How do you loners deal with being alone? I'm not looking for sympathy and will will spare you any backstory, but I am looking for ways to combat boredom and loneliness. I don't really have any friends, and my best friend lives 9 hrs away now. I smoke a lot of weed and take part in other general internet faggotry, however, I'm looking for more irl hobbies. I don't mind being around people either, I simply have learned to enjoy my solitude in my 20s. I'm about to turn 28 at the beginning of 2020 and am trying to avoid any unhealthy social habits that my cause to turn into an actual incel weirdo. What you guys do?
I work, and when i don't, i melt stuff in my backyard and reforge it back to shape.

I work full-time at a bank and go to uni full-time as well finishing my degree in broadcasting. I socialize just fine, but I don't like keeping too many friends anymore because it means making decisions with too many other people in mind. Yeah, I'm pretty selfish, but it's my choice who I let in and out of my life.
mostly not giving a shit to be honest. i'm busy enough with my job, my own friends/family and my hobbies/interests as it is. as far as I'm concerned I'm not interested in going out of my way to meet a girl if she isn't able to slot into my life as-is. last thing i need is some needy insta-thot that wants to fill my weekends with shitty hiking trips or cafes.

Have you tried not smoking weed everyday? Try being sober every once in a while if you lose touch with your sober self you lose touch with reality......fucking faggot
Honestly this. You don’t even have to stop. Just don’t do it everyday. The days you do smoke will be much more enjoyable. Remember how amazing it felt the first 20 times you smoked weed? If you take a t break you can make that feelings come back.

What if I'm happier while stoned? I understand what you're saying by establishing limits of moderation but whereas smoking bud makes makes many people paranoid in public, it actually makes me friendlier and more agreeable......fucking faggot
Are you sure you become more agreeable? Or do you only let down your guards.

I'm certainly more willing to negotiate or hear another perspective. That's one thing about weed I have always enjoyed is its inevitable ability to remove a smoker's personal bias.
Getting friends to apair is damn hard, most of the ones i have is from either work/school or hobbies. You got to join an established group or to get to know someone through someone else.

Tough question. Sometimes it is mostly just "dealing" with being alone, and other times its pleasant.
The problem I have with keeping distance e from everyone is that when I need* someone to talk to (like today) all my "friends" vanish. No one messaging me back, etc.
Boredom has never really been a huge problem for me. At least not lately. Drugs tend to do the trick for that. Sup Forums when I only have like an hr or so, like now.
This can work, but it can backfire easily. I'm getting dragged to a work dinner rn in fact. It's worse if you hate most of your coworkers.
There's shades of gray here. I quite enjoy my solitude most of the time.
Not OP but I went through that phase, and weed can really take the edge off. It's definitely good to take breaks though

You don't get used to being alone, you just are alone. That leads into the depression, etc; That never goes away, it just gets smaller. Everything gets smaller, time just passes.
You're alone user. All the best being alone.

Join a gym. Sign up to dating sites, and place personal ads on Craigslist and kijiji. Volunteer your time, and get involved in your community. Talk to your neighbours.

First, stop smoking weed, then try exercising like running, cycling, walking, etc. Join a gym. You can do light exercise or join a spin class in the winter. Local YMCA is also a good choice. All of these things will get you out of the house and meeting people. Trying some of these suggestions will definitely help your boredom.
