What is wrong with me? What do I put off that makes me unapproachable? I have been with this congregation for nearly a year. And still nobody wants to talk to me.
I attend a ladies’ meeting and do okay there. I have interaction each week. I laugh with the ladies and I leave feeling like there is potential for friends. I go to the weekly small group meeting and I typically feel I am able to participate — that I find a conversation or two. Come Sunday morning, I feel more disconnected than any other time in my life. It is worse than feeling nobody cares if I am there… it is more like nobody even sees me. It must be something in my demeanor. Nobody hardly approaches me. I don’t know who to approach or how either.
It is the time I feel the absolute loneliest. It seems particularly sad because it is at church – when I am with fellow believers.
I am so sorry.
