So I have friends. I don’t really go out, but I see them at uni or work. I chat to them through messages as well.

But I just feel so lonely. Like I often ask if someone wants to go out, and it usually falls through.

However, I am desperate to travel. I honestly don’t even care where I go, I just want to go. But whenever I ask friends they seem really keen, and then when we actually plan to book the trip, the say they can’t afford it or they have to do something else.

I’m at the point where I just want to travel by myself, and I really don’t have a problem with that. But my mum is really against it.

I feel that all I do is go to work and go to uni. I don’t go out often, and I’m just so bored and lonely all the time
