Do you want to be alone sometimes?

Welcome to the club! Many of us experience this sort of feelings every now and then. Even I! Sometimes, we just need our space and break free from the restrictions that held us down. That includes the commitments and relationships (friendships, cousins, family) around us. We just yearn to break free of all of them and just enjoy some 'me' time! Though when my friends SMS or call me when I am in those 'wanting to be alone' sort of mood, I don't get angry. Haha rather I just go 'Missing-in-Action' (MIA) and ignore all their calls and messages. Over days, they will soon get the hint and well, leave me alone till I contact them. And during those 'me' times, I won't even come onto Mylot to chat (even though I love it to bits!). I would just well, enjoy time by myself! I will just sit down on my bed, switch on the television and read my books. When the time comes to eat or sleep, I would go ahead and do so, with no restrictions and no boundaries to what I want to do at my own conditions. That's what I love. And when the time comes to meet civillisation again, I know in my heart I will just have to pick up that phone and start messaging away! It's like having the best of two worlds! Well, I can understand where you are coming from on this. If they are your friends, perhapes you might want to consider just being frank and tell them as it is. No frills but just brute honesty. Friends will understand and back off giving you the space that you need. Why not try the honest approach? I discover through the hard way that honesty is still the best policy in whatever we do. Well take care and I hope that you will be able to get that personal space that you so yearn for! Happy mylottinG!!

Yeah, those days always come. The days where I want to be alone and not bothered but they seldom happen nowadays. When I was in high school, I want my sunday to always be like that. A day of peace and tranquility and just me myself and I. I usually do that because I'm deciding on what course to take on college that's why a youngster like me want to be alone but I don't get mad at people if they do talk to me...I just make the conversation short and say good bye to end the conversation immediately and spend the whole day alone... I usually end up sleeping though hahaha. Happy earning my friend!

Same here... I also want to be alone right now... I think its normal that anybody feels this that a moment in their life they want to be alone. For whatever reason, time comes that we have to be alone. In my case, I feel so tired thinking of many things... most of them are problems that I really don't know how to solve. I can't give attention to anybody right now so I rather be alone. One thing I never forgot to do when I want to be alone is to advised the people around me that I don't want to be disturb for I have something important to attend to. In that case, my intention to be alone happens without hurting anyone.

Everybody needs some time alone sometimes. Even couples need their own time and space. It seems like you are the type of person who wants to be for your friends all the time and that is very nice but remember that you owe yourself some time too. I think your friends will understand if you tell them nicely that you are just tired and need some time for yourself. I don't think they will think that you don't care about them anymore. have a good rest! Tc!^__^

I feel the same way today, too. I don't like to reply to my husband's text messages. I was trying to make a conversation with him this morning about how I feel but I think he's too busy to listen. He keeps on saying he's not feeling well, or he's in a meeting, or in a training. In the end, he didn't know what my problem really is. So now, I'm closing up from anyone. I easily get irritated to my sister, or even to my husband's messages. They don't know what's up with me and I don't want to talk to them anymore, either. But I also don't want them to think I'm being selfish or anything, too. I just want to be left alone. I guess, they just have to understand that we also need some space and be left alone. That's one thing that they should also respect if they really care for us.

It does happen, so what you do is this. You unplug your phone, you don't answer any e-mails. You take a nice bubble bath with lavander bath salts or oil. That will relax you brain and burn lavander inscence. Go outside and raise your palms to the sky and pray to the Lord to take all the mental anguish..go for a walk, go for a coffee and a glazed donut..sweets is good for the brain and the coffee will stimulate and take the tiredness out. You can tell your friends that you are taking a SPA DAY and will talk to them the next day. Send them all a e-mail saying exactly what you have written on here. Now..the question is..why are you angry? There is more going on than mental fatique.

All of at one or the other juncture of our lives prefer largely to remain lonesome.All the din and buzzle of modern life instill in us the need for serene and peaceful existence devoid of all the maddening experiences of modern existence.

Hi silver, everyone likes their own space sometimes..I do it is lovely to have just peace and quiet no-one disturbing you...there is no harm in telling your friends that you need your friends I am sure they will understand...littleowl

just tell them you need a little "you"/alone time. and that you would call them when you feel mentally refreshed. I feel that way often. hope things work out for you!

There are quite a times when we need to be all alone in life. Today is your day and some time back it was my day. Few days back I wanted to be all alone in life and now things have changed so I have come out of that stage and ready to face the world.

Yes, there are times that i wanted to be alone.. i don't want other people to see me depressed most especially my family.. i'd rather be alone than see my family affected with my present situation.. i've been sick and there times that i just wanted to give up...

yes, i need to be alone sometimes, i need to clam down when i am angry and be alone to think something through =]

I always like to be alone...... I feel peace when i am alone.... I am enjoy myself when i am alone.....

most of the time we really need to be alone, not because we really wanted to but it is because it's an innate feeling to everyone... i am positive that your friends will understand,(it might not be now but in the long run, yes!) because they will experience that themselves as well... that's what we call loving "myself" day... good day!!! c",)

Hi, if you are tired then you should get more rest... turn off your phone for over night or some period of time then you won't hear any phone ring to make you headache either. Sometimes, you are on stress and need to be alone for minutes... I use to have that feeling too but I can't be quiet alone cuz my kids need me all the time, I mean ALL THE TIME. Take a hot bath or shower, drink milk and eat your favorite meal and watch tv... I think you should be release. I hope you feel better soon... Oh, drink some Tea ok, it helps you.

Yes i too like to be alone sometimes.It too keeps my mind at peace.When i am alone sometimes at home i fell very nice.Even if i am angry i like to be alone as i take time to cool the anger.You can tell your friends that give me some time and i will speak to you later.They will accept it and speak after some time.Even in a train if i have a group i like to sit alone.

Well sometimes we really need some time to be alone in order to rest. I also do have moments like that. But I don't get to the extent of getting angry when someone calls. I just screen calls by asking our telephone operator to deny calls for me unless it comes from either my husband or son. If I am really stressed I normally go out of town with my husband to find a perfect hideaway where no one could disturb me.

yeah sometimes we really want to be alone and be quite ,,thinking ourself in our dailly life ,,when we are alone,,we can know that we need friends,,and we are ambious to our life we need alone sometimes,,indeed,, god bless you

those day will come...i feel that way most of the time. i just turn on off my phone so no one call me. i just stay in my room and not answering anybody who call me. after that i just turn to them and apologies..i feel guilty sometimes but they will understand i guess.

Here's what I do on days like that: leave my myspace and facebook status' as 'suuuper busy today! no interuptions please :)' and that usually knocks off a few people. Then the rest of the people who still bother calling me will find that my cell is off. Then I do whatever I want without interuptoions- think, read, meditate, blah blah. Then the next day I feel refreshed and go back to talking to people. If no one can ask you if 'you're mad at them' there are no reasons for explinations :)
