How will you manage loneliness?

Question

And that is it to.. we know it's a feeling we know it's a choice it's an emotion. And we are the only one that can change that moment
I really like this question because I get to say it out loud is it I think at least for me I have morals values and ethics when I'm with somebody I'm 100% loyal and they can feel that coming from me
But no matter what you have to be 100% honest with yourself
And if I do that I have to ask myself am I lonely and I horny and what am I looking for
And with being honest with myself I'm all the the above.
But it's not my choice to be lonely because that drains you that makes you think too much and it gets you into a pattern the beam Down and Out in a roundabout way and I'm not going to go there so until that moment that I find that person that I'm looking for there might become opportunities to flirt to challenge each other to experience new things to learn about each other and that's what keeps loneliness away and with the understanding did that's what all this is about upfront you can have quite a bit of fun you can experience quite a bit and you can learn quite a bit about yourself and others so that's how I manage loneliness is that experience things with other people get one to do the same thing but the moment did I find that person that just turns me inside out I would probably still flirt until that day
So that's how I handle it I have to be honest with myself and with others I want to experience things with myself and others and I want to grow and I'm not going to sit still waiting for things to happen I'm going to make them happen and if it works out then I'm going to push it to make it work out even better if it's just something that both experiencing to grow to see things in a different light I'm going to do that too
So the only way to manage it is not to have it and the only way not to have it is to do something about it but you have to be 100% honest about it

Some days I lay in bed and just wait for more sleep to come. I have found someone to be with finally but it’s new so the loneliness is still ever present.

It is something I think and cry about more often than I’d like to admit. I have a fear of waking up one day I’m 70 years old, no relationship, no kids, no friends and then I die. I get stuck in a cycle thinking life is all just waiting to die one day. Eventually I’d like to not think that.

Queue sob story but its mostly to deliver my point.

I grew up alone and i was fine with that. People say to love yourself etc that was never my issue. I was a peace it was just as simple as it being just me. people werent around much and it was a very keep yourself to yourself need. I never let people really in later on for various reasons and as other men can understand if you start to it just comes back to burn you so easier to not. Fast forward to 20 some years later, meet somebody. Slowly let them in the cracks and it goes well for some time. Eventually while that didn't come back to burn me there was betrayal and issues as things burned down. Its how it goes things dont work out sometimes that doesn't bother me. That said damn that adjusting back. How i was before was just how it was, then getting into that and having one person I could finally have there and not just physically be literally there... I could stand i a crowd before and be still be alone and it never really bothered me but adjusting back to that feeling has been brutal. I cope by going to work and online. I still keep myself to myself and have no self issues with anything still so i dont go devulging much to the masses. Just the conversation helps me the passing hello or whatever it may be, if im not at work I random add people on apps and just try to strike random conversation or join randoms in games and just listen. I am still at peace I just keep my mind busy now i guess so thats my managment. Hope that helps somebody else.

Deal with it head on. Loneliness is a state of mind, whenever I am alone, which is like almost all the time I don't let it get to me, I keep myself occupied by work.

I work alone, from early morning till late evening, come home to an empty apartment, I don't own pets, so I really have no companions, it doesn't bother me.

Fill your schedule with work, meditate and late night workouts.

Once you realize that you don't need anybody and you always have you for whatever challenges you face through life, you realize that you are never alone.

Telekinetic-Potato · Answer

If you suffer with loneliness you need to learn to love yourself.

Once you understand what that means, you work toward it.

Owning who you are

Being confident. Not just in yourself, but in your happiness

Knowing your purpose helps too

Keep busy. Keep doing something creating something. Crafting your body at the gym. Art. 3 jobs. Meet ups with new dates. Have appointments for car paint jobs. Make a YouTube channel and start posting vids there. Call up old friends. Write a story about your entire life. I don't know there’s always something to do when you have plans.
You can’t get lonely if you have plans and future ideas of your life.

Kaamraj · Answer

As a man I think after a certain age reality hits you that you are never loved unconditionally but always for something you can do. The best way is to accept this, shrink your friend's circle and reduce your dependence on people.

Static_In_The_Attic · Answer

As for me I always say you are never alone if you have imaginary friends. On the flip side if you don’t have imaginary friends you are not privileged but what you do have is yourself & if you find things to do the loneliness seems to go away.

ODC2112 · Answer

The problem for me is not loneliness but wasting time with people who are worthless.
If you've never cultivated nonsocial interests in your life, you'll have a hard time being alone. Otherwise it will be a pleasure.
