You may spend plenty of time together yet miss being listened to, understood or included. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/mental-health\/feelings-symptoms-behaviours\/feelings-and-symptoms\/feeling-lonely\/\">NHS guidance on loneliness<\/a> recognises that you can feel lonely around a partner, friends or family; being physically alone is not the whole story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The useful question is what kind of connection you are missing. More dates, a relationship label or more messages will not necessarily answer it. Start with one change you can describe, rather than expecting yourself to solve everything at once.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"union\"><p>FIND PEOPLE NEAR YOU<\/p><\/div><form class=\"registerForm\" id=\"register\" method=\"GET\" action=\"https:\/\/shag.co.uk\/dashboard\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"s1\" value=\"blog_shag\" \/><div><div class=\"form-group\"><label for=\"i_am\" >I'm a<\/label><select name=\"sex_seeking\" class=\"form-control\" aria-invalid=\"false\"><option value=\"male-female\">Man looking for women<\/option><option value=\"male-male\">Man looking for men\/option><option value=\"female-male\">Woman looking for men<\/option><option value=\"female-female\">Woman looking for women<\/option><\/select><\/div><div class=\"form-group\"><label for=\"province_id\">Location<\/label><select name=\"country_id\" class=\"form-control selectCountry\" id=\"select_country_id\" style=\"display: none\"><option value=\"13\" selected=\"\">UK<\/option><\/select><select name=\"province_id\" class=\"form-control\"><option value=\"476\">East Midlands - England<\/option><option value=\"477\">East Of England<\/option><option value=\"478\" selected>London<\/option><option value=\"479\">North East England<\/option><option value=\"480\">North West England<\/option><option value=\"481\">Northern Ireland<\/option><option value=\"482\">Scotland<\/option><option value=\"483\">South East England<\/option><option value=\"484\">South West England<\/option><option value=\"485\">Wales<\/option><option value=\"486\">West Midlands - England<\/option><option value=\"487\">Yorkshire &amp; The Humber - England<\/option><\/select><\/div><div id=\"getMessage\" class=\"getMessage\"><p class=\"boton\" style=\"margin-top:20px\"><button type=\"submit\" name=\"register\" class=\"btn\">JOIN NOW<\/button><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/form>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Put words to the part that feels lonely<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about a recent moment. Were you trying to share something important while your partner kept scrolling? Were you spending another weekend waiting to hear whether a date would happen? Or do you enjoy time together but have nobody else you can turn to? Those are different situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You could finish this sentence privately: \u201cI feel most disconnected when \u2026 and I would appreciate \u2026\u201d An example might be: \u201cI feel disconnected when our evenings are only about chores, and I would appreciate a walk where we can talk.\u201d This is a way to organise a conversation, not a test of whether your relationship is good enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ask for a specific conversation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you feel safe doing so, choose a moment when neither person is rushing out. \u201cI have been feeling quite alone lately, even when we are together. Could we talk about it?\u201d is clearer than hoping they will recognise the feeling without being told.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Explain one example and what you would like to try. Ask how they have been experiencing the relationship too. The aim is to find out whether you can work on a practical change together, rather than making someone promise that you will never feel lonely again.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shag.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/stop-feeling-lonely-1.jpg\" alt=\"stop feeling lonely\" class=\"wp-image-2022\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.shag.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/stop-feeling-lonely-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn.shag.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/stop-feeling-lonely-1-240x300.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Try a change you can actually notice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A planned conversation without phones, arranging your next date before parting or sharing one activity you both enjoy can give a vague wish for closeness a practical form. Choose something that fits your lives and agree when to check how it went.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example: \u201cCould we set aside some time on Sunday to talk, then see next weekend whether that has helped?\u201d If the plan falls through, discuss why. A work emergency and repeated unwillingness to make time are different things. Do not use a timetable or scorecard to measure how much someone loves you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you are dating casually, check the arrangement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You might have agreed to occasional dates while privately hoping for everyday companionship. That mismatch deserves an honest conversation. Ask what each of you can realistically offer, and decide whether the arrangement still suits you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no need to apologise for wanting more closeness, but the other person may not want the same thing. Equally, you do not owe a committed relationship to someone who feels lonely. Our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/shag.co.uk\/blog\/casual-relationship-getting-serious\/\">changing feelings in a casual relationship<\/a> can help you prepare that discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make room for connection beyond dating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The NHS suggests manageable steps such as speaking with someone you trust, joining an interest group or volunteering. A GP may also be able to help you find local activities through social prescribing. These are options to explore, not guaranteed fixes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If an open-ended \u201cwe should catch up\u201d is difficult to act on, try a specific invitation: \u201cWould you fancy a short coffee on Saturday?\u201d If you are joining something new, find out whether you can attend once before making a commitment. Choose an activity you would be interested in even if you do not immediately make friends.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"467\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shag.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/helping-others-and-yourself.jpg\" alt=\"helping others and yourself\" class=\"wp-image-2023\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.shag.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/helping-others-and-yourself.jpg 467w, https:\/\/cdn.shag.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/helping-others-and-yourself-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 467px) 100vw, 467px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>A dating app can be one way to meet people when you want to date.

Its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/mental-health\/feelings-symptoms-behaviours\/feelings-and-symptoms\/feeling-lonely\/\">loneliness support page<\/a> also explains routes to talking therapies and urgent help. In an immediate emergency, call 999.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your partner controls who you see, threatens you or makes you afraid to speak, prioritise support rather than a relationship exercise. Read the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/live-well\/getting-help-for-domestic-violence\/\">NHS information about domestic abuse<\/a>. You do not need to handle that situation alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can take your feelings seriously without deciding today whether to stay, leave or start dating again. A useful next step may simply be telling someone what has been happening and asking them to listen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"tmnf_excerpt clearfix\"><p>Feeling lonely in a relationship can be difficult to explain.
