You aren't actually connected to them just physically there.

Depresión Cargar con muchos pensamientos y ansiedad y llevarlos a una fiesta... El estar rodeado de gente no implica estar acompañado Existe la soledad y el aislamiento y también Existe la soledad social y la soledad emocional

Qualidade e conexão são totalmente diferentes de quantidade. Muitas vezes estamos lotados de pessoas ao redor, mas sem nenhuma conexão verdadeira nos sentimos sozinhos

On a beau être entouré de centaines de personnes qui nous aiment et que l'on aime aussi, cela n'empêche pas que l'on se sais différent

It's about connection, not just physical presence. Some of the biggest reasons people might feel this way include lacking a solid support system or being in a different chapter of their life than their loved ones. People might also have trouble relating to others for loads of reasons, like identity differences, different interests, or because they feel like they can’t be fully vulnerable or by themselves around them.

Esa sensación de "soledad en compañía" es una de las experiencias humanas más universales y paradójicas. La clave está en que la soledad no es la ausencia de personas, sino la ausencia de conexión.

​Loneliness is not a lack of people...it is a lack of Prana means life force flowing between individuals...to bridge the gap...one must move past the physical presence & engage the vijnanamaya Kosha sheath intellect & intuition(there are 5 layers) through meaningful authentic dialogue 🌌🧘‍♀️♾️

There might be an empty-ness in their heart, something hollow which they do not know how to convay or talk about. Something so deep rooted that, though it's prominent they just can't express it. This leaves a flaw so deep that it makes them feel alone dispite even being with the love of their life. The fight a battle nobody has heard or might not even listen about.

Het gevoel van er niet bij horen is denk ik iets wat hoog meespeelt in beide situaties. Ik denk dat het daarom soms ook eenzamer voelt in bijzijn van anderen dan eenzaam op jezelf alleen. Je wordt er dan namelijk harder mee geconfronteerd, hoe tegenstrijdig dat ook klinkt eigenlijk. (edited)

Short answer: because loneliness isn’t about being alone — it’s about not feeling emotionally seen, understood, or connected.

Um mal eine spirituelle Komponente reinzubringen: Alles ist miteinander verbunden durch den Äther und wenn Menschen in Spaltung denken und leben, führt diese Energie zu innerlicher Einsamkeit, auch wenn Menschen drum herum sind. Energie lügt nicht. Der konditionierte Verstand schon.

Because proximity does not equal connection. There's a big difference between being AROUND people versus being WITH people. And even then, being with them doesn't necessarily mean you are connecting with them, especially if you're introverted.

Cause the people around them may only focus on talking instead of listening and having an actual conversation.
