I like the contrast after you went camping or did something else that involves days of continous contact and then suddenly you're completely alone walking the last 100 meters to your house.
[QUOTE=Lance99;30867835]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.[/QUOTE]
That's good though.
Living in a city or something, you'll never get to walk around alone.
Small towns are the best for this sort of thing.
After being at a big social event or going out I need a bit of alone time to wind down (going on PC or reading.)
I've rearranged my whole sleeping cycle to do just this, turns out I'm not alone.
i love hanging out with my friends. i don't have a huge circle of friends anymore, because as i've gone through high school some have become giant douche monsters, and i lost my best friend, but i still like to hang out with people, including my girlfriend who i spend probably most my time with. but at the end of the day, at some point i just want to be alone. it's not that i don't like being around people, because i do, but i also like just being able to hang out by myself, get my thoughts straight, and really think about everything.
one of my old real good friends, (who now turned into a pot dealing juggalo... and hangs out with my little brother every weekend instead), would come over, especially during the summer, and just never ever leave. he'd stay up till like 4 in the morning, sleep in till like 2 PM, and wouldn't go away. and that would drive me crazy, cause all i'd want was to be in my room alone without any noise, anyone to have to keep like entertained or anything, ahhh...
but one thing i hope my girl understands, is that when we live together, i'm gonna need a room or man-cave to myself, because as much as i love spending 90% of my day with her, eventually i want silence and peace to chill out by myself. i don't think there's anything wrong with that
when i don't see anyone or anything in my house or outside sometimes i start to think everyone's disappeared and i get scared
so i start texting my friends and see who wants to hang out
I just love to sit down for maybe half an hour or an hour a day, isolated in my room just staring into space and thinking about my problems.
It really helps me make tough decisions.
I also love staring at the stars alone, it's amazing.
I love Quite Sometimes I wake up at like 12 just to get some :wink:
I dig being alone but I really like having someone near me that I can talk to about the various things I think about.
I enjoy being alone, I like being with friends too.
I just do both v :v: v
I hate being alone at night, because I know at any second an ugly motherfucking monster will appear right in the fucking front of me.
Sometimes though It feels like I'm in a post-apocaliptic world and it feels fucking awesome.
Even the really social types of people have to be alone sometimes, it's just natural. What else could you say? People get fucking annoying, that's that.
Sometimes I leave the house at 1 AM and stroll down the highstreet, it's a really nice feeling
So yes, I do like being alone, but I also like socializing
I like the things OP described, but i don't think i could be alone forever. I've been alone for too long.
I would say everyone should try to go out at night, but that would beat the purpose :v:
I fight social anxiety so I spend a lot of time alone or on stage.
I have several friends who identify themselves as introverts. While I love having time on my own more often than spending time with my family, I'm definitely more of a sociable person versus always wanting to be on my own. It is very cathartic, though, to have times where you can just be with yourself.

Get used to it.
There's a reason I spend as much time as I can shut up in my house by myself, and it's not just because I like to watch porn.
Staying out with your friends until the sun is coming up is great.
The thing is, I live a bit further from them and use my bicycle for this stuff.
So there's 7 or 8 kilometres of half drunken bliss with my favourite music or music I just put on my mp3 because I haven't properly listened to it, discovered many great bands this way.
Does not happen that often but when it does it's awesome.

Also Miles Davis has so far been the best in my drunk quests to home.
I've discovered Jazz is way different than any other kind of music for this stuff, somehow you really open your eyes and look at stuff.
I only like to be alone after very extended periods of time with friends (say trips to another country or camps (10-20 days)). Otherwise I will jump at any activity I can that involved more people then just me. I'm a social person to the bone.

Pretty much this.
[QUOTE=NotMeh;30867211]ITT: I'm the only extravert here[/QUOTE]
you're also the only one here that can't spell extrovert
I prefer to be alone actually. Then you don't have to chauffeur to everyones wants

There's two ways to spell it, smartass.
Its good to get away once in a while especially if you've been going out the whole week. Turns a hectic week into a paradise.
I prefer to be alone, but I treasure my friends and their company.
It's nothing personal, it's that it feels more right to be alone. It just sits right in the head. You don't have to worry about their needs; Are they having a good time? If not, what can you do about it? What should I talk about? How should I act? How are they acting? What does [i]that[/i] mean?
Being social doesn't come naturally to me, so when I'm out with friends, I make a concious effort to be social and try to get it to come natural. But it doesn't, and too be honest, I don't really mind.
As much as I enjoy spending time with my friends or girlfriend, I always need a bit of time to myself afterwards. I'm not misanthropic I just need my own space from time to time.
I do this but only every once and a while. Normally the week after I've been to a party/meet-up with my friends.
