Many people are not like loneliness, because time passed much more long and tiring. Are you including this? Indeed, loneliness is often identified with the scary, frustrating, and even become a symbol of grief. However, if we would open minds, actually loneliness, it is not always deadly. Even the loneliness, sometimes become something fun for me. this is the meaning that I got, because I always feel alone, What is the meaning alone for you?

Being alone does not necessarily mean being lonely. I frequently appreciate being alone so that I can do what I want to do without any interruptions.

Hi. indahfth. We all experience loneliness at times. Some people can be so lonely that they become stressed. This can cause them to get really sick. When I get lonely, I try to find something that will ease my loneliness. I communicate and I love to write. It eases my mind. Loneliness is a sadness that fills the mind and body. It can be temporary or permanent, it just all depends on how a person deals with it.

Being alone is good for me.
It gives me more time to spend with me.
When i am alone,
I can talk so openly with my heart.
It is a better way to communicate with ourselves.
I m suggesting this way.
Thanks for sharing.
God bless you.

I like alone time every now and again where I can simply do nothing if I wish. Feeling loneliness for me is not a great feeling as it would make me a very negative person. So I like interacting via email, text, online and phone when I am blue to get my mind off things and to make sure I am not disconnected from the world.
So the meaning of alone for me simply means quite time and not being bothered.

I think its good to take some time for yourself everyday to be alone. So you have a chance to reflect and pay attention to your feelings and think about how your day went and what you can to make yourself better than you already are. By doing this I think it keeps the mind healthy and gives you time to not always be around people. Friends are good but sometimes having yourself is all you need.
Everyone should try it, I guarantee you won't regret it.

I agree with zandi, there is a difference between being lonely and being alone. Though I have no car to go anywhere that often, I am not lonely. I am attached to the outside online and connected to my son who is also with me when he is not at school. Plus I always know no matter where I am, G♥d is always with me..:)

Hello my neighbor friend, honestly I was worried about you. I was wondering you always feel like alone. As if you're living in an island. It would too personal for me if I would ask what's really the matter with you. Was there any reason why you acted this way? I responded same topic of yours the other month. It was all about loneliness. Being alone. Worried, feeling not happy. As if you're a woman time refuses to make you happy. Yes, I agree there are moments that we feel like being alone so we can meditate or think ourselves peacefully but not most of the time like what I thought of you. Com'on my friend, cheer up! Life is short we must not make it shorter from our worries in life.
We normal people has its own problems, worries and trials that sometimes can cause sadness and loneliness. It's normal but we have to move on...Honestly, I have also a big problem that put me on stress nowadays. But, I think it over and over. If I would go on like this, I would not be able to find right and legal solution of my problem. Think of some people who happened to have more serious problem than ours and they survive. What's the reason we can't? Well, that's a matter of patiently waiting while looking for it. Any worries and problems has its own solution. We just have to be strong and have courage to face it. We must run away with what ever causes the problem we must face squarely the problem. The more you run the more it would chase you until you feel exhausted and die. Am sure you never ever want that to happen because we have love ones which we leave untimely. Hope you got me my friend. I think we have same fate in life.
Sorry for this very long respond...Cheer up! There's a saying that I want you to remember always..post this in your mirror.."SMILES AND THE WORLD WILL SMILES BACK AT YOU, CRY AND YOU CRY ALONE"///...

Loneliness is not always bad. It might spur you into finding something to live for. I love to be alone sometimes, all by myself. In those moments I try to discover myself, and talk to myself. We mostly talk to everyone else in this world but seldom to ourselves.

Hi
Well there is being lonely,when there are no friends or family around you and you wish they were..
And then there is being alone which you may choose to do because you want some time by yourself..to think and just be by yourself for a little while..
You can also be alone because you have no friends or family around you,and this could make you feel sad...
There is nothing wrong with wanting to be alone,sometimes ,it doesn't have to be scary or frustrating..... I hope this makes sense..
Have a great day.

I think loneliness and being alone are two very different things. Loneliness is when there is somthing lacking and you don't want to be alone. Alone is being by yourself and can be very positive and good for people. It is healthy to be alone and have time for your thoughts and well being.

I have felt alone and loneliness before I think its normal to feel that way sometimes, I believe its a state of the mind and soul to feel alone or longley due to lack of connection with others or because a person feels like know one truly understands them, I have felt that way and I have close family around me often, but I still feel that way sometimes.
As for it being deadly yes maybe it is a deadly emotion but not for someone who is mentally strong, and understand where the feelings stem from I dont allow the feelings to consume me instead I give myself time to sort the feelings out and eventually they pass. so loneliness is just a fleeting emotion for me the feelings are dificult to deal with but thats life its all about how a person handles there feelings.

The worst thing is to feel lonely when you are not alone.
i rather feel lonely when i"m really alone because it's less painfull.
i actually like being lonely sometimes because it makes me feel more connected to myself and it makes me more creative.
i also think that it is important to feel lonely sometimes, that's another way of learning who you are, not only when you are around people.
but eventually, it's alaways better to have someone close to you to support you in those lonely times.
