It means that you don't have anyone to talk to, hug, or just them being there for you. Yes, they might be physically there but if they don't acknowledge you then they aren't there which leads you to loneliness.
For example: You are having dinner at a restaurant with your friends and/or family. They are talking and talking but they aren't talking to you or even talking about you. You are just in the background.
If something similar happens to you daily, then that means feeling lonely all the time. Not having someone there for you emotionally for any situation is lonliness

When you feel lonely all the time, it probably means that there isn't anyone in your life that you feel like you can be your true self around. This is why people who have tons of friends and acquaintances can still feel lonely even when they're surrounded by people. You don't need many friends to feel truly connected with others; you just need a few people that you can share every part of your personality with, aka your "tribe". Only by finding people who truly love and accept you for who you are (and vice versa) will diminish any feelings of consistent loneliness.

Feeling lonely all the time means you think nobody is there for you. Nobody seems to listen or care for the problems going on in your life and it is very detrimental to your well being. Feeling lonely is completely normal, and everyone goes through it. But feeling lonely all the time means you don't have a sense of comfort from anyone and struggle on a daily basis to have trust in others to be kind and there for you. Feeling lonely all the times does not mean anything is wrong with you, and it happens to the best of us.

You can be standing in a crowded room and feel like no one notices you, no matter how hard you want to reach out. Sometimes you’re scared of the rejection so you’d suffer in silence.
The worst feeling about being lonely is being forgotten by someone you wouldn’t forget, lonely is not being alone. It’s the feeling that no one cares. You’re always others shoulder to cry on but no ones your shoulder to cry on. It can make you question who you are, think you did something wrong or that you deserve it. You wouldn’t wish this feeling on anyone.

Relatively speaking, I'd say it means you feel like you are lacking something or have a void in your life. Loneliness is something that you can overcome as long as you surround yourself with friends and loved ones, you will probably become motivated and less focused on feeling lonely. I'd recommend that in addition to making sure your relatives, friends, etc. know how you feel. Don't be silent about it. We have listeners who would be happy to just listen to how you're feeling. Sometimes just talking to someone helps with the lonesome feeling for a duration of time. We also offer therapists available to help you through such difficult times.

Most of the times when you feel lonely it was because you empty on the inside and no sense of purpose. One way to deal with loneliness is by fill it in. Just like a jug without a water you have to fill it in. If you ever feel lonely reach out to people. Dont care who are they. If you are surrounded by toxic people then by all means stay away from them. And try to seek help from other people even if they are a stranger, you will never know who will come into your path. Perhaps it might be the wisest decision you have ever make. We heard it countless time, the first step is always the hard one, but for those who are struggling to wake up from the pain or lost of the loved ones, heartbroken, abused. Every step along the way has always been very difficult for them. So whoever read this and you need some help and support. Please feel free to reach me out and i will help in every possible way that i can think of.

it means even when you are surrounded by your friends and family you feel isolated all the time. you feel as if no one could relate to what you’re feeling and feels like opening up your problems and concerns to anyone could be a bother. you could also feel irrelevant and feel like you don’t fit in most situations. it can be very frustrating and tiring at the same time. you might not be understood by your peers. you might also feel like communicating is just a must to fit into this social human society. you try to put a smile at all time but feels alone on the inside

When you feel lonely all the time it's like you're so empty inside. Like you have nobody to talk to. Like you are always alone. Like nobody wants to listen to you. When you feel lonely, you could be suffering from depression. Being lonely also could be happening for no reason, which is another sign of depression. Feeling lonely is a terrible feeling, and there's not always a solution or answer to it. So to sum it up, it could be depression, it could be for things you're experiencing in your life, and it could also be for no apparent reason.

It is possible that you do not have enough people to whom you can relate (with your worldview or situation, feelings, experience or mindset, thoughts or interests etc). If that is the situation it would be nice to reflect and see what things would you like to share or with who would you like to listen and then try to find those people with whom you have something in common. It is Ok that we feel lonely on our own or with family, friends. We all are different, so we do not share many things. When people around us can not relate it feels like they do not get us.

Feeling lonely can be a symptom of other issues. It could be that you need more activities to participate in, regular time to connect with family and friends in a meaningful way, or that you are just lonesome.
I think that there are times in a lives especially during the mundane and boring task that we do over and over again through out the day that can be enhanced by having some one to do them with. I also however recognize that a lack of positive motivation in our day to day can leave room for us to assume that others will make things better for us. Having downtime is good, but idleness can cause more trouble than its worth.
So evaluate how you are spending your time and adjust where you need to. Journal to help you keep track of the times that you are feeling lonely and try to get to the root cause. you can feel lonely and be around people, so making sure that you are connecting and communicating to the people in your life should help as well.
