Loner or Introvert or Plain Weird

i feel the same way to, but if you always do that., like wanting to be alone, or creating your "own world" it'll make you feel bad about yourself that will lead to self pity, or sometimes, it will put your confidence down.. there will be time that you want to be alone, but try to mingle people too.. meet new people and socialize.. :D

No, you are not the only one here…at least I am exactly similar in my views. Most people I come across are either spreading malicious gossip, or are either too pretentious, or wishing you good when they are actually wishing you bad, are not really interested in what you are saying or are into such groups of extrovert extremes that they are just not my type. Catching up with friends for me can be something as mundane as a phone call once in a while… I really don’t have much to say on most occasions. However, with people I really gel with, I enjoy every moment we all spend together. So don’t bother if people are calling you a loner or weird…its just that, you can keep yourself occupied with just a few selected people and that’s the way it should be.

I don't think it's bad....I live alone and have gotten so used to it that I really enjoy my own company! LOL...I do alot of writing and crafts though so I find things to enjoy. I do however go out on family things...and have friends but I am not a party animal by any means.

Hello You have not mentioned the reason behind, if you have a family, parents or inlaws, and a job, where is the time to feel this 'aloneness'? You need to get out of this, mix with people around, play and enjoy life to the fullest, god bless you.. Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers. Professor

You're not alone...There's millions of people just like you. I also don't fit well in the crowd. Well it's not that I can't bond or something like that, i bond well, but the problem is I tried too hard to get bond. Like I try to think what topic should I say, what's the thing that my friend will find it amusing to say or do,etc. So I get too tired for trying .

There's nothing wrong with being an introvert or preferring not to hang out with crowds. I'm an introvert and I do enjoy talking to people one on one, but hate parties and crowds. I doubt that many people are so introverted that they want to be completely alone all the time. That really isn't too healthy. But I can see from some of the responses here that there's a lot of ignorance about people who just enjoy being alone part of the time, or even a lot of the time. Maybe it's more weird to have to depend on other people to keep you from being bored, than it is to be able to live with just yourself and enjoy things that don't require company.

Hello Gracee, sometimes it's the easiest way to get out of the situation where you get into trouble. but then again, where is the fun of being alone. people would call loners, or introverts weird because they are never given a chance to at least to talk to others.and that's because they are always picked on or bullied on. such acts prevents them being considered social conversations. thus, they are laughed when ever a bully tries to humiliate them.

I sometimes find myself keeping distance from the crowd.., I don't think it's weird.., It's just that I choose the crowd where I want to blend in.., so I stay away from people who love to gossip,.., who are into vices.., party life and any other bad influences.., i prefer to be off alone than mingle with a group who are goint to bring me nothing good..=)
