Just because a person is alone it doesnt mean they are lonely.

Voted Yes. Better be on my own surrounded by good Friends, then in a relationship where I'm not happy just not to be on my own. Unhappy relationships can turn in Hell sometimes.

claudya: You have right to be lonely in two hurts more.
this has been addressed many times here. I forget the exact saying, but it's something like: "No deeper despair than a lonely marriage". Yes, I would much rather be alone and lonely than with somebody and lonely. Perhaps some people would disagree with me, and for them, they could be right, but one can always get a dog. If not allowed, a parrot of some kind. Anybody out there ever have a person in their life they just wished would go somewhere else? What a hassle. Like freak flypaper, baby! I don't even think room mate situations are very good. Get a studio apartment. There is no palace big enough for two----- trust me.

Sure do, that's why I am single. It's no fun being with somebody who does not make your heart sing. In fact, it feels even lonelier when you are with somebody just to be with somebody who does not connect with you. I've found being single can be a wonderful thing if the time is used efficiently to understand yourself better and finding meaning in your life that does not place a strong emphasis or infatuation with having to have a partner.

Being single does not necessarily mean that you are lonely. It's all a matter of perception and adapting. That is my experience.

Having said that, I'd love to have a girlfriend to experience intimacy and share my life with, but my happiness does not depend on it.

I have to freely admit that I went through the male mid-life crisis of the fear of being alone forever and I made an error in judgement in settling for someone that I had a feeling wasn't right for me, but I was willing to try...to save this inherent fear of being alone.

I will NOT make that mistake ever again and will remain 'lonely' - although I prefer the word ALONE - if that is the way it turns out.

(1) You're erroneously assuming being single equates to being lonely. When one is desperate, that's the worst time to look for a relationship. You'll end up with someone who takes advantage of you.

(2) Even if someone is miserable, it's better to be single and miserable than be married and miserable. Single people don't have to deal with divorce, acrimony, or arguing about money, property or child custody.

Having been in a marriage where I felt like the loneliest person on the planet, I'd much rather be alone and lonely - at least you're not being ignored and made miserable! Don't settle for anything but perfection people!!

i hope the OP meant 'alone' cause there's a difference between lonely and alone :)
I would definitly prefer to be by myself in terms of relationship, instead of having a bf/partner just for the sake of it.. I love me for who i am, with my flaws and virtues. My guy should complement me and not to complete me :)
