I am a young lady in my mid 20s. I don’t live with my parents. I live alone because I work in another city different from where my parents live. My problem now is immediately I get back home from work, I begin to feel lonely. Because of this, I like to close late from work just to keep my mind busy. I close early only if I have other errands to run or if I am very tired.

When I get home, I speak with my parents who try their best to keep me company. But there is still lots of time left before I go to bed. In the height of my boredom, I come to nairaland. Then I go to other blogs to read the news. I read all the news blogs I normally follow. I check out my chats on WhatsApp and Telegram. Usually there isn’t anyone chatting with me because everyone is busy with their lives. I go to Youtube which I have become tired of watching. And at some time I’m just bored to my mind. I don’t like to impose myself on anybody and so I only chat with people who come to chat with me including neighbours.

Sometimes I just want someone around that I can talk to but I’m alone by myself. Single people, how do you cope with boredom. I mean single people who are really single not the ones cohabiting or visiting their partners. Some tips will be very helpful right now.





I'm a FX Trader so I don't even have enough time when I get back home, talk more of having time to be bored.

I have loads of movies, so I see them whenever I want to.
Play video games.
Watch cartoons.

These things help work my head up and keep me preoccupied.

BUT, "as body no be fire wood" the loneliness dey come small small. I still have ways of subduing it.

DM, let's enjoy our loneliness together grin

I have all these things you asked me to get but i still feels very lonely. I just want to have the feeling of someone sharing the same space with me. I told my sister to come and stay with me and get a job in my city but she said she wants to stay with my parents and work in the same city as my parents.

At some point I thought about changing accommodation and renting a shared space instead of a full space where it is just only me but on a second thought, I said no because I don’t want to have issues with anybody.

Most Saturday I go out with some of my colleagues who are also my friends and on Sunday I go to church bit immediately I get back home, it is different.
Oh sorry for that, may be you should be thinking of getting married then

I thought I was alone on this, depression nearly kill me ,
Me that can't finish one bottle hero or trophy, all of a sudden can now finish five bottles of legend without getting high ,
I resorted to taking cough syrup , I've tried Igbo Indian hemp I nearly had cardiac arrest that day that one is not for me at all,
my phone doesn't lack data I even bought power bank to support my phone ,
once I get home and take my bath I would take my syrup start from Facebook to Whatsapp to nairaland to YouTube all to no avail
up until I met one Israeli pastor on YouTube.
I've been following his teaching on youtube and been praying.
Now am getting better once I start watching him on youtube next thing is sleep

Abeg take it easy oo. It is not that serious.

I'm single and I've embraced solitude for a while now. I'm never bored, so much to do. When you're alone, you do more introspection and focus mostly on your betterment.
Notwithstanding, loneliness has its merits and demerits.

The world evolved and now we are busy doing nothing but dying a wasted life which they are call the fulfilled life.

Don’t attach knowing people to what they would get from you. Let the sun guide you through every day. Find happiness in love. You don’t have to be double to feel loved. We aren’t supposed to be lonely though it’s bliss only when the people around you don’t get to understand life the way it is suppose to be.


Love is the truth and we should be happy love exist



A few times in the evening light up some local weed or cook with meals.

If you can afford to take yourself out, being single wouldn't bother you.

To cope with being single, you have to join a physical group (either religious group, societal group, basketball or football) and make friends with alot of people

Exactly, i nearly cried when my phone's screen broke. For 3 months no phone. I am the chairman of lonley people, but ironically if u put me in the mood, u will beg me to stop talking. People tell me that i am funny too but they see it only when they have come close to put me in the mood to talk.
I like making myself happy. Like buying corn and groundnut or pork meat for myself once in a while cheesy

I'd understand your feeling mine is even worse because I don't have a job, and I hate moving around without no direction so most time I'm not home and someone just break my hearts because I'm jobless now it's painful I say!!

Sterope:
You don't get lonely when you have lots to do.
That is not exactly true. Maybe you don't have the experience explained by the Op. There is a kind of liveliness that comes with staying with people, by hearing their voices, and knowing they are with you. Even if you have a lot on your hands in form of work, it won't suitable substitute for human presence.

Condition your mind to accept that you don't like sharing your personal space....
Lived alone in a house not apartment, a house for about 2years now and I enjoy it...

The down side is whenever I'm outside I get consumed with anxiety and discomfort.

are you considering going into a relationship because you're lonely or you're emotionally ready to get into a relationship which will eventually bring you a lot of drama which might be so exhausting? perhaps you can get a hobby like something that interests you, that should reduce/get rid the boredom if you get into it. if that doesn't work out, then you sure need a chat buddy (preferrably a male) but do not to rush yourself into a relationship yet, you can just go with the flow and see where it heads.

BTW, what's your zodiac sign?

Summary is you are young with a lot of time on your hands…

Books …read books.

Otherwise , note down any problem(s) you observe during your day and spend your free time thinking about solutions or ideas around creating a business opportunity - one of the best ways to create wealth.

Other things you might feel you are missing out on presently will generally come to you on their own …no be by force by fire.

Peace.

I also stay alone but unlike you, I don't feel lonely, maybe because I'm an introvert. I get invigorated being alone. Yours is still better; you said you go to work. I don't anywhere; I work from home because I work as a Virtual Assistant. In fact, one of my neighbours in the same compound has only seen me today since Sunday, which shows I don't even step outside my room.

How have I been hoping? I will say aside from the fact that this nature suits my personality, I kill boredom by working. I always juggle from one work to the other. So there is no room for boredom. Whenever I want to take a break from my work, I do what I enjoy. Like you, I also watch Youtube & Facebook videos and others, but not on every tom, dick and harry content I see online. I love football, so my mind has been configured to look out for football highlights on those platforms, and this excites me. Sometimes, I may want to watch for few minutes, but later realize I have sent over an hour. In the same vein, I enjoy listening to music. So simultaneously as a work, I play music and this whirl away boredom. Therefore, I will advice that you spend your time on what you enjoy. It may be reading books, doing house chores and what have you.
