it's my honest opinion, but still I feel so lonely.. Or well, at least 80% of people are like this, and I don't know how to find the 20% that I could get along with, since those ppl are probably sitting infront of their computer as well.

Isn't there any solution, that will just MAKE ME FEEL BETTER, without wasting 70% of my time on some stupid social contacts?

Heck, I just want to work, sleep, work.... isn't my human body/brain capable of doing that? Because I can't work productively anymore.. I just feel depressed :(

No, because every single fucking human needs some sort of social interaction. We're not robots. Deal with it.

Ever been to any meetups? F5 & STM meetup next weekend in Amsterdam would be a good way to learn intelligent people who're active in the industry. So it's like building relationships and business contacts, plus it's in Amsterdam. win win win.

honestly, not really. for whatever reason, i just don't get lonely... not sure i even know what it feels like.

just last night i watched a documentary on Dick Proenneke, a guy who at age 51 moved to the alaskan wilderness, built a cabin by himself & spent the next 35 years enjoying it alone. The Story of Dick Proenneke and how he built a cabin by hand in the wilderness, DVD and VHS (not a DR). great show, if you ever get a chance to see it.

Reinventing Your Life: The Breakthough Program to End Negative Behavior...and Feel Great Again by Jeffrey E. Young - Reviews, Discussion, Bookclubs, Lists

Sounds like you have the mistrust and abused lifetrap. You don't believe people can like you for you and that people will only use you or hurt you, hence why you don't let people get close to you; this is also why you feel alone.
 
You have no other interests? Sports, games, books, outdoors? Nothing?

Going through life alone is no fun. Some people can do it, but I'm thinking it's few and far between.

You should pursue some of your other interests. Take up a hobby that includes some sort of social interaction. At the very least you'll have other interests besides working. Also, if you feel like something holds you back from seeking social interaction, maybe it's time to see a therapist. You may have some underlying mental issue that's creating this loneliness in your life.

You don't want to live alone. There are a million reasons why. Enjoy life for what it is, especially if you have the financial freedom to do it.
 
Get an office space. Even if you stroll in at noon, it will be great for your self-esteem and productivity. Plus, when you want to, you will be interacting with like-minded entrepreneurs working in the offices neighboring you. Regus has "serviced" office spaces with transferable leases; plus it provides you access to their 1,600+ locations' business lounges worldwide in case you're travelling. Alternatively, you can try working out of a coffee shop - but without a dedicated office space, I feel it's likely you'll just succumb to your old ways and starting feeling beat down again.

If you really didn't want friends, you wouldn't feel lonely. This obvious contradiction, coupled with your low post count, makes me think you are just pity trolling.

A troll or someone that hasn't found himself yet. Maybe he still has to learn all the virtues of life, he has to find how life really works. To OP, I suggest you to find a girl that fills in your loneliness gap. Find a nerdy gamer girl that wants to sit in front of your PC and play games with you. Fuck from time to time, cuddle and do all the other crap couples do. And as someone else suggested - go to meetups if you really feel lonely. I'm sure you can find some cool people there, most of them are the same like you ;)

Ok. I admit that the part about "I don't want to have friends" is pure self pity.. maybe frustration.
To formulate that better: I knew some people that are "very social". They are on the phone 10 times per day with random friends, they meet people 2-3 times per day, they take drugs, they can't breathe 10 minutes without facebook.
Still an extreme example, but people my age mostly waste their time and do "stupid things". And that is something I want to distance myself from. I want to grow my business and to educate myself, and I'm looking for likeminded people.

Ibanez | Jan, this contradicts with the story that drave posted (which seems very interesting btw)

This is very, very good advise. Thank you :)
 
Step 1: Figure out what qualities you'd like your future friends to have.
Step 2: Find out where people with these qualities hang out.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit.

meetup.com

There are at least 4 different entrepreneur meetups in my city that meet from weekly to monthly, all filled with like minded self starters. I'd be willing to bet that in a city close to you that you could find the same.
