Is loneliness inevitable? I mean, do you think if we had a great friends, a great job, and we really enjoyed out lives, ..do you think that, we would still feel lonely for someone to love? Or do you think, if you´re already happy with the way things are, and if you´ve like always got somethin to keep you busy, occupied, that we would never feel lonely? Or do you think we would always feel like somethin was missin? Is having a partner really somethin we just HAVE to have to actually feel complete? And yeah, i know this is kind of a ridiculous question, but i hope you´ll bear with me, cuz i´ve just always wondered about it.

I don't think your question is ridiculous at all ,, and I'm not sure i can answer it true-fully but will say i felt i was missing out when i was single not really a lonely feeling but a wishful one when i seen my friends with there mates i felt left out ,Like there was an empty spot of not being close with someone else , and now that i have a wonderful man to share my every thought with i cant imagine ever being without him that to me would be the most lonely , I guess i do feel complete now that hes in my life ,

Loneliness is a state of mind. People who need others around them all the time are more prone to be lonely. A person can feel alone when with loved ones, and a person can be alone and not be lonely. But being lonely is a good thing, it can show you where you're at and what you really want in life. There are monks who lives for years on their own and they seem as happy as anyone.

I think we all have moments of loneliness whether or not we have a partner. Being with the wrong person or people can be the loneliest possible experience. I think most people would prefer to have a partner but that doesn't stop a well-adjusted single person from having a very happy and fulfilling life.

I think loneliness depends on your expectations. Like I feel lonely sometimes when my girlfriend isn't online or don't get in contact with me, as me and her used to, initially. I expected the initial push to continue, but these days she is busy with her work and other matters in life, which makes me miss her badly. I hope everything will be settled in her life and she comes back to my arms and never lets go again.

your question is correct. Actually, you may have love partner, job and friends and in the same time to feel lonely. It is because noone of the above persons touch you deeply in your heart.
Sometimes people are together just to appear to public that they are not alone. But loneliness is a state of mind. If you feel that noone had touched your deep core of life, you are lonely.
Alone and lonely is not the same. You may be alone but if you read some book that touches deep in your heart, you are not alone. Also some people has protective barrier to outside world. Even if somebody wants to approach to them, they are hiding inside those high walls.
To ruin such walls means to destroy 'ego'. The meaning of 'ego' in today's world seems as positive but in fact it is protection of your inner world to the outside world. It keeps you safe, like you are wearing black glasses and you see people and they do not see your eyes.
some people think that to destroy ego means to ruin our character. In fact, such ego is cause of many deceases. When a person ruin his ego, then the outside world and his inner world are one. He/she do not feel loneliness but he/she is vulnerable.
People are afraid to get rid of their egos because they are afraid of the outside world. To see the world as it is and to remain part of it require great pain and effords. But in that way you will be stronger to build new city (character) that will be open to trade and for guests.
in the antient times great kings has closed the gates of their kingdoms when sun was shaddowed by moon. In such times the traders and stragers did not travel. Therefore you have to know when to close the gates of your city and when to open them.
Sometimes you have to protect your heart from enemy. If you open your heart to enemy you will be ruined like Troy.
"Owner of the lonely heart is much better than owner of the broken heart"
In today's world many people just want to ruin you and their words and deeds are like viruses that want to harm your computer. You have to know who to let inside your heart.
if the times are tough, it is much better to live inside the castle with the best friends inside.
