I believe everthing has its own positive side, and also loneliness. In the past, I always sad and don't wanna feel it. But now I accept it and not hate it anyumore (but i'm not happy). In my loneliness I feel closer to God. I can think and reflect about myself. I made most good decision in loneliness. it helps my though process and eventhough I'm not happy everytime i feel it, it makes me to be friend of many people so if I can, I don't want other people feel deep loneliness like me.
There's a quote in my favorite anime, it says "I hate loneliness, but it loves me"
It describe my feelings about loneliness..

Thank you.
As you rightly pointed out everything has its positive side as well. So is loneliness. It immensely helps you take wise and mature decisions about life if you have a positive attitude. For people who have a severe negative attitude, loneliness is extremely dangerous, as it is serious threat to others and can even cause destruction. I have seen instances like this. I firmly believe, one can be nearer to God when you are lonely, which again is a positive trait. God bless!

Yes I would like to be lonely at times, when I'm sad, and when I feel down. I don't like the feeling of loneliness, it hard and can cause depression,so I prefer to sit in front of computer watch funny clips and laugh and it much better if I could share it with friends. Being alone makes me ponder of certain things and be thankful of the things that I have.

Yes. It is fair enough. One has to be alone when one feels a little down. But it has to be for a short period only. We tend to come out of it as quick as possible and be on our toes soon. One tends to look at the positive side of life and be lively and active.
Amazing! Is in't it?

Lonely times are at times very good and sometimes they are very bad..
Loneliness sometimes helps to review our past and allows us to right it . .. but sometimes it also can give one a very low feeling it all depends on how much silence we like. Personally i like to be alone to revive myself..

Even I feel that loneliness has to be only to the extent of recouping ourself, do some introspection about ourselves, think better, calm our nerves and start a positive action. But too much of loneliness can be frustrating and makes one very remorse and depressed.

loneliness means keeping yourself in an isolated and a separated world...you are away from others and lead your own life without anyone's interference. though i am very friendly by nature but i sometimes like being alone bcoz i rarely find time for myself.in that time i just do whatever i like to...watch movies or play games or watch tv and no one is there to interrupt..but sometimes my friends think that its not a good habit and i shud indulge more in them.

Hi,
Man being a social animal, definitely need to have people around him in order to share views and interact. However, too much of it can be disturbing and hinder his thought process. Loneliness helps us to do some introspection about ourselves and come out with practical solutions to some of the most complex problems. It immensely helps us to evolve strategies and work out solutions to be free of problems on a day to day basis. One has to learn to enjoy the loneliness and utilize it to the best. What do you say?

Yeah, i do feel lonely sometimes, when im not around anybody. I dont like to be alone. I love people and i cant stand to be alone. I love being around family, friends and partner. even so, being alone is sometimes good too, because i get to think and do what i havent got time to do. When i am alone, i think i am more open to new ideas and suggestions.

Asolutely.
When you are alone you can think more freely and openly, with a free flow of new ideas. I agree with you that one has to be active throughout and interact with your near and dear ones. Some try to steal some time for yourself for being alone and enjoy the peace and refresh yourself.

Excessive loneliness can be detrimental, but it has its benefits. When one is lonely, they tend to not be so optimistic, and be more practical, which can be a good thing. Also, loneliness puts one in a position where they can think independently of others intervening with their ideas.
