Online friends, followers, or likers dont necessarily add up to much when you crave fulfilling interaction, and satisfying, long-term relationships are not a mystery to be left up to chance (or technology). The good news is that, according to relationship coach Kira Asatryan, loneliness has a reliable antidote: the feeling of closeness. We can and should cultivate closeness in our relationships using the steps outlined in this book: knowing, caring, and mastering closeness.
Whether with romantic partners, friends, family members, or business colleagues, these techniques will help you establish true closeness with others. The simple and straightforward actions Asatryan presents in this wonderfully practical book will guide you toward better relationships and less loneliness in all social contexts

Praise for Stop Being Lonely

A must-have in a world where technology is increasingly distancing us from others while it creates the illusion that it is doing just the opposite.

Anna Jedrziewski,Retailing Insight

I love this book and welcome its valuable exploration of an important topic. Loneliness is a modern-day affliction, and Kira Asatryan dives into the experience of loneliness with skill, sensitivity, and insight. The book flows beautifully through various inquiries, complemented with great questions and journal prompts at the end of each chapter. The content is honest and bold as well as compassionate. This is a refreshing and essential reading prescription for modern life.

Jackee Holder, coach and creative catalyst

Kira Asatryans book is a lifeline for people struggling to build and maintain meaningful relationships in our plugged-in, fast-paced society. At the height of the app revolution and with the proliferation of chat apps on smartphones and tablets, the ability to really connect with others remains critical to our personal well-being and social development. Far from being just your typical self-help book, Stop Being Lonely is a sociological inquiry into the nature of relationship building, providing educated advice on how to form lasting, meaningful relationships.

Rune Vejby, author of Texting in Sick: How Smartphones, Texting, and Social Media Are Changing Our Relationships

Stop Being Lonely is one of the most valuable books Ive ever read, and I read a lot. It addresses a problem so common we dont even notice that its impacting our lives. Kira Asatryan helps us see that loneliness can be destructive but that with knowledge and guidance it can be overcome. I recommend you get one copy for yourself and another for a friend or family member. Everyone needs to own a copy of this important book.

Jed Diamond, PhD, author of The Irritable Male Syndrome and The Enlightened Marriage

Kira Asatryan describes a hidden, insidious, debilitating plague of our time: loneliness. She helps us understand the cultural trends that give rise to it and the terrible toll it takes on our peace of mind. Most important, she shows the reader how to combat its damaging effects by following her simple steps to restore caring connections with loved ones. Her book is an absolute must-read for anyone wishing to deepen the quality of their relationships and their life in general.

Linda Bloom, LCSW, coauthor of 101 Things I Wish I Knew When I Got Married and Secrets of Great Marriages

Despite our 24/7 connectivity to friends, families, and coworkers, many of us experience a sense of isolation and loneliness because were not developing close relationships. Kira Asatryans new book guides us with practical advice and simple steps to build fulfilling, deep connections in all areas of our lives.

Christine Hassler, speaker, coach, and bestselling author of Expectation Hangover

Stop Being Lonely is an accessible, soulful, and wise book about making and deepening real connections with the people in your life, including yourself. While wide-ranging in its scope, the book is also beautifully practical and specific. Its topic is of central importance in any age but especially timely as we continue to navigate our ever-changing digital world. Highly recommended.

F or as long as humans have gathered, there have always been those who have found themselves a little on the outside. Their peers may have perceived them as different, or they may have perceived themselves as so. Relationships may have been harder for them to find, and a struggle to keep. For as long as people have attempted not to be alone, there have been those who have still been lonely.

Historically, loneliness was a result of rejection by the tribe. You had to cross some unspoken line or break a taboo to be shunned. You had to set off alarm bells in some way. There was a reason for ones isolation from the group and resulting loneliness, and it was a somewhat rare occurrence. Loneliness was the exception, not the rule.

Today, in the Western developed world, loneliness is becoming more the rule than the exception. Nearly everyone struggles with loneliness at some point; youd be hard-pressed to find anyone who hasnt suffered at least a short stint of painful loneliness. Youd hardly know it, though, since loneliness no longer looks the way it once did.

Loneliness is no longer characterized by rejection from the group or an inability to find a mate. Today, isolation is often experienced by highly functional people who have no apparent cause for feeling separate. This type of loneliness is hard to pinpoint, even by those in the throes of it. Its a new kind of loneliness, one that is not typified by a lack of people in our lives. Its an internal loneliness, a loneliness of the heart and mind.
