Nice,
I'm so sorry to hear that you're feeling lonely, I hope you can find some comfort here on the forums.
Have you had a look online to see if there are any clubs or groups you can join near you? Book clubs, sporting clubs, hobby clubs, anything like that can be good places to meet people who will enrich your social life. Otherwise, are you in a position to move somewhere where you can have roommates? Or have roommates move in with you? If it's a feasible option for you, that can be a good way to get some constant company.
Otherwise - and I know this might sound counterintuitive - immersing yourself in solo hobbies or interests can be a good way of beating loneliness. It can be comforting to spend time with yourself if you're doing something that you enjoy. I know it sounds like it might make you feel more lonely, but as somebody who is a big people-person and often gets lonely, this is one way that I find tends to combat those feelings.
In the meantime, we're here to offer you some words of support and comfort, and you can chat with us anytime.
Take care, SB
