I'm kind of a loner that gets lonely sometimes

[Syrinx]

To a large extent, I like to be alone. Just reading or listening to music or something like that. Or working. I like to be lost in thought about something abstract, because it gets my mind off my problems. But I hate living alone. I would prefer a smart sexy friendly loving girl as a roommate, but I might settle for a sweaty drunk guy. Just for someone to talk to when we feel like it.

I take back that about the roommate. That never works. After you're 20, anyway.

1. eventually everyone realizes that other people are why we ...

are on the planet. Hockey chicks are the greatest women in the world, I married one, i recommend finding a hobby. Coaching children will give your life an uncommon perspective. Children need quality adults to guide them and support them. Try it, you may like it.....

Except for monkeyboy, he spends the day thinking about himself. Dont be monkeyboy.

2. Same here

I get...overwhelmed with the pointless drivel that comes with being with large groups of people (love my roommates and their friends, but they...annoy me a lot with their shallowness) and seek peace of mind to think. But I miss human contact; I love hugs and kisses..
Meh x(

3. Try this:

Whenever you get too lonely, just picture your ex.

I, for instance, realized that it was time for a divorce when I woke up and said to myself "I'd rather be desperately alone everyday for the rest of my life than to spend one more moment with this woman."

It's actually a rather cheery thought, if you have the right paradigm.

And to this day, if I ever feel lonely, I just think about my ex. She calls occasionally, too, which definitely helps with any need for suspension of disbelief.

4. You sound like a type 5 on the enneagram

I'm just guessing - the enneagram is the pre-cursor to most modern day psychology.

Take this test. It is somewhat long, but you may be amazed.

5. I happen to be 25 and have a roomate. Things are just

fine...I do wish I had a cute roomate though...sigh.

6. that's what friends and family are for

ring up a friend (or a sister, brother, cousin, nephew, niece etc.) and invite yourself over, or invite them over.

Maybe not, if you hate living alone. I love living alone. But I do occasionally invite people over, or invite myself out.

7. Since when does having a roomate mean

that you will get some. Sorry, but am I missing something here?

8. Dude, you're in 'bama!!

I lived there off and on for a few years 'cause daddy was doin' the Air War College in Montgomery.

It changed my perspective on the world each time I went. I used to work at the Swensons in the mall - damn - I HATED that place. When I think about it 20 years later I hate it even more.

I really do not mean to be insulting, but .....GET OUT....NOW.
