Genes Get Lonely Too

Why do women fear being alone and in desperate needof a relatonship , and in fear of trying a new relationship if the one there in is not working?

I think the reason for the weaker immune systems and increase in the cortisol is because lonely individuals are less likely to laugh. When you are with someone you are more inclined to laugh and there are studies showing laughter increases blood circulation and cardiovascular health, therefore should one not have this stress outlet or relief the result is a build up of stress- cortisol... Thanks for sharing the article. Even admist the technological revolution in communication there are still those who are loners strictly due to personality patterns.

This is a wonderful article because it has such a eye-opening view of how we live our lives. Rich or poor, single or married, black or white - our perception is what matters when it comes to loneliness. A great follow-up article, which is hinted at the end of this story, would be how can we create a society that would make it easier to form connections with each other. Are there certain aspects that we could build in our world that would make it easier for people to meet each other and not trust one another more?
