Spending tonight alone? Let's ring in the new year together and keep each other company! Feel free to vent here too.

I listen to the club MOGRA stream every NYE - it’s going to be on for a few more hours on Twitch. It’s a mix of anime/dance/kpop music

>What are you watching/playing tonight? Will you be doing anything else?
I may listen to some music this evening on my headphones, but mostly to drown out noisy neighbours. Enjoying Altın Gün at the moment.
>What are you eating?
Got some veggie chilli for dinner and using new years as an excuse to eat a bunch of junk like popcorn, chocolate, sweets.
>How come you're alone/not celebrating? (if you want to share)
I don't see the point in celebrating new years, i don't like parties and enjoy being alone. The only thing that bothers me is all the noise people make (I'm a massive grump)
>Are you looking forward to 2023 or nah?
Nah. I am looking forward to the holiday season being over though and getting back to my usual routine, somewhat.

I was invited to spend it with a scrote 'friend' but I know he just asked so I'd have to sleep at his place. So I'm peacefully spending it at home, I don't like noise and firework so I'll probably cook some pasta, watch a movie and go to sleep at 11 pm (don't forget the earplugs). Nominate me for party pooper of the year, I don't give a shit. I had a good 2022, hope 2023 will be good too! Happy NYE nonnies!

I spent last NYE with a friend for the first time in a while and I loved it but we had a falling out this year and now I'm alone again. We're both working through it though and I'm not upset that I'm alone like I used to be. I'm tripping balls on acid rn so that might be why. I'm cuddling my dog and I know that everything is going to be okay in the end. I love you nonas I know things are going to go great for all of us

My bf's younger sister died completely unexpectedly last month (ended up being a heart condition) and in reaction to this he hasn't stopped drinking since. He's high functioning enough that he's still able to somewhat manage his most pressing obligations but behind closed doors …it's rough. Told him that I didn't want to bring in the new year with him if we're not sober and he spat back some shit about how he was looking forward to us "reconnecting" and "having a good time" lmao FUN!!!

I'm fine spending NYE alone, what bothers me is how others react to it. Having to hide that I have no plans because they'll give me a pitiful look. At the moment I'm not in the mood to hang out with anyone or stand around drinking pretending I'm so hyped for 2023. If my life is sorted out by the next NYE, I'll want to be around others and celebrate. But not this year.

100%. i always spend NYE alone and used to lie to people that i was doing something just so they wouldn't pity/ask questions. i just don't like parties and socialising, there is nothing sad or worrying about that.

earlier this month, a co-worker told me she was spending christmas alone with her cat. i asked her "do you enjoy christmas alone?" and she said she was pleased to get a non-pitying response. she felt completely neutral about christmas alone. alone doesn't always mean lonely.

I pulled down my blinds and blasting music. This year I won't be looking at the fireworks, I hate the sounds anyways and they just remind me that I'm spending (another) NYE alone. I'm not sad about it, it's kind of whatever at this point but I don't need it rubbed in tbh. I'm making dinner and after, I'm gonna play some games, maybe draw or do something creative on my puter. Oh, and I made a lemon pig since I found out it's a thing from another nonny. Hope my next year is a bit better than the last, and I wish you all the same.

Fireworks seriously trigger me. Not just dealing with the sound myself but their actual existence. All that fucking noise just to see some lights in the sky that last 2 seconds, but cause hours of anxiety for animals, humans and particularly those with PTSD. Pointless and irritating.

Meanwhile, I adopted a cat 6 months ago and she is the first pet I've ever had that doesn't give a shit about fireworks or loud noises in general. But she is also missing an ear so maybe that helps, in this one scenario.

Same well I got cats, and was planning to do a stream. I have never really celebrated new years, it is uneventful every single time. I hate that, I want to have a nice party. I know a lot of people but one it's hard to get them together for a party and two they're kinda boring, like we are on different wave lengths, it's easy to meet people but so hard for me to really join the social circle. Saw my ex doing the same thing we dod we the same people and yet I am glad I am not there. What does it even mean.. I don't want to be alone but I don't want to be around people

exactly, i really hate that mindset of seconds of fun > health of animals and sanity of fellow humans. my old neighbour's pet rabbit had a heart attack and died from the stress of the fireworks a few years back and it still makes me so sad to think about.
and the "let people have fun" response makes me so annoyed - no YOU let people have fun (by not subjecting them to having to spend the evening in a state of anxiety or consoling a pet or loved one).

I might spend it alone, but I could also meet a few people at a meetup event, I'll know a few of them decently well. It would be nice to go for 2 or so hours, then leave at 11 but I suppose I'll either go til 1 or not go at all. I broke it off with my FWB last night because new year new me, who I made plans with, and it'd be nice to kiss someone else. I hate clubs etc which is where they plan to go for midnight itself, before that a quiet bar.

