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.

There are so many online courses in varying fields that you can take, both paid and free classes. You will be so engaged with it that your days might start appearing shorter cheesy. Just get yourself a strong internet connection and look up courses of interest online.

You can as well take yourself out, I don’t know the city you are but I know there’ll be so many fun places to visit. Might be an evening out at a karaoke bar, instead of staying back at work past closing hours. You can just come home, shower, change into something else and go back out.

You can also invite friends over to your place for a fun time at weekends. Might be to watch a movie together, play games (chess, scrabble, monopoly, ludo or even video games).

All that being said, I see being single as fun and rarely get lonely. It’s mostly work, learning new things, watching movies, schooling, watching football and playing games.

When I was in your shoes I was never lonely because I'm introverted and I loved my own company, but whenever I felt anything faintly resembling boredom or loneliness, I watched movies, surfed the internet or read a book. You just have to reprogram your mind to look for activities that occupy the mind. Enjoy these quiet years now because the time is coming when you will look back with nostalgia.

It's could be boring being alone and single.

I learnt how to prepare different delicacies. So my saturdays were my practical days. I invite my friends over sometimes or share the food with my good neighbor.
On Sundays, I'm involved in alot of activities in the church that extends to mid afternoon. When i get back home I'm preparing for work.

I love movies and watch alot when there's nothing to do or just surfing the internet for gists, gossips and updates.


Women and Gossip is like Abba kyari and red cap grin cheesy

My dear God has been helping us.
The boredom got worst on me when my phone got stolen.
I virtually became a complete definition of boredom myself.

I only overcame it by strolling around my street.
I stopped by, whenever something caught my attention.
Fights, exchange of words, quarrels, football matches and the likes.
Thank God I overcame
grin understand

Loneliness is for ladies and broke niggar or introverts.
Personally I only feel lonely whenever I'm broke or I decide not to visit anybody. I don't see myself as a lonely soul, I have gym to visit, I have Bush bar to go to, I have hotels to hang out. So tell me how I will feel lonely

For a man it gets worse around that 8pm. You don't want to be inside alone, you'll want to stay out till 10 or 11pm.

Nothing compares to companionship but take your time and get the best that suits you

The bold echoes the Fact that some people are married and still lonely

Please share the book. I’m interested. Thank you.

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.
And what city is this if I may ask?

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

Well, it's always been I and my tiny lonely world.
Sometimes, when my frustrations got an unbearable level of apogee, I will quickly take an overdose of sleeping pills, with an expectation of not wakingup again.
However, I do, and I always feel a teeny little sliver of guilt.
I will keep on trying. cry

Pls bro..keep hope alive. DM me ..I want to be your friend. To all that is joined to the living,there is hope. You have a glorious destiny ahead of you!
Re: Single People How Do You Cope With Being Alone by Nobody: 8:41pm On Aug 07, 2021
Rather than suppress that feeling, why not listen to the voice of the Spirit, " it is not good that a man should be alone..." It might just be about time to make "that big decision"...

Anyway, I do evening devotion, chat with friends online and sometimes get busy with my freelancing work.

You can also be part of my online friend too, that will deal with a good percentage of that loneliness.

It's pretty cool being alone... I have been alone for 6 years now..
Though I get bored sometimes, but I'm always chatting with my crazy co-workers and friends online, watch movies, go out to watch football in viewing center instead of my house, club sometimes, read novels and invite friends home sometimes... They are hundreds of things to make you busy while bored...
I would advise you get a bf / gf.... Case close...

Y'all going into Relationship just because you bored Lol . Well, it gets worse for some when that partner isn't even available.

I used to be like this.. Infact worse cos i had depression and would sometimes cry on such days + get anxious for no reason ..
But frankly it significantly reduced after i started watching animes (black clover, naruto, one piece etc).

Plus the solution is usually not just one thing. You also need to find and have new close friends even if its just 2 in ur area.. Alot of times they might hurt u but gradually start pulling away and find another friend. U could email me as well.. So we could be chat buddies smiley

Loneliness is a terrible thing, but you can be in a relationship and still feel lonely due to lack of chemistry and compatively. Dating someone you sync easily with is one of the best things in this world.
