God I wish I had a girlfriend. /self pity.
MUSIC. it's amazing. I just listen to music when i get lonely and that helps. As does having a gf.
I lessen those moments by participating in various classes in the city (workout classes, martial arts, boating, etc.). When I'm back to being alone, I use video games and manga. I'm trying to learn to draw as well.
I looked for a cool sport I could do in the neighbourhood, even a shooting range as I really want to try that out. There aren't any. It's quite a barren place I live in, anything remotely interesting is far away enough that it would be impossible thanks to work.stinkychops said:
Sit under your desk in your dark room and blast sad music. Of course thats just me and only makes me more lonely.
I try not to dwell too much on it and focus on doing things I enjoy. It''s very rare that you'll meet someone you feel a deep connection with (unless you're 'normal'), and even rarer that they'll feel the same way. It's better to have nobody than anybody, but as long as you try to remain positive, friendly (not in a creepy way) and optimistic, then you'll probably find you have a lot more people in your life.
Oh, and keep trying new things. As well as meeting lots of people, you're always learning and that will give you a sense of achievement and self worth, which will help with confidence, which in turn will make it easier for people to like you.

In the past couple of years, I've had several groups of friends that I've disbanded from through my own choices, almost out of habit or something. People are horrific things, and simply not to be trusted. I pick up very easily how people feel around me and I can not stand being near someone who doesn't see me as an equal or greater.
So I've sort of grown to hate people. I put on a smile to co-workers and customers, etc at work, but in all honesty I just don't care for anybody. My family are exceptions, but even a couple of them I find just awful people to be near.
So in short, learn to hate, it'll keep you company. Certainly keeps me.

That just makes up my entire life at the moment.Sark said:
Thank you for making me slightly depressed...
You see....i have this bottle...filled with this really awesome liquid....and i empty that bottle, while filling it with my gripes and emotions......then i get this cork...then i put the refilled bottle in a case of 12 bottles....and hide it somewhere where it will never again see the light of day.
I've spent most of my life alone aside from my family, and I don't really know how I cope, I just accept the fact that most people aboslutely hate me for reasons I can't nail down. One thing I do is scare people, I don't know why that helps. I guess if people reject you from their dreams, it helps to force your way into their nightmares. I have tried multiple times to get more friends, and a girlfriend, but most friends I've known have ended up using my better nature to their own sick ends, and for a person so "horror film ugly" a girlfriend simply isn't possible. I learnt that the hard way.
Coming to think of it, I guess I'm alot mentally stronger than most people.
