You may not be getting the kind of support, love and care you need in your relationship. It doesn't have to mean that your partner is a bad person, but that perhaps you are mismatched. You should certainly try to communicate your feelings to your partner, both of you could come together to figure it out. If talking doesn't help then maybe the relationship isn't worth maintaining. Self care should always come first, you need to ask for and receive what you need in a relationship and give back just as fervently. If you feel unheard and uncared for it's better to find a partner who is worth your time and effort

Relationships can be tough. I think sometimes we tend to get wrapped up in the whole "honeymoon" stage and forget how much work it really takes for a strong relationship to develop. Why do you think you feel so alone? Do you feel like both of you are working towards a stronger future together? I have asked myself the same question about feeling alone before in some of own past relationships. Despite whatever the circumstances, I realized the one thing that would always make me feel alone, was if we couldn't laugh together, or make each other laugh. That can hurt your heart. What makes your heart hurt that causes you to feel so alone in your relationship? Maybe something to think about.

In most cases if you feel alone in a relationship it's because there's a lack of communication. The relationship has lost it's spark and in certain scenarios it can lead down worse paths.
If you were to address this to the person you're in a relationship with, and see why everything is so separated between each other, could it be because you both lost interest, or your partner lost interest? Maybe spice things up and go on a date, do something out of the ordinary.
Other times it's better to let the relationship go, it really depends on how much you want to put into the relationship and how much effort your partner and you put in equally.

Maybe you feel unheard or unloved. It may be you’re feeling disconnected from your partner like you aren’t as close as you used to be. Or it could be you’re feeling confused about something: you’re trying to resolve a problem but feel unable to talk about what’s bothering you. In a sense, it’s not that common that someone might admit to being ‘lonely’ in a relationship. This tends to be the way someone might phrase things after a period of analysis or soul searching. In reality, loneliness tends to express itself more indirectly. You might find yourself feeling more annoyed with your partner starting arguments or interpreting things they do and say negatively.

Try to spend more time with your significant other! :) Usually when people feel lonely in a relationship, it's because they don't spend quality time together and can feel distant from one another :(

When you feel like you aren't being heard, this can happen. Open up a dialogue. Practice talking AND listening with intent to learn about what another. Relationships are a cycle of interaction. Start by airing out your sense of being alone and then give a solution.

sometimes in a relationship we can always make mistakes no one is perfect but send some flowers to your partner and tell them you are thinking about them and that you will give them a couple of days space but you would like to build the relationship back up and hopefully things will brighten up

I apologize that you feel that way. It could be because not both partners are giving and contributing to the relationship. The relationship might be feeling distant due to lack of communication.

When your expectation is more than what you get,you tend to feel like you're alone in it,humans can't be pleased,so you can't expect your partner to perfect himself/herself with everything you wish.

This may mean you do not feel like you are getting enough support from your significant other. Try to uncover what things make you lonely and see if there is a way you can feel less alone and more loved.
