The problem with being lonely is that it seems at first that the only cure is to have someone else around. The problem with that solution is the only requirement is that the other someone doesn't mind being around you. Other glaring faults and mismatching of likes and dislikes, personality, etc, can get lost in the "at least I'm not alone" feeling.

In between my divorce and meeting my wife (of 25 years now) I had battled loneliness at the beginning of my new status of being "single" and discovered that being alone is much better than spending/wasting your time with the wrong people.

Remember, one of the benefits of being a single male is that you can say something out loud in your home and now not be wrong.
