How do we deal with feelings of loneliness?

It’s entirely in your head. Obviously.

You aren’t lonely, you’re pining for a blue pill fantasy. That’s not loneliness. That’s deep desire for fantasy.

You crave pussy. That’s all. Make male friends. Go have hobbies. Do something.

Make great friends, bang hookers, date casually.

Or get a dog. Dogs are nicer than women, cheaper and infinitely more loyal.

Find some hobby that interests you and live for the moment. Always remember that you were born alone and will die alone. All these games are in between only.

I've been through some stuff, and I'll impart some stuff I learned that maybe you can use.

u/DangZagnut is right. Loneliness is about the perception of loss. Your expectation for some social need is not met or fulfilled so you feel lonely.

The thing is, the mind is a powerful tool, and you can relearn/or reframe your perception of the world around you. Some of it has to do with acceptance of your situation. Social interaction can come from suprising simple and passive things and can even augment your introverted side to adapt! How cool is that? It just comes with being comfortable with yourself and your situation.

Chatting with strangers in line at the movies becomes easier. Talking about your favorite coffee at your morning joint, griping to your mechanic during a maintenance visit. It's the small interactions that add up to fill your tank.

I suggest joining a meetup of your interest and become a regular.

I agree winter months can be especially tough. what helped me last winter was to get more into hiking so I got some time in nature more (helps clear the mind). video games, shows and books also are great things that take your mind in to other worlds. in the end though every man has to face that feeling of aloneness and try to make friends with it. just think of all those guys who have to deal with a nagging partner and getting dragged to boring events with in-laws!

Well for one being alone doesn't have to mean you have to be lonely. Eventually like most, you'll come into the frame of mind of enjoying your own time, money and space without anyone around to hinder your progress and happiness. Until then, contrary to much advice you may be given here, it's your own way and there's nothing wrong with pump and dumps until you realize you aren't missing out on much (just be aware of the risks).

Secondly, there has been a fair amount of research done regarding "seasonal depression" especially when it comes to winter months/holiday season. From the gloomy whether to being used to having family, friends, girlfriends etc... around during the holidays that may not be around any longer. There is a significant amount of people who just get a little down during those times of the year that may not have much to do with actual loneliness but rather an almost Pavlovian conditioning to expect a certain environment during these specific times that may just be different (thus uncomfortable) in your new lifestyle.

I find strippers to be helpful. No bs. I know what they want and they know what I’m offering. $50 handies are dirty to some people but it works for me

Desperately clinging to religion and sleeping as much as humanly possible
