How do you deal with loneliness?

Have you felt that the conversations with your work buddies and away from office buddies are not that fulfilling? Like you might be passionate about so many stuffs but you just don’t have that passion in anyone around you and you end up being yourself, overtime becoming very lonely while still consuming content at high pace.

Do you feel lonely? If yes how are you dealing it?

By learning to enjoy solitude and finding joy in your own interests and hobbies, instead of thinking of it as loneliness and craving the company of others.

I'm not sure about collaboration among humans, but being able to enjoy the peace of solitude certainly increases our own individual happiness.

Being alone is a state, but to enjoy that state as peaceful solitude, or resenting it as loneliness, is our own mental perspective.

Most of the communities are filled with people who just for namesake say I am passionate about this, but doesn’t carry a good conversation further. And it’s like 1st class to 12th class difference. And your 12th class differences are being neglected time and again.

You should be able to spot such folks and ignore. There isn’t any ready made solution for this. Look for communities who are well established and charges you or have some kind of entry or commitment fee.

Talking with family and good friends - having great conversations on topics that you like is missing here. But works for 50% of the topics and not the other 50% which I am equally passionate about.

Both ways. Major problem is I am not having a good coffee shop around just like how Newton had to go discuss “philosophy” or “growing startups” or “science “

I always feel that something is missing in life, I don't know what and why I feel so.

I tried to get in a relationship, but whenever I express this...