Alternatively I could go to an overlook of the nearby city and watch the fireworks. Cons of that is it's very near said FWBs house and I might give in and go get eaten out, and I need to go through a forest which is pretty spooky at midnight.

Lastly I could just stay inside. It's my first year without a close friend or partner to spend it with so I'm a little lost. Last year I spent it with my bff in my home country just watching the odd fireworks and we were in some random suburb when midnight struck, it felt magic in its own way. It's not so bad to spend it alone, I wish I didn't get so keyed up about these milestone events. I've never been able to treat these days as normal days, like I MUST make a big deal of the solstices, halloween, easter, my birthday, new years etc.

>What are you watching/playing tonight? Will you be doing anything else?
I'm probably going to be hanging out with my family, and their friend. we usually eat food and sit around the dinner table watching whatever is on tv, and then we'll go pop some fireworks. i think my sister and her boyfriend are coming tonight too. I don't know what else we'll do after that… maybe go to the bar? I'm not sure. I'm not counting on it.
>What are you eating?
I ate a oatmeal cream cookie a bit ago, and i just got done eating a chocolate covered vanilla ice cream bar with crispies on it.
>Are you looking forward to 2023 or nah?
I'm looking forward to it because i'm gonna get my first job. I hope that my life will get better because of it and it'll motivate me to do things, and to play the games that I brought but haven't picked up.

Not technically alone since I'm spending it with my brother and our cat, but I still feel some kind of loneliness since I spent some previous NYE with friends and I had so much fun. There was a group of people I often celebrated events with but it got harder with Covid, and after shit happened I think I've become persona non grata. The events of the ongoing decade have turned me cynical and I'm not looking forward to the upcoming years, so I really don't feel like celebrating what's going to hit us.
But that's fine for now, at least the evening will be nice, my cat is cuddling against my leg while my brother is cooking pizza, we'll get drunk while playing video games and watch RLM videos.

Yes and no. I have a lot of work to do. I think this year I have the tools I need to change careers and be happier. So it's going to be a lot of hard work for me aka suffering. But life is always about suffering, it's just this time I'm going to suffer in the "right" way that will actually pay off instead of what I usually do. I'm done putting my dreams on hold and putting energy into other people who never return the favor. I need to focus my energy on myself, no one else is going to lift me up but me.

I'm kind of jealous of you anons who get to stay at home. My friend was going to an event with her boyfriend but he dumped her and I felt bad so I told her I'd go. Typically when I spend new years alone I get myself a tall boy modello, a slice of cake, and get some sort of takeout for dinner. I hope you all have a cozy night!

I have a huge backlog of manga. I want to finish all one shots and series where I need only one more volume until I'm on the most recent volume by tomorrow, which is still quite a lot, so I'm not sure if I can make it. I was on the lookout for Kouhaku live streams, but as I couldn't find any, I settled on some Disco Deluxe NYE Music Mix on the radio lol.

I will watch for the first time some iconic Soviet New Years films, as they celebrated that more than Christmas.

i'm gonna go for a nature walk tomorrow if it's not raining. every time i go on one i realise it's the best treatment for depression (but it's hard motivating yourself to get out in the first place).

it's meant to be strong wind and rain tomorrow where I am but I am holding out for a sunny spell. I can handle a little rain.
I'm really lucky cos I am near a woodland and a coastline, within a 40 minute walk, or i can get the bus. it's really nice to have beautiful scenery nearby, so i gotta make the most of it.
how long does it take you to see nature?

Oh wow, coastline, it's my dream to live close to the coast someday, and be able to see the sea anytime easily, I'd make most of it in your place too. For me it takes at least a hour of a bus ride to reach a proper forest, there's a river just 5 minutes away but it's superclose to a busy street too so it doesn't have that calming effect unfortunately. Stay vigilant for a good weather opening then!

I'm not spending NYE alone (i'm with a member of my family) but i relate to not being happy and celebrating. Tbh i've never celebrated NY in my life. Every year i'm just sitting numbly and watching NY concert medley of all shitty artists from my country. We made a salad, but it was meh. we watched the fireworks for like 2 minutes out of the window. I'm a drug addict so i planned getting high as usual but i'm feeling unwell so i probably won't tonight.
Idk what is there to celebrate, why are people happy. just next shitty year of being depressed and failing for me. Happy New Year to you nonnies, hug your animals bc they're sure having way worse time than us tonight

I'm eating a bunch of fast food, smoking weed, and I just opened a bottle of Golden Monkey.
I was invited to a few gatherings but I like waking up early on New Years Day and having a productive start to the year. A little part of me wishes I went out and FOMO but at the same time I'm probably having just as much fun by myself and I'm saving money. New Years is expensive.

My dog is doing fine now, she was a bit anxious earlier but the fireworks have stopped already. I hope your cat is fine too! Hopefully she/he can forgive you for making all that noise haha

happy new year, nonnies! still early evening where i'm at, but a lot of you are already celebrating.

