WELL THE PEOPLE YOU SURROUND YOURSELF WITH ARENT REALLY YOUR FRIENDS BECAUSE A FRIEND WOULDNT USE YOU FOR PERSONAL GAIN. IF YOU DONT HAVE EMOTIONAL BONDS WITH THEM YOU CAN FEEL ALONE IN ROOM WITH A THOUSAND PEOPLE IN IT. JOIN CLUBS THAT HAVE TO DO WITH YOUR INTERESTS AND TRY TO START CONVERSATION WITH POEPLE WHO HAVE SIMILAR INTERESTS. AND I WOULD DITCH THOSE LOSER FRIENDS TO START

I am sorry you hear that you are lonely.  There are churches that help out lonely people. Find a good church and make friends. Or better yet, go to the home for the aged or old age community.  There are many old people who go there to find company. Good Luck my man!

Open the door and walk outside. It's as simple as that. There's an odd mix of people all around you and everywhere you go. It seems like you got locked into a comfort zone, regarding your social group. Interact with people you normally wouldn't at the places you normally go (i.e. school, shopping, work, gym, club, and yes- even at the bar). Good luck.

Awww so sweet. \n\nRide it out cowboy! Talking to people would help too.\n\nYour not alone.\n\nI feel alone, because I am sad, not because I don't have someone.

I just have to get out of the house when I feel lonely, once you're out you can meet new people and most of the time I end up having a conversation with someone I don't know, even if I'll probably never speak to them again. I go out to a pub or cafe and sit at the bar or a table just watching the world go by. Sometimes I take a book and it's suprising how many people will come over and ask what I'm reading or say that they've already that and it's good.  I also like to take my rollerblades to the park or the seafront if it's nice out, although wish I could skate better. Or I go to the cinema, even if I'm on my own I love watching a great film and for a while you're not really on your own cos there are loads of people around and no one is talking so you're not the odd one out. If you're out enjoy yourself, and just do things that make you laugh or that you used to do as a kid, even when you're on your own cos people will see you laughing and chat. (Just not to look like a psycho, laughing at your own jokes! :)) If all else fails when I'm lonely I call my mum, she lives 12000 miles from me and it's great talking to her.

No more tears, no more sad faces... Just smile, and more gilrs will notice you more... Keep your head up... As I like to say... "Sometimes in order to go forward, you must go backwards."

I don't feel alone!!!  :D\n\nBut yes, we are always linked/connected to someone or SOMETHING, and people feel alone. There you can see that you can have everything in life, but if you don't have someone to share it with, you become miserable.

I feel like that sometimes... Like you don't have any "real" friends and have to talk online.  Just think of your aquaintences... the people you see every day but don't think much of.  Co-workers, the people at the grocery store... anyone.  They are all potential friends, you just have to ask them.  Ask someone to grab coffee with you, or go shopping with you.  Ask them over for a neighborhood gathering.  You'll be amazed at how many people really care.

How lonely are you? I'm very lonely and feel like I have no life. I'm always home, have no close friends, do nothing to really talk about and sit at the computer hr. after hr. How lonely is lonely...does it compare to your lonely........:(

My suggestion to you is tht take part in activities,being lonely & just thinking abt it will not help u in anyway so make frnds or if u have c tht u meet them daily for somtime go for gym or look out for job or activity tht keeps u busy all the day.Try to b active go for morning walks or play interesting game or u have sister sit down with her & discuss this she also may b in a state to help u to deal with it. U r not deep in relation with people tht is not a justified reason for u to b depress . try to understand tht there is time & situation for every thing to happen u will get things but b bold to face everything

Lonely is a state of feeling unaccepted. You can be lonely on a crowded bus. If you find self acceptance, you can be alone and not feel lonely at all. \n\nGet to know yourself. Talk to your mate and find out what they're thinking about your relationship. Maybe they're sitting over there wondering how they can be closer to you. Maybe they're just lost and confused.\n\nFigure out who you are and what you want. Take steps to interact with people on a deep level. Smile and say hello to everyone you see. Find activities you enjoy and go do them. Choose to say goodbye to lonely.

I think you need to learn how to be with yourself for a while. I understand how lonely it can feel, but if you can't learn to deal with yourself, how you can expect you deal with others.\n\nLove yourself, then you can know what it means to love others.\n\nYou can't always expect to have someone else always be there for you. Your always going to end up alone anyway, so its better to get used to it.

If you surround yourself with people who make you feel bad... chances are that some part of yourself thinks that this is acceptable. \n\nWork on doing things for yourself that make you feel good, and try to make some more friends that like the things you do, and who help make you feel good. Notice the difference between the old friends, and the new friends.  \n\nWhen you value yourself and the things that you are doing, when you have a good opinion of yourself, you start to have a very low tolerance for people who treat you like crap! \n\nThere are plenty of people out there who are looking for fun, good friends, get out there and find them. You are a fun and good person who has a lot to offer, if someone is trying to make you feel bad, don't let them, they don't deserve your friendship!

Most often people feel lonely because they haven't learned to love themselves very much. Often it's because they spend so much time trying to please others or to be all things to all people that they don't take the time to learn what THEY need themselves. It's hard, but you need to learn to be happy with yourself, about yourself, and by yourself. If you can do this, then you will not find yourself lonely, or needy. In turn, others won't be turned off by you because you seem lonely, and sad, and needy. You will suddenly appear more interesting and desirable to someone else. It may sound contradictory, but I think you will find many people will agree with me.

It sounds like you need some kind of activity or even a change of lifestyle to fill the void.Have you considered\nvolunteer work of some kind? You meet new people and get the feeling of satisfaction from helping others.You don't\nfeel empty when you're being stimulated like that.
