    The older you get, the more lonely you become, maybe your values are different from your circle.

    1. The older you get, the more cautious you are, the more forward-looking you are, and the more fragile you are. Growing up takes away not only time, but also the courage that was not afraid of losing at the beginning.

    Second, no one has ever told me that when you grow up, you may only do a bad job, talk about a bad relationship, and live a bad life.

    3. At first, we pretended to understand in confusion; Later, we pretended to be confused. It's not that we want to live in vain, it's just that many things, as soon as we exert ourselves, we will debunk them, and once we debunk them, we will lose them.

    Fourth, some people disperse while walking, some love fades after living, too many people become friends with likes, and even change their nicknames and avatars a few times, and they forget each other in the rivers and lakes.

    Fifth, drinking lonely wine, blowing the wind of freedom, waiting for a person who has no return date, and dreams only of himself for the rest of his life.

    6. There are hundreds of names in the address book, but I don't know who to talk to; There are many friends on WeChat, but I am sad but I don't know who to go with. Because: there are not many people who really understand you, and even fewer people who really love you.

    Seventh, I used to meet the heartbeat and flirt directly, but now that I'm older, I'm afraid to do anything, it seems that in addition to fighting the landlord to dare to scream, I don't even dare to say that I like it.

    8. When you're unhappy, you always want to do something, such as cutting your hair short, running ten kilometers, and deleting all your moments and Weibo. And in fact, you can only live well, life is not easy, take care of yourself.

    9. Slowly learn that a person bears in the wind, not expecting anyone's hand, the world is unpredictable, people's hearts are unpredictable, you can carry it yourself, don't make a noise, you are full of grievances, in others it may just be funny and hypocritical.

    1. People's energy is limited, and they don't have the time and energy to take care of unnecessary interpersonal relationships. Therefore, the feelings between people begin to weaken. Don't forget, relationships take time, energy, and money to maintain.

    You are in the workplace, and your customer relationship needs to be maintained; At home, your family relationships also need to be maintained. Those family relationships that are not well maintained have finally become strangers. 2. Interpersonal relationships are becoming more and more fragile, and a little mistake may result in the loss of a friend for many years.

    In today's society, most interpersonal relationships are maintained by interests. Once the interests are not maintained, the interpersonal relationship will be lost. 3. The faster you grow, the more knowledge and insight you have, the more you will look at things or the world from a different perspective than others, which will lead to fewer and fewer people who understand and understand you, and naturally, fewer people will interact with you.

    People are accustomed to judging others with their own way of thinking and cognition, and when they believe that others are not the same kind as themselves, they begin to reject them from the heart, and the final result is that those former good friends also begin to part ways. 4. The number of friends is decreasing, but the quality of friends is increasing, which also shows that you tend to be rational about your social needs. Immature people want to have a lot of friends, thinking all day long that "more friends are easier to walk", what is the final result?

    No matter how many friends you have, you still need to walk your own way. Many times, it's not that you have more friends and that your road is better, and your friends start to grow. Another possibility is that when your social needs become more rational, you will find that you can see fewer and fewer people, and fewer and fewer people can look at you.

    At this time, it means that you need to pursue a high-quality social circle. 5. High-quality social interaction is better than all unreliable interpersonal relationships. When you are young, many people like to drink with friends at a table; When you mature, your heart is extremely repulsive to this kind of occasion.

    When you no longer pursue this kind of occasion, it means that you have matured and know what kind of social interaction you want to pursue.

    First, the older you get, the freer you become, the more lonely you become.

    When we were young, we always longed to grow up quickly, because when we grew up, we could escape from our parents, and when we grew up, we were tall and strong, financially rich, and could do all kinds of things we wanted. But more than ten years later, we found that most things are not under our control, on the surface it seems that we are freer, but we are bound by many aspects: conflicts between lovers, conflicts between colleagues, leaders put small shoes on you, each kind of restraint makes people breathless.

    And when we are separated from our children's identity and no longer rely on our parents, we have to face all the problems on our own, which can make us feel more lonely.

    The process of human growth is a process of growth of self-strength, which is called the process of individuation. In the process of this incarnation, we will realize that we are separate individuals from others, the world is getting stronger and stronger, and we are becoming smaller and smaller, and we will have a sense of powerlessness and anxiety.

    This pressure of being alone in the world makes us feel even more lonely. From this point of view, freedom and loneliness cannot be satisfied at the same time.

