I'd love to just go backpacking alone for weeks on end, just explore urban and nature environments. Not being dependent on anyone and just going where I please, and staying (alone) where I please. It calms me down for not only that time, but for months on end. It's a true stress reliever.
Sorry I have friends, I can't be alone forever like you OP.
[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;30872182]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.[/QUOTE]
What, watching porn is not a good enough excuse?
Whenever I'm pissed off with people, or human nature, or my own failed interaction with people, I always imagine being the last person alive on the planet, calms me down, even though I know it'd be hell on earth after a few weeks/months.
[QUOTE=The Blue Scotti;30871261]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.[/QUOTE]
This, I fucking scream like a 5 year old girl when I see my reflection in the window or mirror. Also, lights on permanently, not giving a fuck about polar bears.
[QUOTE=Tolocore;30867031]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 :([/QUOTE]
I live in a city where I could do this at 9pm. Walking the empty streets and outskirts of my city after coming from a bar, while eating some fast food is so fucking depressing and scary, especially during the winter, when I can cross the dark icy lake. It feels like you've walked for eternity when you arrive at home.
I like being alone better than being with people cause I tend to argue, or end up in a dead end conversation when I talk to people. I don't have very good communication skills to begin with
[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;30871950]I think that balance is always the key. You can't drag yourself out of social circles, but it's great to be alone now and then, too.[/QUOTE]
Agreed. I love being with my mates/family/girlfriend, but I find my own company to be just as good. It's about the balance for me too.
That said, I think it's important that you can enjoy being by yourself, because you're kinda stuck with yourself. :p
I enjoy the the time I have to myself. It lets me think of things I would not otherwise not be able to because people of my age group usually don't care about movies as passionately as I do. They would rather smoke and drink then do something productive.
If I'm alone and don't feel like going on the internet,playing video games or just want to relax I'll usually read or draw.
What you say is true. Being alone is cool.
For a few hours.
But then, when your parents are working pretty much day and night, your friends are on vacation, and your girlfriend is home sick and [i]her[/i] parents don't allow visitors...
Things get pretty fucking boring and lonely...
It's really weird being alone out in the day. I was biking to the local school to play tennis on their courts, there wasn't a single car. It was like 6 ish in the evening, it was weird as hell.
This just in:
All FPers are introverts and/or spergs.
But I think it would be boring as fuck to live alone, as much as my family might bug me, I would be so bored alone.
[QUOTE=Carand;30866966]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]
There are times when I say to myself "I really need to find a good hobby or something" when I realize how many hours of my life go into being on the computer, but then I realize that my hobby IS going on the computer. I think it's best to keep doing what I enjoy instead of forcing myself to be interested in some random hobby.
I spend most of my days here in front of the computer.
I don't really like being with a lot of people at all, so when I rarely do meet friends, it's only with one other person or sometimes two others, but nothing more than that.
I just get really drained when I'm with more than one other person that's all.
I don't think people realize that being alone when you want to be is fine and all, and I understand it completely, but having the choice changes everything.
[QUOTE=Capn'Underpants;30873958]Sorry I have friends, I can't be alone forever like you OP.[/QUOTE]
I enjoy being by myself sometimes when I've just overall had enough of PEOPLE. But as a whole, not at all.

Lol, no.
It's much more rewarding to actually do something productive. Browsing forums is the least productive thing you can ever do.
I go out of my way to make myself be productive on my days off, it's rewarding and refreshing. My room is clean, I've made a few electronics projects, been on some bike rides, written some music, all kinds of stuff I wouldn't do if I stayed on here and posted all day.

I second that a lot. Anybody would be a lot happier of a person if they aimed to use all of their time productively than posting away on a forum.
It almost seems like I'm on a yearly cycle. For instance, last summer I was constantly hanging out with friends and doing stuff. This summer I'm rarely doing such activities.
I heavily enjoy being with good friends. I usually don't like a lot of alone time, but it's definitely nice to just be completely alone every once in a while.
But I prefer 1 on 1 time with friends, rather than being in groups of like 4-8 friends. So much more personal!
I like being with friends and alone, but I much prefer being alone. I think the best thing was walking home alone from a mid term, it was fairly early out and it was snowing pretty heavy. The peacefulness and the snow everywhere was great, quite beautiful looking too
I was always dumbfounded how the day after some of my friends meet someone, they are immediately over at their house.
Alone time is a vital time of my day..I get really irritable if I don't have at least 2-4 hours of alone time a day. Usually its in late hours of the night at the end of the day. I've also found that alone time usually goes hand in hand with time on the computer. Hmmm.
I enjoyed being alone. Then I met someone who showed me how much better it is to be with other people, now that that's done I'm back to being alone, this time around I realize how awful it is.
Alone in forests, creepy but awesome.. I do it all the time
At school when I'm at lunch, I like to think about level design and whatnot, though I usually have a serious face on when I think.
All the chicks think I'm lonely and come over :smug:

And then you get eaten by bears/wolves
I have friends but I prefer being alone
