Relationships and Loneliness

As an only child, I'm unsure I ever experienced "true" loneliness. But there are different types of loneliness such as that of social connection just as well as loneliness which results from a lack of romantic loneliness. I am not a marriage counselor or coach, just speaking from nearing 18yrs with the same person and all the things one should consider while they feel lonely. Or is this void something of a self-love that you should give yourself so you're able to navigate the challenges that any long term friendship or romantic relationship may challenge? This is just a topic I've been thinking about and open to discuss.
