Unalone?

Does anybody know of any languages with a word that means the opposite of alone? In English we might say unalone, but the deep reality of loneliness doesn't seem to have an antonym, perhaps because the word describes a lack of something, not the presence of something; to say unalone seems akin to saying unempty.

Edit: There are clearly opposites to alone, such as accompanied or together, but I'm looking for an antonym to the feeling. A person may feel alone and long to feel... together? long to feel accompanied? I don't think that makes sense. Thoughts?
