How To Fight Loneliness

There is nothing worst then being lonely

There is nothing worst then being lonely. You have this horrible sense of isolation and abandonment. Humans crave interaction and need someone to talk to and be with. That is why we develop and form friendships. If you are lonely you need to go out and find some friends.

Some people have this innate ability to make friends. They just pass a stranger say something and straight away they are already friends. These aren't the type of people who get lonely. Often the type of people who get lonely are shy and introverted which means even if they've made a conscious decision to be more extroverted, outgoing and to make new friends that they aren't going to be that successful. It is a Catch-22 of sorts.

If a person wants to make new friends, often the best way to go about that is to find a hobby. People with common interests often form friendships based on these common interests. It can be anything that you like to play scrabble, discuss the Civil War, do gardening or go fishing. The hobby is a great vehicle for breaking down barriers between people.

It is also easier to talk about something that you like doing than talking about one's self. The hardest part about this is going somewhere where you don't know a single person. This can be very intimidating. But people recognize this and make an effort to be warm and welcoming to new people. If you make the effort you will find that you are rewarded.

Playing cards is a great way to meet new people and make new friends because of the diversity of people who play card games, especially a game such as poker. If you go out to play poker you will see people from all walks of life. Now while some of them may not be the kind of people that you want to make friends with, some will be. After you finish playing suggest going out for a coffee and something to eat.

The same thing applies to online poker. Even though you don't have the ability to see the people you are playing against you can still grasp a feeling of who they are and if you like them. Start chatting with them and then you are on your way. After chatting you can exchange email details and start writing to each other. From there a friendship can form. A friendship which is some previous instances has even resulted in marriage.

Playing sport is another way that you can make friends, especially if you play a team sport. There are trainings, the games and you can also bond when travelling to and from the games. As long as you make the effort and don't impersonate a mute you will be fine. Most of the fears that people have about making new friends are of their own doing. Once you get over that hump, you realize that there is nothing to it.
