Is it normal to feel lonely even though you're in a relationship?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, you can feel lonely even when you’re in a relationship. Being partnered doesn’t automatically mean you feel understood, close, or connected.

A relationship can give you companionship and still leave some emotional needs unmet. Stress, busy schedules, mismatched ways of showing affection, or feeling like you can’t be fully yourself can all contribute. Lots of people experience this, and it doesn’t automatically mean the relationship is doomed—or that you’re ungrateful.
