Many people cannot distinguish between loneliness and solitude. They despise both.
@LnzyHou @normsmusic Solitude is a glorious state ... until you get lonely. And then hopefully you have a few people skills to go out and get a fix ... or a simple strategy like hanging out in the company of humans ... or just petting a cat.

Solitude is not necessarily loneliness.
Not many people are good with solitude.
I really enjoy mine in the woods.
I have a neighbor (3 miles away) who "thinks" she likes solitude, but in driving in to town daily for groceries, gym, visits, etc.
I can stay for weeks out here alone.
I do talk to the cats and other animals 😉
