Rejection

---

Most people choose the path of loneliness as a result of numerous rejections, for example a young guy trying to mingle with a lady but every try ends up in being rejected at the end he will choose to give up and mind his business which results in loneliness.

---

Abuse

---

Mostly common amongst teenagers, you may see a child who will always like to walk and play alone because others refuse to go easy on him or her, resulting in them trying to avoid those abuse which of course leads to loneliness.

---

Stigma

---

Now when stigma is being attached to something that means that people thinks that it is something to be ashamed of, some people who have a deadly decease like AIDS before were most likely to be stigmatized which leads to loneliness and depression to the victim.

Secret on the other hand can lead to loneliness because when a person has something to hide and refuse to share it may prompt him or her to avoid people which would definitely lead to loneliness and depression.
