How do I become okay with being alone?

My boyfriend and I broke up a week ago, my friends all have their own lives with uni, other friends etc, and my sister moved cities, got a boyfriend and has a new job. It feels like I have no one now.

I don't have anyone to talk to, anyone to hang out with, anyone to have a laugh with. I'm alone. My ex was a constant, he was always there, always willing to see me...but now although we still talk here and there, I never see him anymore.

My friends barely message me now, rarely even check in to see how I am, it's like they've forgotten about me.

My sister used to be my best friend. Now she's gone. She never texts me anymore.

I don't know what to do. I need something. Someone. Someone to love me, someone to care...

It's not easy to cope up with that feeling of loneliness and incompleteness. But for now you can try to focus on the other aspects of life. This will also engage your mind and help you being productive. Learn the art of concentration and meditation. Yoga helps bring change in yourself that you require.

Best Wishes. :)

Life has ups and downs. We need to "keep on" keeping on. This is just a phase, a bump in the road. Hang in there!

Don’t focus on being alone. Go out and enjoy life. People will come into your life.

I mean not to downplay your grief but it's been a week. Maybe it's a good time to get in touch with yourself and learn to be okay alone. Once you do that you can let others in but you don't want to make another person your source of happiness. It's not fair to them and ultimateltly you'll be disappointed.

How about tryin a hobby and putting all your energy into it. The go to online (because is corona and suff) communities. The new hobby is gonna keep you busy, you'll meet new people and make friends😄

I've been alone most of my life, it's not too bad if you can keep yourself occupied with hobbies and interests.
You will find more friends in time but try to contact old friends if you can.

Do your best to stay involved in life, at work or school, get involved in things you’re interested in..feel like a part of the world. Time will pass, you’ll meet new people.
