Personally I have my puppy, one friend in another state whom I text, I see my dad & brother about once a week, and live with my mom. And that's pretty much it. Before this I lived in the forest alone.
My puppy is my best friend. He follows me everywhere. (:
I'm not sure quite what to say in terms of advice. I do get lonely but I also love being alone and on the outskirts of the world looking in. I'm learning to accept this about myself.
Best of luck to you. <3
