I hadn't realized how having "built-in people" really made it so I was never lonely - even though I loved having my door shut and listening to music or reading. I think you'll gradually get more friends or at least friendly acquaintances that you're really glad to do something with once in a while. Of course we often need or want to go home after work, so that will slow the process down, of course. I remember feeling that way too when I first move out of my parents’ house.

When I lived with my parents, I felt like I didn't need to around people that much. I had my computer, video games, guitar and sports. Now that I moved out on my own, I find myself very lonely. I only see my girlfriend once during the week and on the weekends. I only have one other friend..So this article hits me at home. Yeah, I live like this everyday.

I said that i didn't want to go out with some people but i'm deceived that they didn't invit me, i am still in school and sometimes people talk about parties, ect but i hate parties, i never go to them. Sometimes i am feeling lonely, but when i am with people, they are nice with me, i try my best to be friendly toobut it doesn't suit me, it is like i don't have a good "feeling" with them.

I can imagine the type of situation you mean. Being around people whose company you always enjoy, and if you do need a night off, you feel comfortable enough to just say so. That would be wonderful.

I think the best situation in life is to be surrounded with such people that you will never feel you don't want to go (but ti be asked). Then there is no place for dilemma of this sort. Hi.

Just because it came true for YOU doesn't mean that it'll come true for EVERYONE Even if it kills us? Sorry, we're not going to suffer to try to meet other people's expectations. Well, some do, unfortunately. ….Do you have any idea how often we get told that? Just because it came true for YOU doesn’t mean that it’ll come true for EVERYONE

I think many of us who talk on this site actually do a lot with friends and family, but on the other hand those of us who work a full time job have started to wish we could just go home after work and not say a word sometimes. Very true - we shouldn't waste our time *hiding* though. Thanks for your comment! Hey Matt, I’m glad you’re enjoying going out and doing lots of things!

But now in the past ~5 years I have become pretty extroverted, and I have to say, it is a lot more fun! I used to be the kid that sits at home and just enjoys being alone and living the quiet, care free life. But then when you get older, you look back and realize you have no significant memories to show for it. Sure you had the mild enjoyment of sitting around, but that becomes insignificant in your memories. Even if it kills you, just try and get out and meet people and have a lot of fun. Life is too short to hide from people and interactions!
