I can't tell whether I'm a loner by choice, or victim of circumstance, but I often go places alone when I don't have official plans, and I'm just running errands. It's faster that way, and I kind of enjoy the freedom. I won't go to a movie alone, and I'm not too wild about women seeing me alone in bar or club- you already have a "creep strike" against you in those cases.

Any one else think maybe we should all move to the same town?

That being said, I'd really like to go places with some friends. I only rarely get to do this. School was my only social life, but since I graduated I'll probably never see many of those people in person again. I'm going to have to start over and make new friends in college, and I'm not sure if I'll have much luck with that.


I was like this too, so when I got to uni I treid really hard to make some friends. This tired me so much that I stopped doing it and now I'm myself again. I do have 2 good friends who just like me don't like to go out and social stuff like that. They both have groups to do those things with when they feel like it. The best thing is that I met them after I stopped trying to get liked by everyone, because they are on thesame course as I. So, don't fret, you're going to a place where there are loads of people with at least 1 interest in common.

I get a lotta FLAK because I'd rather do things alone rather than with a girlfriend or wife. The constant attention would drive me absolutely BATTY!

But it's much better for me this way!

When I feel the need to interact, I have a built-in network to do that with. When THAT becomes overwhelming (or just TO MUCH), I go off by myself again.

I just don't do much. When I do go somewhere, it's by myself. I don't mind shopping or eating out or even going to a bar for a drink by myself, but I don't like activities such as going to movies, concerts, baseball games, etc by myself. I pretty much stay home and watch TV.

Im a loner and do try to get out but get upset in crowds so feel uncomfortable if not in my happy place or one of them, I can manage a walk round the block by myself as long as its not at a period in the day when im likely to see people I went to School with as I don't like reminders of High School.

Yeah I do pretty much everything alone. I always go shopping by myself. I'm just used to it. I don't think I would like to have someone come along with me. I don't like the cinema and I don't eat out alone because I get bored. I'd rather stay in so that I can watch tv while I eat or listen to music.

I think that there are alot of things that I would do that I don't do because I have no one to go with. I have alot of interests, but I wouldn't go and visit a nature reserve by myself for example. I wouldn't go on holiday by myself, so I don't go on holiday.

i breathe on my own.
my heart beats alone.
i see.. and i own what i see.
i see nothing in concert with anyone else.
and i guess that defines,
who is "me".

I often go out with church friends, but I don't really get along with them.

I don't have any friends so I normally go places with my mum or cousin. I wish I had the confidence to go places (within reason) on my own but I find it hard just going to the shops on my own. :( :lol:
