Why do 25-year-old girls feel lonely when they don't work and stay at home? By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

I have weekends off, but they can be pretty lonely. I play with my phone until my eyes hurt, and I really want to find a part-time job during the weekend, but I haven't been able to find one, and that's frustrating.

Hello! I give you a 360-degree hug!

From your simple questions, I can tell that you are a diligent person, and I admire that!

You say you'll be lonely on the weekends? I'm not sure what kind of loneliness you mean: being alone, having nothing to do, or the difficulty of not working? These are three different situations, but I'm excited to help you figure out what you really need!

If you are lonely, it may be that in your subconscious you need a closer relationship, such as a close friend or lover. You may not like crowded places, and you may only be able to find your own value, see yourself, and define who you are in a relationship—and that's a great thing!

If this is the case, I highly recommend the book The Hero's Journey: An Introduction to the Principles of Personalization!

And there's more! You can also look inward, talk to yourself, and feel your own existence. You can even do some sports, such as yoga or meditation, to find a connection with your body.

And there's more! You can also develop an intimate relationship. Often, in a relationship, with a certain reference, it is easier for us to find our own position.

You can also join groups such as sports, reading, hobby groups, etc., to feel yourself in the interaction with others.

And the best part is that you can do this! Cultivate your ability to enjoy solitude. You will have all kinds of relationships in your life, but the most important one is the one you have with yourself.

If you're feeling lonely because you have nothing to do, don't worry! There are plenty of ways to make the most of your time. One great option is to look for volunteer work. You can find all kinds of opportunities at local museums, for example. Or, you can search for volunteer groups in your area and join one. Not only will this keep you busy, but you'll also get to experience the power of a group in a loving atmosphere. It's a win-win!

In the end, if you don't work, you feel bad. But there's no need to worry! This is because you feel that you are only valuable when you are creating value. When you are not working and not creating value, you feel that you are worthless. But there's an easy fix for this! All you have to do is divide your time into time for creating value and time for relaxing and restoring energy that is completely your own.

Life is about balance, and it's a beautiful thing! As political economy teaches us, wages cover the cost of restoring the worker's ability to work, such as rest, and the cost of raising future generations. "The cost of production for a worker is also the value of the means of subsistence necessary for the worker to support himself and his family," so wages naturally cover the cost of rest. In other words, if you work, you have the right to rest, and you can rest with a clear conscience!

I don't know which situation you're in, but either way, I really hope you can enjoy your weekend alone! Imagine this: you're holding a watermelon, in an air-conditioned room, watching TV. Sounds pretty good, right?

And you can also talk to a counselor!

I am a counselor who is often Buddhist and sometimes depressed, but I'm also occasionally positive and motivated! The world and I love you!

Hello, landlord.

I want to help you and get your feedback, letmefly.

The original poster has a weekend off from work but gets lonely. She plays with her phone. She wants to find a part-time job but hasn't found one. I can imagine you feel anxious. I'm here for you.

My friends are similar to you. They often clean up after they come home, or they feel embarrassed. One day she told me that after I got married, my husband didn't do anything when he came home. But why can't she be at ease with it? It turned out that in my friend's original family, everyone had to pay to eat. Although my friend's financial situation has improved after marriage, this idea of having to pay to eat has always existed.

Why does the original poster feel that this weekend must be spent working? Was it like this when you were younger? Although I don't think playing with your phone is a good way to spend your time, you could invite friends to watch a movie or go out for dinner, or go on a trip. What unmet need is behind the desire to work? The original poster should think about it.

The host can also improve himself by taking an online course. He can also use his weekends to recharge and improve his work ability and communication skills.

I hope you find this inspiring. Please leave feedback, attention, and likes.

Hello, landlord. I am confident that my answer will be of some help to you.

From your description, I can tell you are a very positive and motivated person who works hard. You also want to find a part-time job on weekends because you feel guilty when your eyes hurt from playing with your phone.

The host feels lonely on weekends, but playing with the phone is a poor substitute for real company. Going to find a part-time job is a waste of time. There are many other ways to relieve loneliness, refresh the body and mind, and improve yourself.

I believe there are two types of happiness. The first is instant happiness, which is the kind that comes from stimulus to response. This kind of happiness brings us short-lived joy and afterwards we regret wasting our time. Playing with a mobile phone is an example of this kind of happiness. The second kind of happiness is the sense of pleasure accompanied by a sense of accomplishment that comes from achieving a goal or making a breakthrough through one's own efforts. This kind of happiness makes us feel fulfilled and happy.

The reason for this difference is simple: the chemicals produced in our bodies in different situations are also different. One produces dopamine, while the other produces oxytocin, which gives people transient happiness and lasting feelings of well-being.

Do things that give you a sense of achievement and pleasure to relieve loneliness and enrich yourself. Here are a few recommendations:

1. Exercise: Set a reasonable exercise goal, whether indoors or outdoors on the weekend.

Set a goal of walking 5,000 steps a day and doing 10 minutes of exercise on the weekend.

2. Reading: Set a goal to read 20 pages over the weekend and write a book review to discuss your gains and growth.

3. Attend lectures. Take courses that you like or that you need to improve yourself.

This is also a form of companionship. Use courses to accompany yourself and gain new knowledge.

4. Learn new skills. For example, learn a musical instrument or a language you like. You'll feel better and more fulfilled.

You should give yourself a pat on the back for accomplishing these goals through your own efforts.

You should also make time for social interaction. If you don't have a local social circle, call friends and family often to chat. You need a sense of belonging and social activities, or you'll feel very lonely, very bored.

That's all I have to say on the matter. I'm sure you'll find this advice useful. Take care!

Genevieve Page A teacher's creativity is the magic wand that makes learning a delightful adventure.

I totally get how you feel. Weekends should be fun and relaxing, not lonely. Maybe you can try joining some clubs or groups that match your interests to meet new people and fill up your time.

Zelda Thomas The essence of honesty is to always choose truth over convenience.

Looking for a parttime job is tough, especially on weekends when everyone else is also off. Have you thought about freelancing or doing odd jobs through apps? It might give you more flexibility.

It sounds like you're really eager to make the most of your weekends. How about volunteering? It's a great way to stay busy, gain experience, and it can lead to job opportunities too.
