I'm one of those people who was a loner in school. I don't mind doing things alone...going to movies alone, stuff like that.

| 10. Those people are called "extroverts"... |
|
and they are excruciating except in small doses.
Personally, I need about 2 or 3 hours alone for every hour spent socialising, just to decompress. And some extroverts I can't take being around for very long at all...they suck the life out of me. Whoever came up with the idea of the "emotional vampire" was, I'm sure, an introvert surrounded by extroverts.

I just think of myself as someone who needs a lot of "alone time." I got used to doing a lot alone (movies, museums) long ago because I hate waiting for someone else to be "in the mood." I think I get more out of things sometimes going alone.

:hi: How's it going? Haven't seen you in a while.
I like to go to the movies alone, and I like to eat out alone. I get stares sometimes, because people seem to think it's a cardinal sin or a crime or something, but I don't care. It's fun. I like my own company. :)

I've always said, if you can't stand your own company why would other people want you around?
