Do you ever "grow out of" needing companionship?

good question. i guess to answer it i have to ask a question. why do you need companionship? what purpose has it got for your?

aside from boredom, when i was younger, it served no purpose for me so i was fine with not having to deal with people other than out of necessity. i've been living with my kid for the last 22 years, so i can't say if it's changed or not. i do not have any close friends, other than her, at present and do not miss them. i'm not sure if things would change if she were to move out or if they'd stay the same. it's nice to have someone around to share things with, but not essential.
