Loneliness

Loneliness hmmm...

 

I personally value alone time but I never push people away (unless I don't like them). I like my friends, my girlfriend, family etc., but I am alone as I write this and feel fine. Being alone gives my brain time to think. I like to think most of my character and who I am today in formed from hours deep in solitary thought. Some people tend to push people away as a defense mechanism. The best way to avoid being eaten by a shark is to never swim in the ocean, so to speak.

There is a huge difference between being alone and being lonely. You may be alone, but you have friends, a girlfriend, family etc., and you are aware of their existance and their relationship to you, even when you are not with them.

By definition, lonliness includes profound feelings of isolation; the awareness that one has no such relationships, even in company.
