Honestly? It depends. You can make it better, if you try or make it worse if you don't. This sounds like they were not "lonely" that was just something they could blame it on.

Go do something. It doesn't really matter what. Exercise, join a rpg group, join a maker space, move to a new city, change jobs, join a group about off roading. It doesn't matter, learn to cook, learn to bake. Just do something.

Laying in bed or staring at a monitor/TV won't help. Most people will get into a mental loop of how they are bad because they don't have any real comparisons of real people. You may make mistakes but you will see other people make mistakes too.

Regarding relationships I love the quote from Jimmy Carr (yes he has dark humor and often is offensive) "don't think what you can get, think what you can provide".
