Is it normal that i like to be alone?

So normal. Well, I'm like that anyway. You're a bit of a loner, but that's not a bad thing.

Well you might me a little lonery but that's normal

Not only is it normal, it can proove to be ideal. When I was getting my first college degree I felt the same way you describe but was afraid it was abnormal. My fear of being different led me to going out of my to be over social in my fraternity and all campus life. When I started my Masters program at the University, my body and mind were exhausted from trying to fight the natural impulse that tells us solitude is often needed. After discussing this with my thesis advisor, who has a phd in psychology, he advised me that those with the need for a good amount of time to themselves usually are the ones with a higher intelligence. Intelligence take reflection, even if you do not realize that is what you are doing, it probably is

I always prefer to be alone than around people.

People suck anyways.

Omg I am totally the same way

normal. i also like having my alone time. when people bother me when i want to be left alone i can be really annoyed.

Being alone is nice sometimes :)

hey, me too. but sometimes i ask myself whether i like being alone because i prefer the solitude or are there external factors that lead me to it. like insecurity or something. and people around me are constantly trying to tell me it's not normal and that i should get more friends. so then i ask myself, are they the ones who are insecure, scared of being normal?

I just had a counselor tell me that it's perfectly ok not to want to be around a mob of people all the time. Then she explained that extroverts actually get energy from a crowd and an introvert is worm out by the crowd. It sounds like you have your friend time and alone time well balanced. We are all different. You're fine.

It's totally normal. Friends are great. But being alone really gives you a chance to be you. That's my opinion anyway

Im the same.....

I'm similar. I love being alone as well. I like having close friends and hanging out with them but only if it's one or two ppl. I hate being in large groups. And when I do hang out with friends I wanna go after like an hour or two.
