The Universe is just far too vast for us to be alone, but realistically speaking, the odds of finding life out there, is pretty remote for a number or reasons. For starters, we aren't even close to being able to visit the closest hospitable planet. The closest is 4.22 light years away, which is some 25 trillion miles. The next closest is 23.6 light years away, which is some 141 trillion miles. We aren't reaching them with our technology, so anyone who isn't vastly ahead of us, isn't reaching us either. And if a civilization is that far ahead of us, odds are what ever interest they have in our planets, being resources or study, has been satiated long before we could reasonably observe them back.
