Hey there!
Thank you so much for reaching out, and welcome to the forums. I'm sorry to hear that you've been feeling lonely. It can be quite difficult to find a good balance between being surrounded by people and being completely alone.
If I'm reading your post correctly, it sounds like you might find it the most meaningful to be in just the company of one or a few close people, without necessarily being engaged in conversation. As a "love language", that's often referred to as "quality time", where existing in each other's presence during different activities or moments is enough to make you feel fulfilled and supported.
This could look quite active if you have specific things you like to do, like a sport, crafting, watching TV... or it could look a little more passive - taking a friend with you to do the grocery shopping for instance, or heading to the bank with a family member purely just to have somebody there with you. People who value quality time as a means of showing and receiving affection tend to enjoy engaging in activities with other people as opposed to by themselves.
Do you have any loved ones/close connections in your life who you can depend upon? Who in your social circle may be a good person to have with you during some of those monotonous activities, or even things that you've been meaning to try out but haven't had the chance yet? If you're feeling like you need somebody with you during certain activities, or if there's an activity you've been wanting to try with somebody, you may find that tapping into this helps ease that feeling of loneliness a little.
I hope this helps, please feel free to keep chatting with us if you'd like, we're here to support you.
Take care, SB
