Anything but listen to sad music. It's tempting, but it just reinforces the feeling. Physical activity works. So does cleaning, oddly, and cooking. Or just get in touch with someone and ask if they want to hang out - conversation is the cure for every sorrow. Even contention is better than loneliness.

I agree with kandaphati. When I feel lonely, I just blank out and feel it. Sometimes it's good to just let it break you down. From there, you can only come back up.
However that won't work for some people. Heck for some people it's REALLY bad advice.
My advice to you would be to force yourself to get out of the house. You won't find anyone to keep you company indoors. Go out, meet people. Even staying with family is better than sitting at home all day. If you don't have a job, get one, it helps pass the days. And as a bonus, you might meet someone at work.
Assuming you already have somone and still feel lonely, I'd recommend sitting down with your partner and just curling up with them on the couch. A man will never turn down a woman who appears to "need" him.

Why be lonely. Don't you like yourself. There are many things for people to do to keep busy if that is what it takes to get over the lonely feelings. A better way is to get to know yourself very well and learn to get along with yourself. I know that seems rather strange but the fact is that most people do not know who they really are and don't want to admit they have faults. There is no need to ever be lonely.

First, figure out why you are lonely. Do you have friends so that you may not be lonely by getting together, doing something you like?
How about doing some charity work?
Pick up the phone to talk to mom or grandma or someone close that you have not spoken to a long time?
Go the garden? Clean up the closet you wanted to do long time ago? etc.

I am “alone” most of the time. Honestly, I don't want to be with someone all the time! I like being “alone”! I am a full human, with a full life. I love coming on yahoo answers, I love reading the news, and I love waking up and not worrying about a partner! I have been “alone” since 1991, and really it would take a very special person to cause me to not be alone!
Life is so much more than having a “lover”. Be happy, and you know what? All of a sudden people will be in your life! Then you have to tell them why you are happy being alone!

Get a pet like a dog to keep you company.Call some friends and hang out with them, get out more. Meet new people don't be shy. Learn to start and continue a good conversation.And don't ignore that special person that catches your eye every time you see them.

I go out with my wonderful friends and try and find some good times :) gotta keep your mind off the fact you feel like the only one without someone. Just remember you're not and you'll find someone one day!

I knit, crochet, read, or spin wool. I make alot of clothing items for the needy.........
It keeps me outta trouble, and productive at the same time.
Plus, it gives me time to reflect on alot of things....like, "things could be worse",....and "this sweater will keep a child warm this winter", etc.

Go to the stables and potter around with my horse and then take her out for a quiet hack taking in the countryside and taking time to reflect.
