Lonely people do not have any live person to bounce their ideas off, celebrate their success or narrate their day to day events so they talk to themselves as if someone is listening to them. They compliment themselves, encourage themselves to do something, take decisions and make goals all while self-talking. Talking to oneself respectfully not only relieves from loneliness but it also helps to clarify thoughts, makes the person smarter, firm up any contemplating decision and line up important things.
