How do you deal with loneliness when visiting people isn't an option?

Asked by TexasDude (25274points) July 25th, 2010

It sucks being effectively nocturnal, as well as someone who thrives on the company of others. I usually stay up until about 6 am and it gets extremely lonely at those hours. Everyone’s asleep, nobody is on facebook, sleep isn’t an option, and playing Super Mario isn’t filling the void anymore. I thrive on the company and conversation of others, whether real or virtual, and this is getting old, so I have to ask my fellow social butterfly insomniac Flutherites: How do you do it? How do you alleviate your loneliness? Keep in mind that this isn’t a “you should drink warm milk and just try to sleep” discussion. Sleep isn’t happening. My circadian rhythm just doesn’t work that way.

So… how do I fix this? How do you fix it?
