Hi there, When I feel lonely, I will get bored. When I get bored, I will feel sleepy. When I feel sleepy, I will fall in sleep. That's what I am gonna do. Happy responding, and commenting.

I think most people do feel lonely and bored in some time in their life.

I am not the one to answer this question because I am the most loneliest person in my neighborhood. But I will make a suggestion, go for a walk, or take a drive and visit some friends, go to the mall and walk around. You might meet someone that is in need of a friend and the two of you can start a friendship. I wish luck in finding the answer. Happy MyLotting.

I am so sorry to hear that. When I am sad and lonely, I spend alot of time online with my friends at Mylot and some at Gather too. Sometimes I sleep alot when I feel that way too. I hope you get to feeling better, my friend.

I just listen to anime songs or watch anime. Sometimes, I draw, I play piano, or clean my room.

I think it is good to listen to music and lie down in bed and relax.

Most of the evenings I feel lonely( ,before night) I am in need of good companion beloved but it is not happening. what to do. It may happen in next birth. Any how I won't sit in a corner and cry. I will manage myself and will occupy my mind in another useful matters like that my life is going on happily by my master's grace... physical activities does affects mental activities . So we should not sit and cry we should active ourselves in another useful activities. After joining this myLot I will start discussions and respond to the discussions when I feel very bored. Happy to share your views. Happy myLotting.

I think it is good to take a walk and I will also try walking and most probably walking might help.

Most of the time I relax with a story book or surf the TV. By God’s blessings, I am now so busy that I rarely feel lonely. With home and office and a son to balance, my hands are full most of the time. Whatever little free time I have, I enjoy myself. I think you can surf the net or read something. Books are very good companions. If you have a roadside balcony, you can also watch the life go by on the streets below. It’s a great time pass.

You could watch some movies at home and get your mind off the loneliness. I usually watch movies, listen to songs or play computer games when I feel bored or lonely. Just try to do something instead of sitting there and being absorbed into the boredom.

Hello ajithlal. I am so sorry that you are feeling lonely and sad at this time. If I feel the same, I will sleep earlier in the evening. If it happens during the day, then I will spend my time either working or surfing on the Internet to read some news to distract my attention till I get better. Cheer up, my dear friend.

You should try to look at an Comedy movie, this will get you smiling, laughing and cheering! You can go shopping and buy the things that you like to have. You can also call up an old friend or relative to go out some where fun. And if you have an pet, you could play with them and that will make you feel not so lonely..

I often stay alone in my house. But to be frank I have never felt lonely. Just being alone will not make u feel lonely. SOmetimes u will be a part of group of 5-10 members,still wud feel lonely. Anyways,just be preoccupied,do something which u like,which interests u. Listen to smoe good mild music,read some good books. U will surely feel better. Take care!!

Do what u always do and stop thinking about it or u can express u feeling to someone you close to and someone u trust. U can always chat with your friends via internet or u can enjoy myloting that is sharing opinion and communicate with others.

Maybe you dont wanna talk about why you are feeling very lonely and sad .But it doesnt matter! When i encouter this ,I always turn to my hobbies ,such as reading history books,chatting ,playing basketball,and so on . If i was tried ,i would go to bed to have a sleep. Take it easy, it will passed,every body will encouter it !

You should keep your mind busy. Take up a part time job or anything that keep you busy all the time. This feeling of lonely and sad and breakdowns are just because of waste mind, you are using it in wrong direction or you are smoking too much. When you will exercise your mind by keeping it busy your feel lonely or demoralization or about to break down phase will never haunt you again. I think thinking much is your problem do some puzzles if you can't do a regular job or a pert time job. Try sudoku, or any other puzzle game or give a try to reasoning sums. Or you can read a fictional novel. Try 'Omerta Puzo'.

I feel lonely most of the time and for me it has become a habit. but I think it is good to spend some time for praying or listening to a music which you love and enjoy. or taking walk with your wife, making yourself busy with watching a comedy movie or just sitting with a plant and touch and talk to that plant....
