Don't you find there is a big difference between being alone and lonely? Yes. I often say, I would rather be alone than with the wrong person and be lonely.

Lonely is a feeling when you don't have anyone to share a smile, a secret, a touch, just someone to stand beside you. Alone is physical Lonely is an emotion Nicely put.

I know many married people who are so lonely they can hardly stand it. They are just putting in time together but really they are seperate.

While feel guilty about something perfectly normal. Some of society uses "guilt" for control. Yet the leaders may be the REALLY guilty.

How about Saturday nights? That's the night where I feel like I don't belong anywhere. Weeknights I'm pretty much too tired to care. Friday night I catch up on all the TV I fell asleep on during the week :o) Saturday morning is errands and such. Then comes Saturday night - couples night - and I just get so frustrated with not having anyone. AMEN!!! I know just how you feel! It is a very lonely night! And what about when you do go out with (couples) and feel like a fifth wheel? I hate it! I deal with that with my sister - I keep trying to get her to meet me for a just girls thing but she always includes hubby and then I feel like an outsider to their "coupledom"

Don't you find there is a big difference between being alone and lonely? Yeap :) I actually NEED alone time every day for centering myself and getting ready for the day and sometimes for detoxing at the end of it...but after awhile, I am ready for company...and then there is no one there...that's when the lonely comes in
