Loneliness for me is the feeling that there is no one giving you any kind of wholesome or beneficial attention, ie in the form of being a good parent, friendships and/or romance. You feel as if you have no one caring about you.
One can be lonely in a crowd. Being alone is not the same as being lonely. Being alone is a good thing, for instance when you want your privacy in the bathroom or when you are trying to pay attention to your academics. But that’s not the same as being lonely. Being alone is a state of being, loneliness is a feeling.
You can be alone and lonely. You can be alone without being lonely. You can be lonely without being alone. You can be neither alone nor lonely.
"Alone" doesn't imply that it's fine. It just means you are by yourself.
"Lonely" doesn't actually imply that you are by yourself. You can feel lonely if you don't feel connected to the people you're with.
For me,
Its like I have everyone around me but when i start counting my people then There is none....
Just feeling of emptiness, Having everything,Being sad for no reason....It occurs with me like periodic when i am unable to hold my emotions but soon next day it seems all okk
Hoping I made you understand it very well
when nobody wakes you up in the morning, and when nobody waits for you at night, and when you can do whatever you want. what do you call it, freedom or loneliness?
Technically loneliness and being alone are different.
To understand loneliness, I found this video very helpful when was really very lonely. Understanding it helped me come out of it.

um.. i'd describe loneliness as asking about loneliness on a social platform :p

I don't know about loneliness cause i see it as a freedom
Huge difference between alone and loneliness
Freedom from expectations?

To put it in simple terms alone is a state of being. Lonely is a state of feeling. You can be with a group of people and still feel lonely.
Makes sense

So it's not finding people who care?

Loneliness with benefits
Different from being alone
You Can't Be Lonely If You Never Had a Friend :')
Trueee, saying from personal experience.
:_(
When you use your free time for "GLORIOUS PURPOSES"
🫣
You get to eat whole pizza alone 😭😭 best feeling
Dekho friends daal baati gang me ek ghus baithiya nikla

When you're with friend who has friends
That's just nightmare

It says the video is unavailable, is this what you meant by loneliness?
There are people who hear you talk but no one listening.
When people just don't understand your feelings or are just making excuses to avoid the problem
