Is it truly better to be alone and lonely or be with someone and lonely?

Lonliness is bad whether you are alone or with someone. I think you stand more of a chance if you are alone, but not lonely. That can be achieved....you can find interests/friends that make you happy. You can get a job, get a makeover and start to feel good about yourself. You can go out on dates and have heaps of fun, no matter how old you are. I think when you are in a relationship and are lonely would be terrible and I know I would much prefer to take the risk of being alone and happy than being with someone and being unhappy. You can choose to be alone and lonely, in which case why bother leaving your partner if you are thinking you are going to be alone and lonely...that doesnt need to be the case.....and if you are alone then there is a great chance that you will find true happiness, but whilever you remain in a stale relationship and you have fallen out of love with him/her, then there wont be any hope of anything better, unless, of course there is something in the relationship that can be rekindled...but that usually can only happen if both of you are open to counselling. If your other half isnt interested, then you may as well pack your bags...do your grieving, then move on to a happier and UNLONELY wonderful life. You have to be ready for it. You have to have a positive attitude if you are going to make a go of being alone. Alone does not mean lonely...its what you make of it.
I wish you all the best.

Definitely alone and lonely because then you at least know why you're lonely. I'm married and so lonely I can't believe it, and trust me, it's an absolutely terrible feeling. If you're alone and lonely then something might change in the future that will make you less lonely. Being with someone and lonely, it feels like you're trapped for the rest of your life. I can't even get out to meet friend because we have a kid and he goes out all the time.

I'm not really sure because when your with someone that you don't love and feel lonely,i guess you might as well be alone and lonely.
When you are with someone that makes you feel that way it really is time to be alone meaning it's time to find someone new. You only go around once in this world. Don't waste
it on someone that your not happy with.

It's better to be alone and lonely. When you're in an unhappy relationship, it sucks the soul out of you.

Alone and lonely. Anyone who has ever felt lonliness while with someone knows that is THE most miserable experience.
