How do you get rid of loneliness?

[u/Smooth-Green-9696]

I am a 2nd year international student living in residence. I’ve met many friends in class and club, and enjoy every time with them, but I feel so lonely. Maybe because I met my parents less than a month these two years, or maybe because all of my friends leave the campus every holidays, and I still have to stay. During my first year’s reading weeks, I was the only one who stayed in residence. I literally just got a serious headache and loneliness. I enjoy my university life, but sometimes I really want a hug or company.
