Those statistics seem to be AI hallucination.
Also, if you have one sexual intercourse encounter per year, you're not lonely? AND you could be pounding every week and still be lonely because the chemistry is not there, the love is vapid. People can just wank or pound for sexual release, but it doesn't solve loneliness. Hell, people are lonely in a household of 6 people. Why? Because everybody is doing their own thing, ambivalent of each other. Thus, they can be lonely.
The feeling of loneliness is likely the basis for "I missed you." Forlorning. And it's noticed during reflection, alone.
We grow up in schools, where we've known 60%+ (of our class) since 1st grade (or earlier), and now -- in adulthood, we're thrown into a world full of strangers, everyday strangers. Friends help, but it doesn't mend that community we had in our day-to-day school work.
The movie "Shame" is a pretty good example of lonliness despite having sex constantly. I think it was with Michael Fassbender and from 2012, but it's been awhile so I don't remember. Good movie, though. Real feel bad film.
