Interesting question. To me loneliness is something we shall have the opportunity to choose, like privacy. I decide what to show about myself just like I would like to decide went to be alone or not. (Un)fortunately social relationships are not built for that (at least for what I experienced)...getting to compromises can be suffering if you're not willing to accept compromises.
To me most people don't like loneliness at all, they simply accept it. Acceptance is fine as long as it doesn't make more harm than good.
