Do you feel lonely when you're alone?

Some people instantly think, when they see someone alone, that the person is lonely. What do you think?

Depends on the person. Some people are more extroverted. Some people don't feel lonely even if they are alone for long periods of time. Each of us is uniquely and beautifully different. :)

No, of course you don't have too feel lonely if you're alone. I'm one of the loners and it's the other way around for me. I'm annoyed if I can't have a lot of time on my own. People that know me know it, and who cares what people that don't know me think. If they're judging from their own perspective (and they do), then they're the ones who feel lonely.

 

I'd say, as mentioned before, that people are more likely too feel alone in the crowd, surrounded by other people.

If some people instantly think, when they see someone alone, that the person is lonely then we would have to conclude that it would be the way they would feel if they were to be alone (or, may be, that you were just looking pretty miserable at the time :-))…
But from reading most comments here, it is nice to find out that most of us don’t always relate loneliness and being alone while even finding some virtues in being by oneself...
I’m a very social person (and, you’ve guessed it, over talkative at times ;-)) because I enjoy people’s company but I can stay days alone, indoors or outdoors in the wilderness, and, thoroughly, enjoy it!
Take care!

As to me, I don't feel lonely at all when I'm alone. On the contary, I enjoy the solitude. From my perspective, dealing with solitude would be considered as a kind of ability that one should learn to acquire.

 

However, I do agree that people are different. What is enjoyable to some would not be the same to others. Therefore, it'd be not easy, nor appropriate, to make any judgement instantly. 

 

Besides, one can also feel lonely if s/he is in a crowd. For example, if s/he feels isolated from the group of people s/he is with or s/he feels bored by the crowd.
