Look for friends! Sometimes friends will come up to you and talk to you, but sometimes you have to be the person to start the conversation.

What you can do if you're lonely and have no friends is join a club or find a hobby. Sometimes hobbies or activities like a sport or Art club will introduce people that better fit your personality and that will likely become your friend in the long run.

The number of friends in life is not defiant on your happiness. True happiness is gained from within. It's normal to feel lonely but just know you are never really alone. We all feel neglected at times which is why 7 cups of tea is great if you just need someone to talk to. The best thing you can do though is utilize your self time and start to view what once was a negative as a positive. Time to endeavour into new found activities, interest, hobbies, etc. And along the way you will meet new people, people who to are intrigued by similar things. These people could potentially become friends, or a listening ear. Just taking the first step to reach out and care for your self is the most important thing.

Spend more time with your family(family movie night, spa day, go bowling) and doing what you love.

Do things that you enjoy, for instance, your hobbies. Many hobbies are social, encouraging you to make many new friends. When you feel lonely, try doing something you love, it will definitely make you feel happier.

Start going out more. Hang out in crowded places; art cafes, where all kinds of awesome people gather -- it's fantastic how different we all are but still fit so well.

Personally I'm a writer/ artist. So I usually draw or write for the novel I'm working on. But when you don't have any friends are isn't an excuse to be sad. It just means you have the chance to meet new people!

I look for an old favorite book and reread it! I find solace in my favorite literary friends when the actual ones are not available!

Make friends! Saying"Hi" is the best way to meet people and make friends a small word can do so much.

Perhaps some self-evaluation would be a good starting point. Ask yourself why you feel lonely and what steps you would like to take to meet people and socialize! Sometimes, all it takes is stepping slightly out of your comfort zone and meeting people with whom you may have common interests.

find a place in your town that has a place where people can just sit, have a coffee, read. Spend time their routinely for some contact with others even if your not conversing with them.

Befriend yourself! 💜 Be productive and take up a new hobby. Dance, sing, write, excercise, etc... all great, fun things to do.

You can become very isolated when you haven't got a lot of friends around you. Have you tried making friends online? There are meetup groups on social media that you can join. Theres also forums where you can talk to people. Also remember you are not alone. There are listeners online that are here for listen to you and support you. There are leisure groups that may be in your area that you can join its worth looking online. If you need to talk feel free to message me anytime and im happy to help and will get t back to you as soon as i can.
