Exactly. The article also mentions people can pay to not be lonely. I tried this once and it made the loneliness 100x worse. It some ways it felt like a rock bottom. I wouldn't recommend it.
Just sitting silently with someone can eliminate loneliness, no words needed... sometimes that's preferred. The idea that someone needs to be in an active conversation to not be lonely is missing the mark.
