If most are like me, then it matters because it's a normal part of the human condition and not something to be, or can be, treated.

I want anonymous strangers to engage with me in abstract discussion because I find such talk interesting. The talk itself is the fun thing. It's not about anything else beyond. It just intrigues me that there doesn't seem to be a definition of loneliness that doesn't just boil down to boredom, IMHO.
