This article explains a lot about loneliness, the whys, the hows and everything in

I found this last night and it took me over an hour to read through I guess. This is one of those articles that isn't based upon a person's personal encounters but is full of scientific facts, studies and researches regarding to loneliness. You might get surprised at how much research is going on about it and how important it is from a psycho-scientific perspective (so it isn't just something that you and I "feel").
