Are introverts lonely

Are introverts lonely or is being alone part of their personality trait? Introversion is often misunderstood as shyness, aloofness, or a lack of social skills.

However, being introverted simply means that one tends to focus inward, gaining energy from alone time rather than social interaction. It is a personality trait that affects around 25% of the population, according to research.

Despite the prevalence of introversion, many stereotypes still exist about introverts and loneliness. It is often assumed that introverts are lonely and unhappy, or that they lack the social skills to form meaningful connections.

In reality, this is not necessarily the case, and the relationship between introversion and loneliness is more complex than commonly believed. In this blog post, we will explore whether introverts are truly lonely and what factors contribute to their experiences of social isolation.
