    You could always live with someone in a big house.

    It is normal! I wish I could live alone too, I'm sick of my family and school, I'm not very talkative, mostly I dont talk at all. So yeah i wish I could live in a dessert:D

    xx Oh yeah, and no you're not selfish. And even if some people think it is, is it wrong? I mean it is your life at the end of the day, ya know? xx

    Darling, yes it is normal! It's actually very common for humans to be comfortable being alone! It's probably second nature to us. But of course any relationship that doesn't involve producing offspring isn't so widely accepted. But hey, I don't want to get married, have children, or even boyfriend, and I'm a teenager!(I have my own reasons) Maybe that'll help? Hehe xx

    Living alone is awesome.

    I'm considering taking off for a month or so and travelling. I don't even like travelling, I just want to get away from life.

    Can't afford it though. Sigh.

    It's not selfish. Though you don't give a lot of info in your post. Do you have family responsibilities? It WOULD be selfish to abandon them. But there's nothing wrong with desiring a bit of you time.

      Travelling is an awesome experience, and i know that it costs a lot but it's one of the things that you have to do before ummm dying.

        Oh I've travelled. It was a wonderful experience and I was very thankful to go, but it just doesn't excite me all that much. I love home too much. It's quieter here and I can lock the rest of the world out when it pisses me off :)

    I don't think it's selfish. I used to travel just for the sake of running away and now choose to live on my own. It's been nice not being responsible for anyone else although I'm thinking so seriously about getting pets that I'm probably moving back towards the idea of communal living.

    Do what makes you happy. As long as you're not letting anyone down, it's fine.

      I feel selfish because i have responsibility towards my family, and i'm not complaining.. It's just that i need to think about myself as well..
      You should definitely get a pet :) Yea go for it.

    I would hate living along long term. One or two weeks a year would be fine.
