I love having solitude and being on my own. In fact, my husband and two sons lived in an apartment for 2 years and I seldom saw or conversed with our neighbors because I enjoy staying home.
When my kids are asleep and my husband's at the office, I spend my time reading, cross-stitching or watching TV, and I'm very okay with that.
But when I get to go out with friends or relatives, I also know how to enjoy myself. It's just that I'd like those moments to happen only once in a while and not often. Being "alone" for me will never be considered as "lonely" :)

I am married and have 3 kids and while I love my family, it is nice to just be able to "get away" now and then.

When I was younger, I used to get lonely much easier. But since I have gotten older and I have more responsibilities, it's nice to just have some time alone :).

I guess I am a people person really although sometimes it can be a pleasure to sit alone and quiet. I like to have friends around a lot of the time, the house is usually full of people and visitors over the weekends, but recently I have been able to take time out and sit quietly reading a book

I think it's good to have a balance too. It's nice to have someone to talk to, but then again, it's also nice to be able to relax :).

I really love to be around my freinds, but from time to time I just want to be om my own.

I can totally relate to that. It's nice to just have peace and quiet sometimes :).

I also prefer to be alone. When I am alone I can do what I want when I want. But when other people are around, they hamper my plans and just want to sit around doing nothing!

Honestly, I dont know. I am a shy type of person so I don't usually approach people but I also hate to be alone coz I don't want to feel pity on myself. It also depends on my mood. There are times that I want to be alone when I have problems and thinking of the solution to it. There are also times that I want to meet lot of people like going to parties, gimmicks, bars etc...=)
