Social loneliness vs emotional loneliness

Emotional loneliness—the absence of close, intimate connection—cuts deeper than social loneliness, even when you are surrounded by many people; you can feel profoundly unseen in a crowd. Understanding the difference helps you know whether you need more friends or a truer friend, more activity or more depth.
