I have no one and I need one. I mean no one. No neighbors, parents, friends, nothing. What can I do?

1) try to find a training partner... a gym, dojo, studio, another martial art classs... ask around... You'll find someone hopefully
Get a punching bag or a grappling dumbing or both... or make one if you like. Shadow boxing, Kata/form training, and conditioning will help but a real live opponent (willing that is) will be helpful if not necessary.
Best of luck.
P.S. "So In Love" maybe interested in some type of training :)

There are many people like your self who might like to hook up with you if you would tell us where you live (within a 100 mile radius). I have a lot of training partners so I'm not really interested but I hope you find one

The legendary wrestling coach Dan Gable used to "shadow" wrestle all the time. I called the "the guy in the mirror" his toughest opponent. At some point you will need others to test what you've learned but you can only help yourself by perfecting your technique.

Train by yourself for awhile. That's how Rich Franklin and Matt Hughes started out.

i'm in the same boat. i practice with my "invisible" partner. I visualize my partner while i'm practising the moves i leared in class.
it helps also to stand in front of a mirror
