Being lonely in a relationship. It is more empty than if no one was there at all. I should know because this is how I feel.

Definitely being lonely in a relationship. Relationships are supposed to bring out the best in you. If you are in a relationship that makes you feel lonely, you are better off working on that relationship you have with you self.
This is what I sometimes tell myself when I felt like this. " I would rather be alone and lonely than to be lonely with you. At least then I would be in a fulfilling relationship."
No lie, I know how you feel. Good luck!

Being lonely in a relationship is much worse than being lonely on your own. I speak from experience.
In a relationship you have expectations of your partner, both emotional and physical. When they let you down, for whatever the reason, leaving you feeling lonely and unfulfilled there is nothing you can do about it. You begin to lose your self-esteem. You think there may be something wrong with you. You feel trapped in a loveless cycle that you can't break. And you don't see any way to change because your partner is not willing to see there is a problem, or wiling to help you find the answers to the loneliness.
Being lonely because you have no one in your life is sad, but there is still hope. You don;'t necessarily feel as if you are failing somehow. You don't feel as if there is no hope and you don't have to lose your self-esteem. Maybe you will be alone all your life but you can deal with it because you know you are a good and kind, loving person.
Good Luck

being lonely on your own I think is worse because you have a choice of meeting new people and finding love but you also have a chance of meeting the wrong person and get married to end the loneliness and then being lonely in the relationship without ever discovering yourself and ways to avoid being lonely in the first place.

i think being lonely in a relationship. At least being lonely on your own you don't feel like anyone is letting you down and neglecting you if your lonely in a relationship then something is wrong and you have the added pain of whatever it may cause

Being lonely in a relationship. At least when you are on your own you know where you stand and what to do about your situation. When you're in a relationship and you're lonely, you have to think about the other person, how to get your feelings across to them, how to make it work, is it worth it, and all that other crap that just adds stress to your life.

This is a no brainer. Being lonely in a "relationship" is far worse. You can fix being lonely on your own by putting yourself out there to forge new relationships. You can't make another person love you or turn them all warm and fuzzy when they are shutting you out.

I've been in both and for me being in a relationship and being lonely is worse, I'd rather be alone cause at least you have a reason or excuse to be lonely then.
