One thing about you pondering what is worse, to lonely alone or with someone -- being alone ain't great, but being lonely when you are married is worse because with it is hurt and rejection. To be married, but to not really be able to count on someone or feel unattached is a terrible feeling. I mean, I am not married and not seeing anyone, but I have a great network of friends and am really not loney at all. I miss intimacy a great deal, but in time that will happen - at least that is what I tell myself. Sometimes I think about an old boyfriend and using him for the time being LOL. Just joking.
