Hi, welcome
Loneliness is very common so often it isnt personality based as to the reason you havent got company.
Firstly I must mention that an old lady neighbour once said to me "we are always alone". That meant that we can have the most close relationship but there will always be times we feel we have nobody around. This breeds insecurity and it isnt easy to rectify but I have my theories as to how
We cant ignore traditional methods of interaction as they work most times. Joining a club, sports club, social club and so on is what most people do. Men who suffer this isolation more often now have mens clubs even if it is just for a cup of coffee and a chat. What is the secret for entering these clubs imo is to control your activities and involvement to suit your own needs. If you join and do all that is asked of you or you over assist the organisers, your club could become a liability rather than an answer.
This is more common with people with low tolerance or those with mental illness because we need a different approach than whats common. eg My sensitivity means I'd likely have conflict with someone that uses a bossy tone. That aside try to look back on your life as to the interests/hobbies you have had and choose a club.
I hope that helps, repost anytime.
