Do you hate being lonely

not really. i am the kind of person who needs people around, it keeps me in good spirit. yes, ofcourse there re times when i am moody and need some time fr myself. i then spend the time in my room and do not go out. but, otherwise i am a people person.

I dont hate being alone. It doesnt mean im alone it already means im lonely. I just love having an alone time sometimes. Although i dont get to spend my alone time often because im always at work and always around friends, if i get to have an alone time, i would cherish it. Were exactly opposite, since im around people most of the time, i cant wait to have my alone time every day. I think the only time i can be alone is when im at home from work, but then i tend to crawl in bed and get the sleep i needed. In fact i spend like 16hrs at work already for the past month.

i actually like to be alone just because i love the peace and quiet. i am an only child so i am used to it being quiet but with two teenagers, its not very quiet. if i need company, i put on the radio.

Hrm…,I sometimes like being alone.Because it can give me chance to think about myself and make myself more wise.And many thoughts come from being alone and thinking.But I can't agree more with you that several hours is OK.As we are societ person,so we want understanding rather than communicating.If we don't have this problem, maybe we have some pschological problems.

Hello Novelist! I really don't mind being alone. In one of my pastors sermons he had on dating he said. "If you can't be alone with yourself how can someone else be alone with you? if you don't like yourself how can someone else like you? There is nothing wrong being by yourself sometimes. Going to a coffee shop reading a book or watch tv. I am not saying is good to be a loner, but it's nothing wrong being alone sometimes. It helps me think and relax. It's also very difficult these days to find good and true friends. The only way you will find out who your true friends are is when they are there for you when you are in need of help. Because everybody is there for a party. But when it's time for something serious most don't want to help. :( Take care my friend and happy mylotiing! :)

Actually no,I like staying alone,reading,listening to music or surfing on line,I enjoy these time very much,so I spent most of my spare time alone.Even so,I am not lonely.

I don't exactly love being alone but it's a welcome change. Sometimes the atmosphere gets really noisy and quiet is all you may want. For instance, living in a house with small kids can be really stressing no matter how much we love the kids. When that happens, i'd give anything to be alone for at least a week. And sometimes i think that being alone saves you from more trouble than when you interact with people. However i am not saying that we avoid interacting with others just so we won't be in trouble.

I do not mind being alone so much now as when I was younger. Simple things do not bother you as much in your older years. Now being lonely is looked upon by me as having alone time. Time has a way of putting a spin on life and changing the way it's viewed. I truly am happy that I do not experience loneliness in the same way I did when I was younger because being lonely use to be a very miserable experience, the isolation I felt was near unbearable. Now I savor the moments of solitude and silence and am grateful for all the quiet moments that life so rarely brings me.

I like being alone, but not all the time. I don't like being surround by people for a very long time. It might be because I'm a bad communicator too, and having difficulties to mix with people, so I prefer to stay alone than to mix around. But of course I cannot be alone all the time. Once a while I will go and find my friend, and have some talking to them. No man is an island.

Some times I do. but most often i prefer to be on my own. some times being with some one take some precious moments of my time and i don't like being bothered at. i don't mind being lonely, it's being alone that i hate. but am lucky that i have my family with me and some of them are really people to count on....

I hate being alone. I feel secure when some one is around.Recently my husband and I split up.It was very hard for me . I was so used to him all ways being around. Now its just my 3 year old son and I. My little son is the man of the house now.Day by day it gets easier. I am starting to like being alone on the relationship level.

kind of ,I think ,I am not very good at with people,and I also think that every people need a privacy,but I hate being alone all the time,I want to talk with someone just for fun,just make me feel not lonely,and I want to make new friends by communication.

No. I love being alone. I find it difficult to be hypocrite. But even otherwise, I dont see much point in being with others. I have ample to do. And I'd like to make every minute accountable. I dont like asking how r u doing for the sake of spending few seconds to loading the file of the person in my memory, knowing fully well that the answer will be I am good. What is achieved by that? This does not mean I dont have friends. I have many. Some understand me as I am (I am lucky to have such friends). But again it does not mean that I need them to keep me happy. I am inclined to be happy even when nobody is around. And with me it has not been a passing phase - what u have referred toa s "withdrawal need". Instead, I find myself forced to be polite with others most of the time, which cannot be equated to pleasure. If levels of happiness could be scientifically measured, I would not be any less happier than all those who spend time with others. So why burn petrol going to meet another person, and cause all that green house effect.

s of course,i hate being alone.As u said it happens to be alone sometimes because of situation and our withdrawal need..but i cant stay for long time...in my loneliness my mind think about many past things those i dont want to recall..we used to think lot while v r alone...it creates fear..so i need loneliness for a short period
