Being alone and being lonely...

Playing text to speech

It's ok and healthy to be alone sometimes but not everyone enjoys it, some people fall straight into loneliness when they spend time on their own even if it's just for a little while but,

it doesn't have to be that way so first thing first it's important to know the difference between being alone and being lonely. 

Being alone is an observable fact it's you on your own without anyone else around. On the other hand, loneliness is very subjective loneliness is classified as an emotion that is felt,

when you are unhappy about being on your own and give are wanting some kind of companionship that you are lacking.

Loneliness can be felt when you are alone but it can also be felt when your room full of people if you are not with a friend or a loved one or just can't relate to anyone nearby alone.

Being lonely are two different things and don't have to go hand in hand. 

Being alone and being lonely

It is possible to overcome the feeling of loneliness and learn to enjoy and appreciate time alone. 

One key to change the way you see being alone, people who are prone to loneliness often feel fear about being alone. If they are single,

they fear that they will always be single and then being alone becomes stressful, they feel hopeless and descend into loneliness.

People who don't have very many friends or who live in a city far away from the people that they love can feel all kinds of emotion. 

It's important to address these fears and remember that being alone now doesn't mean that you will be alone forever. If you don't want to be alone you can actively work towards changing it.

Whether that means finding a romantic partner or forming new friendships but it's important to know that at the moment, things are not going to change so it's time to make the best of the current situation,

where you just started college, you have moved to a new town or you just like spending a lot of time alone, accept the fact that you have got time to yourself and identify the positive aspect of the situation

for example- if you live alone and you don't have a roommate eating your food, you can decorate however you like and even walk around naked if you wanted to,

if you are single you can travel where ever and whenever you choose, you can spend more time focusing on work without neglecting a partner, you can sleep soundly without someone tossing and turning next to you.

You just have to look at the positive.

Basically, if you don't share your space or personal life with someone, you can do whatever you want without having to compromise or

give up what you want to do, whether that time alone is a regular current or just a single day out of the month.

Being on your own means being able to decide exactly how you want to spend your time without having to work out, a plan that everyone is happy with its all about what

you won't even if you would rather not be alone in a particular moment, recognize that you have a lot of freedom and that it's a great thing.

If you can start to see the situation in a positive light, you won't feel the negativity of loneliness so much.
