Good morning sweet Pea! If I feel lonely, I go someplace where I can be out and about with other people. On Sunday morning I went to the South Coast Plaza, (Huge place) before it opened at about 9:00 AM I walked around the entire Plaza, and looked in the stores, some with employees inside, getting ready to open and others still closed and lighted.
I sent several hours there and then went to Starbucks, and got coffee and breakfast and saw that there were several people out doing what I was doing simply to get out and see what others are doing at that hour of the morning.
When I lived in Ohio, before 911, I went to the local airport and watch the passengers and others in the airport coming and going, and it gave me a "lift' just to be out with others.
If you feel lonely, don't stay 'alone', get out and see what there is to see where you live and it will lift your spirits.
Good luck sweetie.

I watch tv or have a few conversations online and stuff, you don't feel lonely if you keep the mind busy, that's the secret sauce to it I suppose
What Guys Said
Distract myself until it's time for bed. I don't have many friends, just a few people that I consider friends but we don't hang out after work or regularly (in the case of those I don't work with). I mostly have acquaintances that used to be friends or never were friends. Friendships usually end up where I'm the initiator everytime, and we eventually drift apart. I just get rejected by every woman I'm interested in (I haven't been interested in anyone in six years). So, I just do anything alone to get through the time I'm stuck with. If I had my way, I'd work for twelve hours every day, Monday through Sunday.
depends on why I feel that way. if I'm alone, id fill the void which is easily done with connect with others, reconnecting to God or doing something physical. I seem to find people to talk to easily enough.
if I feel "left out" or excluded, I change my thinking to be appreciative and find what I can give or a way to engage.
Think about how nice it'd be to have someone spend a few hours with me, maybe cry a bit, or come close to it. I've been alone most of my life. Especially the last 2.5 years, since my aunt died. The only visits I get up here since then are from a couple bunnies (one or two adults and a baby bunny or two) that want some bread. I haven't even played cards with anyone since mom died 7 years ago!!
As a guy there is not much in the way of sympathy forthcoming. So I just have to get on with things. Work on my weaknesses and get out there and meet new people. Doing the difficult work, not resorting to apps, distractions or whatever.
Well I either start building something fixing something or if I'm being lazy I'll get online and try to find the friend to chat with
Talk to my cat, but if he’s being an asshole I’ll ring my girlfriend. If she’s unavailable I’ll try to distract myself with some tv or go on a walk or something until I have company again.
i imagine some sort of supportive character in my head
I really don't feel lonely.
I at times do like my alone time, as I tend to be very busy all the time, so I don't have time to be lonely.Watch movies, talk with mt friends, sing or listen to music or just surf the net and spend some time here on gag...
Listen to music on my YouTube channel.
