Can you be just as lonely in a relationship as without a relationship?

Question

Guy13 · Accepted Answer

Relationships are intimate attachments that affect emotional, mental, and in some cases physical health and behavior. These effects are both positively fulfilling and negatively unfulfilling. When intimacy is lost focused communicative actions should be made. We grow together and our needs, expectations, and wants may change. It is a  guarantee  and that’s where stagnation and disconnect most often originate.  We are now beyond the communication hogwash. Actions, such as two ledger pads, one white yellow, need to be ascertained. Each spouse are to write their current Expectations, Standards, . snd Requirements are.. Better communication is not one of them -No 💩 listings are not allowed.  Search Thyself like you give a F-.  These ledger pads are to be exchanged. Leave the judgments, cry 😭 babies defensive 💩 at the gym…etc.  Now, without “fixing” take your pads back and do Same process for  Beginning Relationship Needs.  Exchange pads.  Laugh at then vs now. Fix with specific activities to meet each other’s Listing at  both stages.  This often when you take your efforts to a PhD clinical or relational psychologist. You are there for “Fix It” not DSM diagnosis.  Make this abundantly clear on Zoom or phone interview before throwing your cash away for theoretical nonsense when  practical fixes  are required.  
 Good luck 🍀

More so. Expectation is the mother of resentment and resentments destroy relationships. It’s easier to be lonely without the expectation of companionship than it is to be lonely with the expectation of companionship. If you can expect only one thing from a committed relationship, it’s companionship.

You can be even  MORE  lonely, in a bad relationship than being single. You can be in a room full of a 1000 people and  still  be lonely.. It's to do with  your  mental state, how you let others treat you and what you do to let it effect you afterwards. All these things are within  your  control, you've just got to learn how to harness it!! 💯❤️

Yes, it is possible to feel lonely in a relationship even when you have a partner. Loneliness can stem from feeling disconnected, misunderstood, or unsupported in the relationship. It may also be due to a lack of emotional or physical intimacy with your partner. Additionally, it is important to note that being in a relationship does not necessarily eliminate other sources of loneliness, such as a lack of fulfilling social connections or personal fulfillment. It's important to have open and honest communication with your partner about your needs and work together to build a strong and supportive relationship.

TruthBringer · Answer

YES, and it is very serious if it is the case The worst type of loneliness is being around people and still feel lonely. In general, this can be a very big sign of emotional abuse going on in a relationship. I've been unlucky enough to have dealt with it in a previous relationship many years ago. Being the only one to invest and end up feeling like I didn't matter. No matter how much I invest, I've been repaid with social exclusion and all other kinds of manipulative tactics.  It's far better to be lonely & alone than to be lonely while being in a relationship with someone who makes you feel alone.

SCARRED · Answer

it can be that in both directions in a relationship.

it gives and take and lots of communication, need to keep the channels.

open you need to listen and give each other space and time!

and you both need to care and think about everything.

before you speak and act. your actions can screw up.

everything and break a heart and can't ever fix.

or get the relation back with someone you love.

I remember in High School English class my teacher asked someone to use the word neglect in a sentence. I raised my hand and said “a husband neglects his wife.” He embarrassed me by saying with animated confusion “How can a husband neglect his wife?” Then moved onto someone else for a sentence. I realized he was kind of clueless and I was kind of a cynical realist in that moment. I felt like crap after he said that to me but the point is yes people can feel very alone even in official relationships. But it’s what we learn from that and how we choose to move forward that is important. I don’t think there is a permanence to feeling lonely, unless it’s some apocalyptic situation, so make sure you have the tools to remedy it.

If you’re in the wrong relationship it is very lonely as you can’t talk to the person who is meant to love you.

When I was in a relationship she was so engaged in playing her stupid games that I didn’t matter she made me feel like the loneliest person in the world and I hated her for that. I soon dumped her.

I’m alone now but I don’t feel lonely I do have some days where I wish I had someone to talk to but it soon passes.

A relationship is a reflection of ourself, if you go looking for a relationship to make your life feel more whole, it’s more likely you will be shown even more how empty you really are when you are by yourself or go through hard times.

The thing is it's all about the healthy mentality... lie if a person is not healthy he or she can't be happy with or without their partner...

When you feel alone with others its usually because you don't feel understood or appreciated. So yes its possible to feel alone even though we are not.

NostalgiaSenpi · Answer

You could always not have your needs met in the relationship, especially if your partner is distant, either emotionally, physically, or both.

Haha456 · Answer

if you're lonely in your relationship, you might want to question why you're still in that relationship. is it because you're too used to living life with that person? or are you afraid of moving on because someone new intimidates you?
