Hello friends,

Loneliness is a concept that is talked about a lot and has more than one definition. It can be defined the concept of loneliness as the difference between the relationships a person actually gets and the relationships he expects and wants.

At the same time, loneliness is also defined as the negative psychological experience that a person experiences due to feeling alienated and excluded in their social relationships, having difficulty in finding people to be close to.

Social relationships have a vital place in human life. At this point, loneliness can be expressed as a concept that both affects social relationships and is affected by them.

Every person feels a sense of loneliness and emptiness at least once in their life. In some cases, people can experience loneliness with difficulty, while in other cases they can experience it less.

However, regardless of whether it is experienced more or less, loneliness is a difficult and damaging experience in human life .

Although there are different definitions in many theories about the feeling of loneliness, there is a common point that they all agree on. This is that loneliness is a feeling that is perceived differently by everyone.

The ways people describe and experience loneliness vary. While some people do not feel lonely even when there is no one close to them, some feel lonely in a crowd; others feel lonely despite a busy social environment.

Loneliness has more than one dimension. Loneliness is called by different names depending on its symptoms and causes.

Although there are multiple names and types, there are common views on social and emotional loneliness.

Emotional loneliness is a type of loneliness that many people experience but cannot make sense of.

This type of loneliness is caused by a lack of lasting connection in one-on-one relationships, such as romantic relationships.

It is the feeling of loneliness in people who are not physically alone. It is the feeling of loneliness in crowded environments, even if there are friends in the environment.

This is not related to the number of social relationships and communication, but rather to feelings of restlessness and anxiety . 3

Emotional loneliness is a condition that results from a person’s inability to establish close relationships with other people.

People who experience this loneliness feel excluded because they are reluctant to express themselves comfortably in social environments and cannot express what is on their mind.

For this reason, people who feel excluded often distance themselves from social environments .
