What does it feel like living a life where you aren't lonely?

I wonder often, would I be happier if I had people to talk to? I try so hard to make friends and talk to people and it's all great when I'm the one starting conversations, yet if I don't text first it's like I don't even exist. I don't go out anywhere, I stay in my room and rot in my bed feeling like there's something heavy that makes me unable to move out of my bed and I hate that feeling. I spent new years alone and nobody even said anything. I talked to my friends when I was in school but now that it's break..nobody even talks to me anymore. I feel like a complete loser and I stay quiet for too long that it's became hard to speak clearly and I don't know what to do... I just want someone to talk to me and care...

What it's like...You don't think of other people much, you're content with your own company and actually having people around could annoy you. So...a different set of problems. Also, you might struggle when you need a helping hand because you don't have a bunch of friends to ask for help. Of course, if you're not one of those people who don't mind calling other people only when you need help.

Disclaimer: I am a person who gets bouts of loneliness but I really don't think in terms you do about the New Year and all that. I was alone on NYE once and so far it was one of the best NYE of my life. So peaceful and free.

If you feel like you can't get out of your bed, it sounds more like depression than loneliness though.
