That is really true, 'a desire for connection with another person'.. U have someone in mind that you want but you cant have them and you become indulged in allowing your mind 2 wonder and think about them every now and then, you fantasize about what you can have then suddenly realise you dont have anything like that at all. People are around you but you WANT to be alone because of the depression caused. You need time to collect your thoughts until you feel mentally happy again.

Loneliness is the feeling of not being connected with anyone.
by Rin on February 7th, 2010
when you feel no connection with other people... it seems as if you cannot be understood, as if you are living in a bubble and no one can touch you, when all you want is someone to hug you but everyone is busy and don't even have time to smile at you. it's like the feeling you get when you want to cry but know that even if you cry your heart out, the people surrounding you will go on with what they were doing without giving any notice of you. you feel that even if you were to kill yourself in front of them, no one will notice, they will just keep on doing what they were doing before.
it can be devastating.

People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges.

A desire for connection with another person
by AnonymousGirl on July 11th, 2010
A very painful feeling. When I've felt it, it felt like nobody was around who understood me. I felt totally and completely alone and like my presence didn't matter at all. I was too focused on my own pain and felt like I needed something more, something that seemed to be missing, something that I thought would make me whole. I wanted to be included. I wanted to feel wanted. I wanted to be accepted. I wanted to feel like I mattered. I wanted to be loved. I didn't feel these things at those times. Loneliness is excruciatingly painful and can be extremely overwhelming to the point that it eats up your soul. It's very self-destructive and it can feel like a curse that will never be broken.

Do women always win in arguments or insults against men? I don't care if you people say something bad about me.

Why do humans mistake consequence for punishment? God need not punish you when consequence is all the punishment you can handle.

How often do you feel that you have to defend yourself? In hindsight, was it always needed? If not needed, can you let it go next time?
