Keep yourself busy caring and loving those that are near to you. Embrace life, think of all the good things in your life. Fill the void with the things you love to do and never found or took the time to do for yourself. Walking down new avenues can often lead to new encounters.

Open up to your closest friend and hang with him/her for a while with his/her group of friends. \n\nMeet new people in the process, and be a little more outgoing. With friends as the joy of your life, you won't feel lonely.\n\nAlso read motivational stories and tell yourself you don't have the worst of situations- people out there have it worse than you. Good things happen to people who make them happen. \n\nDon't waste your life away. \nPick yourself up, get yourself together. \n\nHave fun. (:

Absense makes the heart grow fonder but it can also feel very lonely. I would try writing back and forth if possible. And find a hobby to occupy your time.

Create new brighter memories with someone else or you alone.\nDo something that is the real "end", final step, the last door or makes you feel that way - send back their stuff or a present they gave you, say the last goodbye, bon voyage.\nStart smth new (a new sport, travel,attend a painting class)\nTalk about it.\n...and as the people before me answered, give it some time. \nI think it was Oscar Wild who said that when you love yourself, you are happily in love for your whole life...

Everyone i guess, always gets the feeling of being lonesome. It usually happens when you tend to act on your own and it seem that you don't wanna trust outside. You lock yourself in your own world. TRY TO OPEN UP TO LIFE; TO THE WORLD itself.Celebrate life at the moment, by seeing the presence of others. Once you do this , you will find people around you who accept you, recognizes you and loves you just the way you are.

Well obviously the first step is you need to learn to low and accept yourself.Work with a good counselor or therapist who can help you deal with any underlying issues.If you use food to fill a void,you need to find out what is causing that void in your life.Food can never fill you up,its not your friend.You need to change your thinking completely,food is to nourish your body,give it the nutrients it needs to survive,it is not meant for recreational purposes or as a drug of choice,to fill your emptiness.There are many wonderful self-help books on this subject,look up emotional eating on amazon.com,or go to your library and check them out.You also need to engage in a prayer life,and get to Know the Lord,even if you dont love yourself,Jesus does! Good luck to you :)

Loneliness is an emotional state in which a person experiences a powerful feeling of emptiness and isolation. Loneliness is more than just the feeling of wanting company or wanting to do something with another person. Loneliness is a feeling of being cut off, disconnected, and/or alienated from other people, so that it feels difficult or even impossible to have any form of meaningful human contact. Lonely people often feel empty or hollow inside. Feelings of separation or isolation from the world are common amongst those that are lonely....\n\n& YES yahoo answers is only for lonely

The lost of a space being filled in your heart. It is a deep empty hole in your heart that can only be filled by love (Not sex). The need to be wanted and the need to touch another human being in a matter that needs no explaining. With love that is lost helps us grow into a more complete person and it does get us ready to meet, be and love that special someone that we all need and will someday meet. The worst thing about this pain is there is no pills or medicine that you can take to ease it. The only thing that will help is time. Take Faith knowing that you will meet that special someone one day and this is growing pains.

Being alone and being lonely are two totally different things. If you are alone and get bored, try a hobby or call a friend. If you are lonely, that is a different matter. Still you might try getting out and doing something and maybe meeting some new friends to have dinner with, see a movie, etc.

Lonely is a state of feeling unaccepted. You can be lonely on a crowded bus. If you find self acceptance, you can be alone and not feel lonely at all. \n\nGet to know yourself. Talk to your mate and find out what they're thinking about your relationship. Maybe they're sitting over there wondering how they can be closer to you. Maybe they're just lost and confused.\n\nFigure out who you are and what you want. Take steps to interact with people on a deep level. Smile and say hello to everyone you see. Find activities you enjoy and go do them. Choose to say goodbye to lonely.

Yes of course, but not if you have one of those stereotypical relationships where he/she is a bunch of boring words. He/she would have to feel like your friend, your favorite confidante. The person who is all loving and in whose presence you no longer suddenly feel lonely and where you are safe and at peace.  Than should be 'done' those things that you share, with your lover, communing.  If you do not 'feel' like this than maybe you need to delve deeper into the Source of your belief or look to a place where you can find it better.

Sometimes it's good to feel lonely. Sometimes it's your heart's way of seeing you need some interaction with people.\n\nTake the rest of the day off and go walking where there are people. Call a friend or family member. Talk for an hour. Call up someone and offer to make dinner or take them out for lunch. Give of yourself and you'll find that the loneliness goes away as your gift is reciprocated.\n\nOh, hugs are nice, too. **HUG**

no one can answer this question but you. what do you feel you are missing? companionship? love? whatever it is, you have to be the one to find it and fill it. it will have to start from within yourself and fill from the inside out. sometimes a good friend will will the gap until you find what you need. it also could be because you dont feel as though your life is fulfilling enough and you need to make more if it then what you are doing now. i would not recommend drugs and alcohol. those are a temp fix and will only leave the empty spot bigger with time. if you need help, i know what you are going through and can give you all the advice i can. feel free to contact me.

Well, finding a person to make you feel whole is not the answer. Hang out with family and friends more. Also, get into a new activity that you've been wanting to try. Volunteer doing something that means a lot to you. That's how you start to feel whole.

By working hard and keeping yourself so busy that you don't have time or room to feel the loneliness.  I'm married to a Marine.  He is currently gone for his third six- to eight-month deployment in three years.  By the time he comes home half our marriage will have been spent apart.  I guess you can say I live without the one I love.  Keep yourself surrounded by other people you know care about you, like your family, and you will realize that even without "the one you love", you are still loved.
