Why do I always want to be alone?
I have no idea why I'm acting this way, and I just need some help to understand why i'm acting this way and how to fix it.
I just always want to be alone. I'll be eating dinner with family and i just can't wait until dinner is over so I can go to my room and be alone. I'll sit in bed and watch tv and go on my laptop. Or some of my friends will ask me to hang out but sometimes I'll say i can't, because i'd rather do things alone like go shopping alone. For prom, I didn't really know the people in my group but they asked me if I wanted to get ready with them (do makeup and hair together) but I said no because i'd rather do it alone.
I guess it makes me happy that i can do things alone, but at the same time it kind of confuses me.. why can't I enjoy being around other people?? It just frustrates me because i think that is the main reason why I don't have many friends. I'm trying to change this but I don't know where to start. Help?

Maybe give some free advice about: Mental health?
First off, are you feeling sad or depressed? If not, there's nothing wrong with the want to be alone! Some people just prefer the quietness of doing their own thing to big groups of friends and going out. Perhaps you are what they call a homebody.
However, since you are still young, be sure to take the time every once in a while to go out with your friends. It is important to keep your friendships and relationships with family members. Someday, you might not want to be alone so much, so maintain the relationships in your life. Take time to ask your friends how they are doing, as well as your family.
If you are feeling ambitious, perhaps try to meet some new people at school or your job (if you work). Sometimes, it can be refreshing to meet a new person, and step out of your comfort zone a little bit. Hope I helped!

try to familiarize yourself with other people! get close to one friend and stay with that friend. maybe if your not comfortable around people then they aren't really a good friend. surround yourself with your friends and family members that you KNOW you can have fun with and trust. its perfectly normal to want to be by yourself now and again, but don't make it an everyday thing, and do not lie to anyone. being more open will help make you more friends.
i feel this way too sometimes. instead of going out with the girls or even hanging out with the guys, i would rather sit at home and watch a marathon of america's next top model or kardashians. some days thats the only thing i DONT want to do. it just depends on what mood i'm in.
hope i helped:) answer one of my questions please!
