Yes I'm a member of groups. I saw people this morning. But my hobbies aren't on this evening nor tomorrow so I'll be alone.

Many people feel as you do. Can you not join some groups and make friends with others who share your interests? This might lead to additional meet ups.

Are there any GN meetups near you? If not why not start one yourself? I have met some really nice people and some are now good friends.

Are there any local groups you can join? Perhaps check your library, or volunteering, dog walking, litter picking, you’d meet other people and have a chat.

I am unsure what to say without appearing to be rude. The last person I spoke with was a till girl a few days ago. I retired in 2002 and although I do meet different friends for coffee or a meal, not a lot else happens here. How are you going to cope when you retire?

Gosh I'm lonely. I have hobbies where I see people, but I'm alone tonight and all day tomorrow.

Yes I'll keep busy, get out of house etc
But I feel lonely and I'm existing. I know I'll get through, work is very busy so I need to rest too but I'm lonely.

I feel a bit better writing that but I also feel shame and would never say in real life.
