If simply speaking, you are running out of work! Yeah, it might sound awkward, but that's the truth behind this question. There is an old saying that "an empty mind is the house of devil". What does the devil really means? Does it mean ghosts? NO. It means negativities. But yeah! Negativities can also be termed as ghosts, mostly because they both are scary and they both will put you down.
You must have noticed that whenever you are having exams, or you are with your family, or you are any trip. You don't feel lonely there. Do you? I don't feel lonely ever in any family function too, because I have a lot of things to do. Even during my exams, I have a lot of things to study and I prefer being alone so that I can focus on my studies. But I never feel alone because I have a lot of things to do. Even the renowned scientists, namely Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, Stephen Hawking, etc. they used to stay alone most of their times. Not because they were introverts, but because they had a lot of things to do with themselves. Hence if you are feeling alone most of the time, you seriously need to do some work and keep yourself busy in something.

I think, for me at least, it meant that I hand't talked to many people and held on to some relationships that weren't good for my mental health. After I broke away from them, it became much easier. It's probably the fact that your relationships may have grown stagnant or the people are inadvertently hurting you. The best way would be to have some sort of change and meet people or even talk out your loneliness. It helps when you talk about it with the people you know truly care about you. This is from my experience, however there may be more ways. These are just some of the most effective ones I have found.

Often, it means you are unhappy with something in your life. Could be your ability to connect with people, could be your social insecurities, could be an absence of a person or activity. Usually there is some sort of absence there. But it does NOT mean you actually are alone. It does NOT mean there is nobody who cares about you. It does NOT mean there is no hope for love or friendship. It simply means maybe it is a little harder for you to look for it. But feeling lonely all the time is not a feeling that will last forever if we try to supplement it. Like any good-willed and rewarding pursuit, it takes time and work... but is completely possible to overcome.

There are different reasons behind why one would feel lonely for a long time. Part of it could be circumstantial and these circumstances could last for long depending on one’s current events in life. The worst reason behind one feeling lonely for a long time, would be personal; for example the inability to communicate or relate to the society surrounding him/her.
While circumstances are usually temporary no matter how long it lasts, personal inability to successfully communicate, understand, accept or be accepted from surrounding people could last indefinitely unless one manages to successfully breakthrough. A good example to that, would be depression which would get someone isolated or misunderstood.

Us humans are a very social bunch, we need that socializing element to have a healthy and a balanced life. Being focused on work/studies, making no efforts to make new friends or to socialise with current friends and family would eventually lead to a very uncomfortable spiral of loneliness.
When one feels lonely all the time, it could be a result of many things. Perhaps they do not possess a healthy social relationship with others, or perhaps they do not move with anyone in a social manner. Prolonged time of not interacting in leisurely manner with friends and family eventually leads to that phase.
Atleast that's from my experience.

Feeling lonely can mean different things for different people. When you feel lonely all the time, it can mean you constantly feel like there is no one or no one is willing to be there for you to help you get through the tough times. It can also mean no one can understand your feelings or what you're going through. Even if you are surrounded by family, classmates, and peers, you can feel alone. The opposite is true; if you've lost a loved one or someone important to you in your life, you can feel lonely because that person who had kept you company when they were alive is no longer there to support you.

I'm pretty new here so I'll try.
It should mean that maybe you feel like you're a million worlds apart from everyone. Like maybe you can disappear and no one would even notice, perhaps be invinsible forever. Like maybe you're just on the background and never a part of something out there. But trust me, you ARE a part of something, people will notice and care about you and people will care and would'nt want you to disappear, all it takes is showing yourself to the world and being true self, because that is what they will be remembering you for.

From personal experience... it means that all the people in the world cannot make me feel worthy. It feels of discontentment within myself and a deep sorrow for a piece of you will always feel left out. You could have the happiest face plastered as a mask yet you know inside you’re depressed and alone. It makes the nights feel long and the days feel like a heavy burden. It means that a part of your life needs change so you can become better and happier. This type of help cannot be found through others but is within yourself. While they can be a good support only you can pull yourself out.

We need more active in out life. Feel lonely all the time must be removed. That mean we need to add more activities, like social activities, communicate with other people, in online on some app or maybe offline with someone you know. Cause we all need other people for not feel lonely. If we have interaction with others, there will be nice both of you. Starting from greeting someone is good, and ask how their feeling. This also helps fill our time, and we also can learn more about our self and others too. Have a nice day :)

If you feel lonely all the time, you are most likely isolating yourself and your emotions from the people around you. You are probably not around around your friends or family as much as you would like to be. You may have people around you in your life, but the loneliness is still present. You may be isolating yourself from others for many reasons. Ask yourself the question- do I want to stop feeling lonely? And if so what necessary steps do I need to take to tackle this feeling? There is always hope for loneliness, even if it is hard, so don't give up!
