First, loneliness is not just about being alone, but it's about being sad or depressed about being alone. Some people are comfortable being alone, and thus not "lonely" in the negative sense.
You can do many things, both physical and mental, to become less lonely. Do you not have friends because you don't know how to meet people, or because you don't know how to develop a conversation? If so, take a social skills class or read a book on the topic.
Do you have any interests that you can share with others? If not, get some, and then go to places where you can share those interests.
You can go to a counselor who should have some suggestions for how to develop friends and become more socially involved with others.
You can read books and articles about loneliness and follow some of their guidelines.
Mostly, stop worrying about it and take action--you may find the problem disappears.

get....unlonely! Just kidding. What was your hobbies as a child? Looking though old photo albums will jar your memory a little. Maybe there was something you liked doing in the past that you haven't done in a while. When you go back, you'll get that "Feeling" that you use to get when you did it in the past and thats a sure way of feeling better. You wont think about being so lonely as much.
You can also join a club, or some sort of "Society". Depending on where you live, there has to be some kind of membership that you can join. If you like restoring old things, you can join the "_______ Restoration Society"....or something like that.
Get out there and see what your missing!! Evidently you havent done enough investigation because your in here asking this question! Theres something out there for you, you just havent looked hard enough...why are you still reading this??!!! Get out there and look!!

Treat loneliness with life . Life is for living . Go out into the world ; live and breathe and observe .Volunteer . Go to the library . Go to church . Keeping busy is a good cure .

You may think that mine is a Pollyanna answer, but after living "a long long time", the only thing that works for me is getting up and doing something nice for someone else.......it works, I promise. Then there are days when I am feeling 'down' and those are the days that I say, "Lord, if I can't do anything else today, I want to get closer to You." A sincere wish to you for peace.

u speak as if loneliness is a bad thing. yes it can be bad sometimes but not always. sometimes it is good. but if u dont want to be lonely then hang with ur friends, go out, get a pet.

For me, it was becoming a christian. Because The Lord is someone who is always there for you and with you and will help you thru your loneliness.

Spend time with friends or make some, you can also try hobbies, the kinds that get you out of your chair.

Get a blow-up doll and name her. Take her out on dates and you are guaranteed some action when you get home.
