Often makes you settle for less, makes you vulnerable and desperate. It’s a monster hidden inside your ribs, clawing its way out, thirsty for love not exuding from itself. A consumer of anything pleasant, of undivided attention. Its roots unknown by itself, a creeper of the night, a dark anomaly, a looming, insatiable void.
Like it’s a sickness, like how I do now projecting my sadness through a screen for your eyes to idly pass by, reading dryly; how did you try to get rid of it?
Have you ever been lonely?

Lonely person here, there's a lot of ways to battle loneliness that a lot of people don't think about. However, there's one main thing that you need to do to defeat loneliness: you need to be able to have fun by yourself. You need to be able to entertain yourself and have fun with yourself. Maybe you think you're super funny, watch a funny show and make yourself laugh with how funny you are. Maybe you're really creative, do some crafts and amaze yourself with your creativity. Maybe you're really caring, volunteer at an animal shelter and warm your own heart with how much you love animals. Sometimes, having fun by yourself is the most important thing.
I know it's cliché, and I know it isn't the answer most want to hear. Most think it isn't what's going to fix their loneliness. However, being able to have fun by yourself and entertain yourself sometimes puts you in the most amazing adventures. You'll find yourself doing things you've never done before, seeing things you've never seen before, and even growing as a person. Slowly and surely, that loneliness that you feel will dwindle away because it will be filled with love and joy for the things around you. Your heart wont have room for the loneliness if it is full of love for the things around you and the things you do.
That being said, if you are really looking for some good company, get out and do things to make connections. Be yourself, be outgoing, be a little weird; people like the weird and unusual. Be yourself and make connections at places where you can let out your talents and joys for the world. Book clubs, art clubs/events, sporting clubs, stores, online forums, there's all types of places to make connections.
I am sending you so many positive vibes!

personally when i was lonely af i got a pet or just tried to make online friends but when it failed i just made some stupid imaginary friends of mine but i was still lonely. So i just searched for groupchats and other stuff like that to meet people who like the same things as me, long story short it worked so never give up.
