Other than dating, i have no interest in other human beings.

In my life, other than the sole exception of my desire for a girlfriend, I am absolutely indifferent to other people. I don't have friends, but I'm not a lonely person, nor am I shy or inhibited. It's more like I lack a "social drive"; I don't experience a need to "belong".

Often for purpose of work and other functional areas of life, I have to feign an interest in people and put on the impression of a more gregarious person. If I didn't have to work, I think I'd pretty much be a 24/7 hermit.

I should note that I didn't have any friends while growing up, so I've really only ever been a loner. Yet, most people in this predicament often are seriously lonely or otherwise have major emotional problems, but this seems to be absent from me.

Is It Normal?

    Since it doesn't bother you, and it's of no bother to others, i say it's perfectly fine.
    In fact, i'd dare say it would be good if more solitary people were like you.

    I should imagine that it will be difficult for you to meet a girl.

    I like to be alone too. I have to force myself to go out and do things. Having a relationship is hard too though because I just want to be alone with that person for as long as possible. We don't have to do anything and I would be fine. But most people don't like that, they like to go out and do social things.