>What are you watching/playing tonight? Will you be doing anything else?
i decided to stay in for the entire day and i'm just playing morrowind/tes legends and a couple otome games in between meals. also watching a nostalgic nye comedy special from my home country.
>What are you eating?
i made crepes this morning and i'm also having a festive salad and baked chicken with cheesy potatoes. and obviously tangerines and lots of chocolate.
>How come you're alone/not celebrating?
i am a giga introvert and live in a country where nye isn't widely celebrated. couldn't go home this year because of politics, but it's not the first time i get to stay in by myself. i did some video chats with family last night and ordered gifts for them from an online store, so we're still connected.
>Are you looking forward to 2023 or nah?
kind of, but i don't think it will be much better than 2022. i have some milestones planned, but nothing grandiose will likely happen. i just hope it doesn't suck as much as this year, for all of us who got fucked over by corona/war/economy/general 2022 shenanigans.

Okay actually I spent the new year with my neighbors/landlords and it was great! A lot of food, champagne, confetti, fireworks from all around for a good ten minutes, only downside is the smoke lingering for over an hour afterwards. It's 2am now and still smoky. I have a kitten purring on me, I'm a bit tipsy, sleepy and relaxed. Great year let's fucking go!!!!

I know it's retarded, but I'm really excited for Adult Swim's season 1 marathon of FLCL. It's been long enough since the last time I saw it that I've been excited for it for the last few days.
>What are you eating?
I was gonna save some wings for midnight, but I ended up eating them all for supper. Might have a cup of hot chocolate or spiced chai at midnight instead.
>How come you're alone/not celebrating? (if you want to share)
If I could celebrate with my sister or cousin I would, but otherwise I'm happy being alone. I could technically have tried going to my boyfriend's house, but he hasn't even tried reaching out to me this week despite being on vacation so he can fuck right off.
>Are you looking forward to 2023 or nah?
Yes, mainly because the Mario movie and new Zelda game are coming out this year. I'm also looking forward to using my new gym membership literally the only benefit I got with my new job kek to go swimming every week.

I spent tonight alone in my room due to my own psychotic bullshit. It's the early morning hours and i finished a journal entry for my journal i've been keeping off an on since 2018. I have an ongoing schizo fear that i will die and my family will find my journal in the notes app on my phone and start reading through it so I almost didn't write this entry but if my mom reads it after i die it's her own fucking fault stop snooping mom.

I am mentally unwell and unstable. Also I want to fuck her so bad I can feel my skin disintegrating

My bf took a huff with me last night so I spent it alone with his cat. This is the second time he's huffed with me over nothing but he bought me an xbox at Christmas so what's his deal

Spent NYE with my bf's friends upon his request but wish I had spent it alone, sipping champagne while playing video games or something. It just reinforced my feeling that my social skills have deteriorated beyond repair and felt like a freak among humans

Spent lastnight alone watching old concerts on YouTube. Didn't drink for the whole of 2022 but had a few just for the tradition. I was in a store yesterday and didn't know I was too early for alcohol sale hours but I kinda know the guy and he put it through anyway. Saved me from having to head out again in the rain. Rare cool scrote moment and I had a pretty chill night afterwards. I was asleep by 12:30

I ended up spontaneously going to the city that's an hour away and went high up which includes walking through a forest but the way was all lit up and it was busy with people. It was a beautiful lookout and I could see the whole citys fireworks, then there was a firework display right beside us too which I wasn't expecting. It was a nice eventful way to bring in the new year.

I'm back with an update nobody asked for. I made a cup of candy cane hot chocolate just in time for the marathon to start, and while I still enjoyed the show and laughed at it several times, the radfem teachings I didn't have during my last viewing made me cringe at the fanservice. Oh, and my boyfriend finally texted me just before 12:30 to wish me a happy new year. As of 6 hours later, I still haven't texted him back, but I feel kind of bad because I realized after my first post that I did actually see him on Monday. It's just that he blew me off when I tried to call him and said we'd talk later, then didn't respond to my texts when I DID try to talk later. So he can still fuck right off for at least a few more hours, and I'm wishing all the lovely anons using this site a happy and scrote-free new year.

All sad anons and supportive anons and happy-alone anons, thank you for making and being in this thread. It helped me yesterday. Now the new day came, I had a dream of leaving everything behind, and even though I know I can't it made me feel somehow calmer.
Take care and I hope lolcow will not disappear; in days like this, this place feels like all I have, no matter how pathetic it may sound

I'm having a hard time accepting that the 2020 virus was 3 YEARS ago already.

My friends nearly started arguing over a cake we were trying to bake yesterday, so now I almost wish I spent the NYE alone. Plus one of them slept on a one of these couches you can turn into a bed and wouldn't stop pushing me and snoring super loud so I barely slept. I wouldn't have been able to anyway because I live with my family and they stayed home so it's whatever.
