frankly speaking ,i do not like being alone , i enjoy playing with my close friends , we have the same interest, we talk what we really interest, that's really fun.
but in my opinion , in fact,everyone is alone in the world, no one could come along with me to enjoy the whole life,so i need to learn how to enjoy being alone , learn thinking by myself, talking with myself ,and i think it's also good

Is good to have time for your own, let you study, plans, and somethings like that... but live alone is not good, at least for me i dont recommend it. I'm living alone since 2 years ago and sometimes its hard, come back to home and find anyone...i feel so lonely sometimes =(.

I also love it. I think I am a perfect example of being alone does not mean I am lonely.

Sometimes I like being alone, especially during the day. It gives me time to plan my day, including being on the computer, without paying attention to someone else.
I like to read a good novel in peace too.

I love my alone time. It's easier for me to get things done if no one is around to interrupt. My creativity can go wild and it's easier to keep a train of thought to write music, a jewelry design I want to try or draw up a face or animal that I want to sculpt.
My alone time is very special to me. When my hubby retires I'm going to have to set up a private room in the house just for myself with a DO NOT DISTURB sign on it.. LOL.

Yes I do! And I love it. I could organize my thoughts and be creative and do the things I want to do. I am most productive when I am left alone and I could work on my internet projects and writings etc. I can't work in a noisy environment where people are talking and laughing, so most of the time, I love being left alone.

Oh how I love my "me time". With two small kids and a husband, I need that down time in order to stay sane. I use this time to do some writing (both for fun on here and for my work) and to just be lazy. I enjoy the peace and quiet so much!! Thanks for the discussion!!

Hello there. I love my quiet time too. I love being alone sometimes to listen to my favourite music and think about my life. It usually happens at night. It's hard to get quiet time at night as there're always so many things happening in the day and it's difficult to get quiet time.

No I really don't. I actually want to find someone out that that will care about me and accept me for who I am. It really does suck to be or to feel completely alone all your life. That's all I relaly have to say. Thanks for posting this question! :)

Yeah, the moments with my girl, and with my friends are pretty good, but in the time that I'm alone, I can play my guitar, make plans, write tales, make my songs, my lyrics.. Sometimes it's good to be with someone, but on your "solitude" moments is when you can put your head on.

Yes. I love being alone, because I can be myself. No pretense. I can sing and dance without worries that people are watching me. I can do what I want. I can think of many things about work and life. During moments that I am alone, I assess my life, especially if I have problems. Or I can plan for what I should do during the week or during the month.

I just got married two weeks ago so naturally my hubby and I enjoy spending time together, but that's not to say that we don't have our "alone time," too. Sometimes he likes to watch movies I'm not interested in, and there are the times when I like to go to the cafe for a cup of coffee, and to read the newspaper.
