Being alone ≠ Being Lonely
10000% agree with this.
My best friend (xtian orthodox) frequently used the term "being bored" throughout our entire friendship of 25+ years, was also the same person who felt immense pressure to get married. He married late in life (early 40's), and I hypothesize that there might be a correlation between those who 'get bored' and also can't enjoy being alone.
As the saying goes, "Enjoying being alone has a power very few can handle or understand."
"Enjoying being alone has a power very few can handle or understand."
This is TRUE!
Never felt so lonely in my life as when married to Mr. Wonderful......
