@realyuriyearns It does exist and anyone reading this who is blackpilled: I hope to see you on the other side. Giving up is a choice and it’s suboptimal for you. This is for the charming person looking to be appreciated reading this.
I used to spend long stretches alone in a mountain cabin, & I found the experience entirely satisfactory. Solitude suited me admirably, & loneliness never troubled me.
Then I acquired people I loved. Now that they are perpetually absent, I am frightfully lonely, & I am in that condition continuously throughout the year, quite regardless of whatever jolly company may happen, from time to time, to be in my vicinity.
The conclusion, I fear, is beastly clear: the only reliable method of avoiding loneliness is never to love anyone.
But if I am susceptible to this sort of thing, it is not because I am in any sense gregarious. It is not a desire for company for its own sake; otherwise any jolly assortment of persons would suffice to knock it on the head. Sociability is a broad & rather shallow inclination; love, by contrast, is narrow & deep. Only a very particular sort of company would do.
