I don't think people can be used to the loneliness. i think it is a part of human nature that people try to be included in certain group, meaning that people wants to get rid of loneliness in any kind of forms.

Humans are born as social creatures. We can't get used to loneliness. Some people like being alone more than others do, but that doesn't mean that they're lonely. They enjoy being alone. i think being lonely means wanting the company of others, and in that case, no, people will never get used to it.

I don't think people can ultimately get used to loneliness. Sure, they might find it comfortable and alright for sometime, but after a long period of time, they will start to seek for any human interaction, to share their thoughts with someone else. Being the only one would be quite boring, discouraging, dissipating, etc. People are social creatures. Otherwise, why would we have the word "family?"

I think people can get used to loneliness because as time goes on people will get used to it.

I think people can get used to and cope with loneliness by their own way. For me, I would listen to music and watch youtube when I'm in solitude and feel lonely. I guess one of the reasons for the creations of the technologies and other recreational stuffs should be to entertain ourselves. They serve as some kind of a distraction. But I really think that everyone should feel lonely at some point and the way how they deal with it can be different from one to another.

I would say I do not think we as a human can get used to loneliness since we were born as social creatures,but also I am considering loneliness is one part of human nature.

I would say that it is possible to get used to loneliness when you are totally stranded for a very long time for some reason. Also, it could be possible if you believe solitude is better than companionship. Or, you might get used to it when people around you are not nice to you and there are no other people who are kind to you.

I don't think someone can get used to loneliness. Someone can not feel lonely at all, but it is hard to get used to it when he or she feels lonely at the first time. My grandmother passed away about 10 years ago, and my grandfather doesn't seem like he got used to the loneliness. He is now used to do stuff by himself, but he is not used to being lonely.

In today's day and age, getting used to loneliness can be very easy. All you need is the Internet connection and a device that supports it. People can get used to loneliness after a while. People or any other animal can adopt to their environment after being exposed to it for a long time. Loneliness is not that hard to get used to.

If you continue to look at your solitude as a failure, then you will never be happy with it... but it isn't actually the solitude that is hurting you, it's the sense of failure.

No, people can't get used to loneliness. We are social creatures. Though it feels like nowadays, people are starting to get distant by not having 'real' interaction due to tech and stuff, we still crave for human interactions, that's why we are on social media, we chat/text, etc

I think people can get used to loneliness as everyone gets used to something when they are exposed to it long enough.

I think although people are really social animal and they need to meet each other everyday. However, as everything could be changed, we also would need to meet the time that we are really alone. At that moment, people need to leran how to get used to lonliness. As for me, the best way to get used to loneliness is to find something to do. For example, we mayeb could find something new to learn or just play computer game to use our loneliness time.
