So, who else here is a loner?

Generally I'd rather stay home. These days it seems most people suck and only want something from you. If I want to be reminded of how many scum bags there are in the world I go read XXXPornTalk.com or LukeIsBack.com. If I miss talking to people I go into an AOL chat room and talk, then when I get fed up I can mute it or turn it off. I love my Dog....
 
My father calls me today and we had a big discussion about why I never go out, have no friends, and how am anti-social. He also got angry because I said I didn't want to have children.

I enjoy my life, doing my own thing and living the way I want to. I love waking up everyday and there's silence. I like laying around and playing video games all Saturday or watching movies all night. They mean well, but my folks don't really understand.

Anyone else feel this way?

how old are you?

are you hideously disfigured or something

what about sex? and hanging out with your mates, and playing sports with them

or even playing video games with them. i did exaclty what you did for about 7 months once, and after a while it gets very old, very samey, very dull and very lonely

Hanging out with your friends every single day, going out to the bar, etc. gets old too. So...:confused:
 
I'm a loner but not by choice! I try to hang out! But to no avail!

I wont give up, one day I have lots of friends to hang with!

im a loner if you wanna call it that i call it perfectley normal. i just like watching moive's and playing music. my parent's still don't get it. they think im just negative becuase i don't talk and stay in my room when im home.im still going to school and im working so i like to spend my freetime my way just like they do all the time but they still attack me about it all the time. but now i have a car and can drive so things may become diffrent.
hopefully if i am never house unless I really need to be anybody have the same problem?
 
Well... main reason for me being, what you can call, a "loner" is because I put 110% on my job. I do have my core/best friends which I once a month go and have a drink with.

Girlfriend. Fuck no!! take way to much time from me. Cost to much too. One-night-stands. Fuck yea!!
 
I tried it but damn people wouldn't leave me alone. I'd have been a very happy hermit. I work more than full time and attend full time college, so I have neither the time nor desire for many friends. I have a couple of workmates-turned-friends and my wife and daughter and that's all I need.
 
I'm not a loner. I like having people around. Go out almost everyday. every weekend is a party till I drop. I enjoy silince en rest. But I enjoy my friends much more. Being alone can waith till I'm 80 or so so I can die in peace
 
Totally agree with the o.p. I'm tight with my brother, and his wife is a pretty cool person too, but other than that, I don't really go in for having friends. I'm sociable enough.......I have enough to say in my classes........I just honestly don't enjoy the human race enough to spend my free time with them.

As far as a relationship goes.........I just don't know. I've been single for years now, about 4........and it hasn't really been that bad. I never get laid anymore, and I really should, to say the least.....it's not like I am an unattractive guy or anything. Right now, and for the forseeable future, I like being alone.

It would really take some very special girl to break me out of my extrememly comfy shell. It's not closed all the time.......I just don't let anyone else in.

And I am very cool:) with that.
 
I have a handful of friends and am in a relationship, play everything from soccer to baseball. But I consider myself to be somewhat of a loner, do'nt like to go out to loud bars or clubs, sometimes even if my friends call me about getting together I tell them I can't for one reason or another, I like being alone most of the time. There's a quote by Robert De Niro in the movie Heat, his date asked I he's lonely and he says "I'm alone, but I'm not lonely", that's the way I feel.
 
I cant believe what I'm reading i usually make jokes about not having friends, but seeing people actually are lonely i don't know what to say. Its nice to have some quite time for yourself once in a while but i don't think i would like it if i didn't had any friends. I don't have a family so friends are important to me.

My girlfriend and her parents are in Aruba but i still email and call her just cause i miss her. To be honest i never had much respect for my ex girlfriends at least i didn't care for them, that's why most of my relations ended in the same week. Things changed and I'm trying to be serious now, which isn't easy and i have to sacrifice a lot but i know I'm doing it for a good cost.

About going out, i did that a lot and i still go out once in a while but i have so much shit to do most of the time that i cant go out. Friends come over to my place we talk play games or we go to the gym.

I'm not a loner and i think nobody should be a loner. Get yourself together what's life worth it if you don't have people to share it with.

When it comes time to go home I am sometimes a loner, otherwise, I like parties and friends !! the more the merrier so long as it isn't a high density situation.
 
I've been off from work for 4 days now (since we has 2 snow days and Christmas). I haven't left the house at all except to go to Burger King. Good times, good times. I love being alone.
 
I have always been a loner. Younger, i was fighting against myself to meet people, make friends, etc And at some point, i accepted it was my nature.

I rarely meet my (few) friends. Just staying in touch.

And exactly like Psychology, it worries my parents (who are both around 70) and they talk often about it. Of course, they would love to become grand parents but they also don't understand my ways.

As i'm closer and closer to 40, i'm often questionning myself about the way i live but... even if i regret something, i know i'm just following my natural inclinations and i would be as much if not more worried, stressed and all mixed up if i wasnt.
