writes: How can I deal with feeling lonely all the time? I'm taking five classes this semester, and I have to take one more class this summer before I graduate. I work two days a week. Any time left over is usually left for studying, projects, and assignments. I did join a club related to my major this semester, but the weekly meetings are mostly guest speakers with some mingling afterward. I try to linger around to meet people but I'm also shy. My schedule is not packed by any means but after doing assignments I just want to stay at home and relax. I feel tired mentally so I usually end up watching shows online. I do have friends at school and work but they're not close enough to hang out at graduation, which I'm afraid I may have to celebrate alone with my family. The only "true" friends I have are three girls from high school and we have occasional get-togethers. But we are busy with our own lives and I feel lonely. I have also been single for two years. I would love to meet someone and have a healthy relationship but I have not met anyone I'm interested in. Should I just wait it out, complete my degree, and get a job? I have confidence but I just feel lonely.

You can fill your 'lonely' days by using it as a selfcare day. You get to treat yourself. Take care of your body and mind during such days by using a skin care routine, reading a book, watching youtube, going for a walk, listening to your favourite music or movie. During this process, you get to learn more about yourself and also tend to love yourself more. Which would be a plus for you, when you start dating because you now know yourself more (You know your likes and dislikes, what makes you happy etc).And being in love with yourself first before starting a relationship, helps you love someone even more and also learn what you what in a guyAnd not quickly, settle for anything less in a guy. Beacuse you are independent and you already love yourself. Am glad you are involving yourself in different activities. Hope it helped!
