Alone And Lonely Are Different

 When you're lost and all alone there ain't no word but lonely

 They Call The Wind Maria

Alone can be crushing
Alone and lonely

 Alone may be a time of sublime bliss. Lonely crushes. Even the most extreme isolationists need to come up for company now and again. The lonely can only wish for company.

So here's my thinking on this situation. If you're a natural born loner, enjoy. If you're lonely, get out there. Join a choir, a bowling league, a book club. Stay off the web and start hanging out with people who are three dimensional. The only way to beat the all alone blues is to mingle.
