How to feel less lonely as you get older

It's an irony that as I'm young, too many people are competing for my time - family, friends, relationship, and it's overwhelming.

But there'll come a point when I'm older I'll have to deal with loneliness and I'll miss these times.

I'm a very easy going person. I find friends everywhere I go. I have also a strong personality and I try to talk about interesting topics. People seem to like listening to me. HN loads me with intell nontheless. Wine is one of the secrets :) I wasn't like this before, but age taught me that others need me as much as I need them. We're human, cheers

Marry someone you enjoy doing activities with and generally like and respect and admire.

Have lots of kids.

Treat others with kindness and be generous.

Some points in this article are indeed more applicable to an older audience such as limited mobility but there are still some tips in here applicable to a wider age group such as use of social media

This is going to sound incredibly cynical, maybe even sociopathic, but every social interaction is a performance.

The likelihood of at least getting along with people is directly proportional to similar or greater generalized knowledge of human behavior (and knowing how to handle it when you know more). Becoming friends is concerned with shared experiences and concerns.

If you can keep it going and keep seeking people you'll never be alone.
