deal with loneliness?

How do you deal with loneliness?

 

[Jazzy]

Plenty of ways:

• Get a pet
• Volunteer at a place where you will meet people
• Better yet: Find a mate

Stay busy, as per what Miss Lady said.

If you sit and sulk, it will only get worse.

The internet and forums like Off Topix can help out with human interaction, but if you crave face to face, in person human interaction, do what Jazzy said.

Come to the realization that you can't depend on someone always being around there for you as they are bound to fail you at some point. Sure it's nice to have someone around but at some point you have to learn to accept being alone and finding something on your own to occupy your time and bring you joy.

I suppose it helps that I am not much for being around a lot of people for very long so being alone is something I grown accustomed to which meant learning how to find joy in one's time alone. I know not everyone is the same so I can understand why others have much more difficulty in dealing with this.
