Feeling alone while sharing life with a partner may sound impossible to single people, but relationship experts say it happens when the connection becomes disappointing. Part of the problem may be the high expectations people have of marriage and their spouses in general. A partner is expected to be the best friend, excellent lover, close intimate, fun entertainer, stimulating intellectual and more — but one relationship was never meant to provide such a diverse fulfillment of needs, Schwartz noted.

Jessica Painter found herself pining for friends after moving to Calgary from California three years ago. She didn't know anyone in the city besides her husband and her dog, and as someone who worked from home, she found it difficult to meet people. Hungry for community, she'd go to the gym and chat up people, and often they'd wonder what on earth she was doing, she said.
Social sharing
It took Painter roughly a year to build up a true circle of close friends. Along that journey, it struck her how many others were struggling with the same loneliness and isolation.

The friendship club hosts monthly events in the city, like DIY perfume workshops, sleepovers and games nights, with more casual get togethers like weekend happy hours sprinkled between. We keep it maximum 20 people," Painter said. And so if it's more than 20, they just want to run out the door.

Plus it keeps things simpler, she added. If I made it co-ed, it would turn into dating and drama. Though the world is more connected now than ever before in this age of the internet and mobile phones, Painter believes social media actually contributes to loneliness.

Painter hopes to start similar initiatives in other cities in the future, but she says for now she's focusing on continuing her success in Calgary. I watch them through Instagram doing happy hours and all these fun things together, and that just makes my heart so happy, because it means it's working.
