Is it normal to wonder how people cope being lonely?

I've always felt lonely, and I'm so used to it now, that the feeling of loneliness just seems so normal and natural for me. It honestly, just feels like a part of my personality now. I don't even care all that much anymore. I've learned to live with it, and its become a part of who I am.

I think I came to the conclusion a long time ago that no matter where I am, no matter how many people are with me, or around me, I'll always feel so distant. Lonely. And I'm kinda just relaxing in it.

I know I'll probably never be completely alone. I'll always have people around me somewhere. I might not have a boyfriend or a best friend, but they'll always be people somewhere hanging around me. Probably family. But that doesn't mean I'm not lonely. Its probably one of the hardest feelings for me to erase. I think that when you can't find someone or something to relate too, or connect with, and you always feel like an outcast no matter where you are or who you're with, the feeling of loneliness will find a way to creep up on you. And once its there, its very hard to get rid of. You should learn to manage it properly, though. You know, without becoming an addict of some kind.
