Loneliness is being alone and wishing you were with someone. Solitude is enjoying being alone.

Loneliness is feeling alone whether you are actually physically alone or not. Solitude is to be physically alone by choice.

Solitude can involve loneliness, but it can also be pleasant and voluntary. Loneliness is neither. As an example, the poet Percy Shelley wrote about “tranquil” solitude.
