Is it normal that i like to be alone but hate to be lonely?

i most of the time like to be alone.. so i make up excuses not to go out with friends..

but when i'm alone, i feel so lonely..

i'm an easily lonely person.. i can hang out happily with friends in the morning, and at the same night, i'm alone and i suddenly feel very lonely..

i'm also very chubby (but not in a obose, but curvy kinda way), so i prefer being alone (lazy to go out with friends), but i feel very lonely.

is it normal? i just don't want to feel lonely all the time!
is it normal?

    I feel the same way. I would rather be alone, and I make up excuses not to go out with friends. However I sometimes get depressed and feel so lonely.. its weird. At least we're not alone on this subject!

      Dude that's weird o.o. I mean, cool, but weird. How does that even work, logically speaking? =X

    Same way. Love the solitude but loathe seclusion at some points. Put yourself in positions that you usually would be in. Force yourself into the open. It helps, trust me.

    I feel the same way from time to time! That is when I force myself to be around other people even though I don't feel like being around anyone!

    I can relate to you on some levels - I like being alone and have weeks where I've been very secluded and enjoyed it! Because of this, I never know about any outings my friends have and I don't really care.
    However, I don't think I feel lonliness as you do so my advice is thus: make the effort to go out frequently with your friends! It can be a chore, I understand, but once you are out it's all good! You'll benefit from regular outings, I'm sure. It's not so bad once you're out with them =]
    I have that sort of problem with swimming - my mum wants to take us all to the swimming pool and I H-A-T-E it ALL until I acutally get there xD So I force myself to make the effort and go =]
    Also, perhaps be in more contact with your friends - text, call, msn them more! Facebook can be good (but I hate it xD).
    Good luck! And remember - you're never alone because your friends want to hang out with you! xxxxxx

    I feel the same way. I never got over the loneliness, but I still love being alone more than being with people.

    Charles M. Schulz can say this better than me:
