Loneliness.

I personally think loneliness is misunderstood by many.. though I don't know every single person in the entire world. But many that I've met believe that loneliness, feeling alone, comes from when you're by yourself. I've had many people walk up to me in the past just because I'm sitting by myself. They clearly don't understand that some people like to be by themselves. But that's not truly being alone.

True loneliness, for me, is an aching feeling inside. When it feels like nobody cares, when you want to be with someone you can't be with. That's true loneliness. I see loneliness as.. longing.

The longing to be cared for. It feels like nobody cares, which makes you feel alone in your problems.
The longing to be with someone you cannot. You feel alone because you cannot be in their presence.

I don't know if loneliness is like this for everyone, but it's like this for me. Loneliness isn't just 'being alone.'

I think the way you've described loneliness, is the same for many, many others.

For me I feel like loneliness can be mentally. Not physically - like. U can be surrounded by people. By friends by family or even have the person U love and yet still feel lonely. Just without a reason. Just lonely yk?

Yep, aloneness is not loneliness. I luv my own company, sometimes better than being with someone.
The homogenized definition of loneliness has been created to write thoughts and can be rejected by anyone who chooses to do such, a fabricated concept that doesn't have to be actionable processed, as is my individual interpretation of such conceptually
