Am I fine the way I am or do I need friends?


Question Posted Monday January 22 2007, 6:13 pm

For a long time I have not been the typical friend happy wild and crazy party person a lot of people are I am quite boring at times actually but I am a good friend and I can be fun with the right person doing the right things. It is just that sometimes I think that I don't want a lot of friends any way because a lot of times they can cause drama or it's just another person that knows dirt about you that you have to be reminded of everytime you look at them Right now I have associates but no close friends and sometimes I feel lonely. Is it okay to be a loner or not?

Hey. It's totally okay to be a loner but if you feel lonely than that's not healthy. Also, if you have close friends than that's great and I'm the same way. They're the people I feel most comfortable with and I'm happy I have them. If you're happy the way you are that's great and maybe if you don't have close friends now you'll find one eventually and be happy too. Just be friendly to everyone and be yourself but it doesn't mean you have to hang out with them. If they want to though, that's good too and you might make some new friends that you never knew were the same as you. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

It depends, like.. if you like doing things more by yourself or with a huge group of people. Thats kinda got be your decision.

I personally, need people. I can't do anything on my own. I need people there for me. Recently, though I don't. because, my friends suck. So, my weekends, haven't been like, fun. But, i've really enjoyed catching up on like tv shows, [ I tvo everything & watch it in my spare time] cleaning my room, downloading stuff ony my ipod, & junk like that. I like the mix. Like, I like scheduling time to be alone, but I also like hanging out with people & talking on the telephone.

If you feel a little lonely or something.. ask one of your 'associates' or whatever, to hang out or something. Just call them up. & then you won't be lonely (: & before you know it.. you'll have closer friends.

Hope I helped, kbye.

Nothing wrong with being a loner, other than the loneliness involved.

I would say that it wouldn't hurt to try to find one friend you can connect with. Some one who you can give your trust, who will listen, who will respect you and your feelings.

There is no reason you should ever feel you have to have oodles and gobs of friends to not be lonely.

A saying I once heard: It is better to have one true friend than many fake ones.

actually, i think it's somewhat okay to be a loner. i myself am not one, but i can relate to the not wanting drama & knowing secrets you want private. as long as you don't become completely anti-social and hate the world, i think it's fine that you just have accquintances.

however, i think it'd be good to find one person you really connect with. if it happens to be a boy, you could date. [i say that because i only have like two best friends, a lot of close friends, but my boyfriend is definitely the closest out of them all.] having someone there for you no matter how you are is always a good feeling.

hope i helped :]

you should get some friends, they are there for you when you are lonely, and to just have some fun! But know that its hard to get a good friend and i know this from experiece. But when you get that one good friend, your life changes, and you wont be lonely anymore. You will have someone to depend on. There are pros and cons on having friends, but i suggest you just think of the pros. Hope i helped...
