Scout feels that Mayella is the 'loneliest person in the world' because she is living in an environment that doesn't suit her. Mayella longs for a better life at home and feels trapped. She feels that nobody cares for her or wants to look after her. The adult example in her life doesn't show any respect for who she is and doesn't treat her as a daughter. It's as if she is closeted from the world and that her life is separate from other people's because she is a Ewell.

Because Mayella's father was constantly drinking and her siblings were not friendly to her. Mayella didn't go to school, her mother died, and she had no friends.

Mayella doesn't understand what a friend is. She has seven siblings she has no connection with, and an abusive father.

What conclusion does Scout draw about mayella?

Scout feels sorry for her because she doesn't have anyone to take care of her. She doesn't get any love from anyone in her family.

So before Scout hated Mayella because Mayella was going to get Tom Robinson killed because of her own pity guilt, Scout tried to fully understand where she was coming from. Mayella had no social status and if she where to start it off with her kissing a black man she would be a bigger reject then Atticus when he chooses to defend Tom Robinson.
