Honestly, this is a hard one, because there’s not a lot you can do.
When I am feeling lonely or just bummed out, I put on a favorite movie or show and have a glass of wine. Finding a good book is also helpful.
I usually also have a good cry, and then go to sleep.
Hang out on Fluther. :)
We’ll be your friends.
But really depending on how old you are there is a lot you can do.
If you tell me your age and gender I’d be happy to list off some activities. :)
The worst is when you feel alone in a crowd of people. There is no cure for that. When I feel alone (as opposed to wanting to be alone) I try to call someone up on the phone. We all need one good friend that will be there for us, and hopefully you can find that special person.
Other than that, I don’t really know.
Thank you for your help. I work with hundreds of people, but I come home to a semi-psychotic cat, and it’s hard to make the transition.
Get on fluther and start talking.
Have some ice cream it always seems to help.
Find something productive to do. Take up a hobby.
Stay connected with people you like by being the one to reach out and make the connection. Have a regular dinner out night with a friend, or visit your parents if they’re nearby on a regular basis. Take a class after work to meet new people. Become a regular at a coffee shop.
I second Asmonet. If I’m around, I’ll chat you up about anything. Try me!
Start a thread about a Fluther meetup
Go to a bar where everybody knows your name.
If this loneliness is an ongoing situation, as opposed to once and awhile you feel a little lonely, I would suggest getting involved in something outside of work. What matters to you? What do you care about? Then volunteer with a cause/organization that is involved in something that matters to you. You will have a common bond with the people you meet and will be more comfortable developing friendships without any of the issues that sometimes come up with work place friends. However, if you just want someone to chat with I have to agree with the Fluther suggestions. Fluther folks are fantastic! say that three times fast