    Second, the faster the development of the market economy, the lower the sense of trust between people.

    In the October 2019 issue of "Advances in Psychological Science", there is an article invited by the editor-in-chief, Professor Xin Zhiqiang from the Department of Psychology of ** University of Finance and Economics, in which he elaborates on the relationship between marketization and interpersonal relationship changes:

    The dynamic attribute of the market encourages people to compete for strength, which will activate people's enthusiasm for wealth creation, but at the same time, it will also cause the popularity of economic man's belief and undermine the optimistic expectations of trusters about human nature. And the rules of the market cannot protect the trusters, so the sense of trust between people becomes worse and worse.

    Chinese trust largely depends on familiar people and familiar relationships. But when we're leaving campus and entering an unfamiliar world of work, trust is hard to build right away. There will be competition between colleagues, there will be division of interests between leaders and subordinates, and customers will sometimes have more or less deceptive behavior.

    The faster the social development, the higher the economic benefits, the lower the sense of trust between people, in the society where the economy is supreme, emotions and emotions will be pushed to the back position, and people will become more and more lonely.

    Third, loneliness is something that no one can escape.

    Philosophy will talk about some illusory and mysterious things, such as loneliness is the fate of people, people are born lonely, and so on, which is not unreasonable from a psychological point of view.

    There is a word in psychology called projection, which refers to the process of unconsciously reflecting our thoughts, emotions, and desires to external things or others in the process of interpersonal interactions.

    As I grew up, I understood more and more that "the older you get, the more lonely you become". In fact, I also understand that I am not getting more and more lonely as I grow up, but I am slowly understanding more and closing myself with loneliness.

    I just want to stay quietly in my closed world and look at the outside world with cold eyes.

    Maybe I don't even remember when I like to be alone once in a while. Silly stay in a quiet corner, do nothing, don't think about anything, just like detached from the real world, quietly breathing the breath of loneliness that belongs to you.

    Not long after, I still had to accept returning to the real world. Get up and leave that corner before. I have re-shouldered the burden of the real world, and the loneliness just now is just that I am tired in the real world.

    Everyone wants to live, and enjoying the solitude of oneself is destined to live longer.

    The more I grew up, the more lonely I became, just because I understood the difficulties of reality. Arm yourself with loneliness in order to better shoulder the responsibilities that you deserve.

    Because people grow older and older, people live more and more transparently, and it is normal for people to like to be quiet and like to be alone.

    The main reason is first of all to look down on the sophistication of human feelings, and the exchanges between people are important in heart-to-heart, but after experiencing the warmth and coldness of human feelings, I found that sincerity is the most rare. Too many people are just superficial friends, and it seems that they have a very good relationship with you, but once interests are involved, the relationship will immediately fall apart, and people's hearts are far from being as pure as we see. When you were young in Kaizhou, you felt that "many friends and many roads", in fact, at this time, each other was just a kind of friendship, and it was not until middle age that you found that you could really help you in trouble, not as much as you thought.

    The second is to think deeply and be more philosophical. The development of intelligence to the best state is one of the main characteristics of psychological maturity in middle-aged people. Intelligence is a person's ability to understand and use the surrounding environment, which includes meticulous logical thinking and all-round ability to do things.

    A person's intellectual maturity is usually reflected in the three aspects of observation, understanding, and thinking. When people reach middle age, they are generally able to observe and understand the nature and interrelationship of objective things more carefully, so that they can see the various connections in the previous inextricably linked things better than young people, so as to find out the fundamental way to solve the problem.

    Hypocrisy, profit, competition. Gradually, I don't dare to trust people easily, and I don't dare to confide in people, so the more lonely I become. When I was young, I didn't have to think about anything, I was carefree, and I seemed to be full of energy every day.

    In the past, there was a distinction between the city and the countryside, but it is not like now, where every house in the city is closed. The main reason why we feel more and more lonely is that as adults we become more and more stingy with our sincerity, so that we don't get it. When we grow up, we have more and more time for ourselves, and we can do more and more things for ourselves, learn to arrange and make good use of our time, learn to discover more joy in life, enrich and strengthen ourselves, and the feeling of loneliness will be farther and farther away from you...

    When you grow up, you must rationally recognize and face the life and world when you grow up, you must learn to support yourself, as long as you are not lonely in your inner fulfillment, you will find that your family, relatives, classmates and friends, lovers and children are actually always there, and the more you grow up, the more lonely you will eventually pass away with the wind and leave you.
