What do you do when you feel alone?

Sometimes when I feel alone I rather listen to a very loud music. If not I'm watching a video on YouTube to make the time runs faster than doing nothing. Keeping myself busy really helps me to feel better to forget the feelings that I have because maybe tomorrow I'm going to feel better.

I actually really enjoy my alone time, and quite frankly do not get near enough of it. I like playing my guitar and making and recording music. I like writing. I do occasionally get sucked into YouTube a bit. It does not take much to entertain myself, so I have plenty of things to do.

@tech40 I know exactly what you mean. I am an introvert too. It's a wonder, BEING an introvert, that I am so successful in sales, but I am also able to put on a good act and pretend to be an extrovert where there is money to be made I guess.
I have my wife, and I always enjoy her company. But I do need time to myself FROM her as well. And I cherish that time alone as much as I enjoy my time with her.
I do know that before I got married, I did feel alone quite a lot, and that was not entirely a good thing for me. Even introverts need company sometimes.

@porwest It is one of the best with introvert, we can focus on what we're doing than going to a party with extroverts
I have my girlfriend too and she accompany me every time but there are still time that we're looking a time for ourselves. Haha!
Indeed. Even though we like to be alone, there are still sometimes that we need a break from being alone and be friendly with others

@tech40 For I don't have a job. I'm already retired from my job as a public school principal 4 years already.

I grew up in a home with a lot of siblings. Instead of feeling alone I was always trying to find a way to be alone. When I got married and started having my kids, it was the same thing. Now I live with my kids and it's the same thing. I don't ever feel alone so I don't know what I would do.

I listen to music or watch something but I don’t really get lonely ain’t do have kids with me all of the time so when I do get alone time I’m like happy to have some alone time.

Depending on how I feel. If I feel down, I listen to music that cheers me up, on the other hand I am not feeling down, I turn on the TV and check my phone.
