I enjoy spending time with my family, friends, etc but I also enjoy having alone time. I love to sit in front of the big window I have in my bedroom and write whatever I'm thinking about. Late at night, when I lie in bed, I like to pretend that I'm the only person on Earth. It's a melancholic, yet cathartic feeling. It usually last only a few seconds, maybe a fleeting minute before I'm ripped from fantasy by an idiot's yelling or a car's honking. Which only serves to further cement my misanthropy!
Also, I've been out sometimes in the early hours of the morning just wondering the streets. The eery silence combined with walking the middle of the road knowing no cars are coming and nobody is watching you gives me an eerie, disconnected, post-zombie apocalypse feel. It's pretty surreal, really. I do it quite a lot, haven't been raped thus far!
Anyone else enjoy being alone as much as I do? Also, I'm a massive loner. :v:
Yes, I enjoy having no friends.
I enjoy being by myself, but my parents always thing I have problems with being near people.
I just [i]like[/i] being on my own goddamnit, why don't you understand...
I also enjoy doing those things as well, but I do them with friends.
Asperger thread initiate.

That defeats the point of being forever alone?
I haven't left my house yet this summer, and it's been a good month or so. It's my parents that make it awkward, they always think i'm in here all sad and alone when my hobby is going on the computer. I enjoy it so much I do it all of the time.
If you consider talking over skype with friends that i've known for years are "real" friends, then boy am I popular. :v:
[QUOTE=YoMother;30866958]I need to recharge after social gatherings, I can't go a week without being alone for at least 8 hours.[/QUOTE]
This. I enjoy being around friends and such, but I eventually reach a point where I just want to be on my own for a little bit.
Actually, I hate it. I'm normaly all summer by myself, only on the weekend I meet my friends and such. I love being around people, even though I'm not the biggest speaker.
I enjoy being alone with nature. Sitting in the trees at sunset, floating in the sea at sunrise. These moments are when i really feel at peace but nowadays these moments are hard to come by as simply leaving the house at such hours means the riot police in the area have a reason to arrest you. That's watcha get for incomplete revolutions :(
i am always alone
Sweet, sweet solitude

I do this occasionally, it is amazing.
First chance I get, I'm moving to the fucking moon. I've seen enough of what people do and what people like and what people think to know that I don't want any part of it.
I enjoy meditation, I can sustain that state of consciousness for hours.
My uncle interrupts me a lot to ask me for a cigarette, though.

I love going out by myself at night, but around my area I'd probably be stabbed or mugged.

Didn't know that meditation and cigarettes went hand in hand.

My uncle, who lives on the same street, smokes and when he doesn't have any on him he asks me.

You say that like you're proud of it. Introverts and Extroverts can both socialize to the same degree and have just as successful relationships with family, friends, and lovers. The only difference is Introverts need a bit of recharging time after such social excursions, and Extroverts don't. There are varying degrees of Introversion and Extroversion, as well.
The more you know.
I could never get some god damn piece until my bowels problems now no one bother me that changed my live for the better.

Okay. =]
I'm just waiting for generic "alpha" male #8345 to come in here and bitch at everyone while proclaiming how popular he is on an internet forum. There's ALWAYS one of THOSE guys.
i think all people are extroverted and introverted to some degrees
some days i'll wake up and say "HELLO WORLD" and jump into my coat and trousers and strike conversations and invite my friends and have a party and bla bla bla
other days i'll just lie in my bed, mumble angrily at humans and listen to joanna newsom... and insult people on webforums.
It's nice to have peace and quiet, but it's not good to be alone completely.
Take my Chemistry teacher for example. On the exterior he seems like one of the happiest people
you will ever meet, constantly smiling, humming tunes, and saying hello to everyone. But on the inside
he is completely and utterly lonely. He has no family and barely any friends. I've spoken to him before
on multiple occasions and he is properly depressed. On Christmas day (It broke my heart to find this out)
he comes into school because he has no family to spend his Christmas with
and it only makes him more depressed so he tries to occupy himself
with other things to distract from his loneliness.
Sorry I just felt it was relevant :unsmith:
I enjoy being alone, especially over the summer after I spend a week with my friends camping.

That's not what an alpha male is.

Bipolar disorder?
I've been out all day/night doing work/partying for the past 2 weeks. Someone asked if i wanted to do something yesterday night as well but i didn't, just to have some time to myself.
You need some alone time, keeps us sane.
A bit of both. It's nice to go walk by the river near me by myself, have a joint and it really allows you to truly relax, in an environment with a really nice view and no one to bother you. Then again i had no friends for like 3 years which lead to me going through depression which really wasn't nice, i like being with friends but i'm quite solitude so yeah i don't mind being by myself as long as its not for long periods of time.
Yeah, those walks in the middle of the night are awesome. I love them! Too bad I live in a very small twon, so there aren't many places to go here, just round the block.
Being alone can be pretty nice at times, just reading a bit, watching some TV, etc.
However, when I'm alone for a bit longer, I start missing having people to talk to.
