What do you do when you feel lonely? I barely have any friends left. Single motherhood is so profoundly lonely. What do you do? This is heartbreaking.

I'm sorry you're feeling this way. I have 2 friends whom I call my sisters. When I was feeling lonely I worked on myself, picked up old hobbies I did. Watercoloring, photography, going on walks and enjoying the nature. Forgot how much I enjoyed all those things.

I'm getting out more, making new friends and spending time with my daughter.

Hey hun can totally relate. You don't happen to live in South Australia do you? 🙏

I feel the same way here up in Northern New York I feel like ever since Covid people forgot how to socialize anymore

I’m struggling with this too 😞 I’m in a group chat with amazing women that I met through this app, however, I’m still physically lonely.
Following for advice…

Find out which kind of loneliness you're dealing with and replace it with a life lesson or goals. Gaining such robust full confidence into something or of yourself will surely make you well prepared and less vulnerable, than you are now.
Advocate yourself.

Truly, I think a lot more people feel lonley than they would like to admit. They distract themselves with hanging out with people they no longer feel aligned with, etc. I have personally never felt more lonlier in my adult relationships- I could be in a room full of 100s of people. In particular, I did feel lonley in my entreprenurial journey but I found really good mentors. I know God is putting me on the right path. I truly love spending time alone now, I like to read, work on my self-development, take courses, be with the kids, etc. wishing you strength! ❤️
