I've not really felt lonely because I've been around my friends & family and been active in sports. Since you're used to being alone and it's okay for you -- I can't see it being abnormal. I hope at some point you'll find ways to mingle with others and develop strong relationships that will crack your shell so you can be involved than alone.

yea me too, but at least we have time to think about our life, and what we want to be.

Yes, I've felt lonely before. It's a feeling of wanting to be with a friend and just sit and laugh and have good times with. I love spending time with friends and being able to do something special together. It's a great feeling. I used to think of how cool it was to be different from everyone, who were so busy rambling on about pointless stuff when I was sitting in the corner thinking about more important things.

And it's normal to be more introverted. I used to (and still do) love being alone to ponder my thoughts and do my own thing. I used to love this when I was 13-15, but there were times when it just got repetitive and it was getting harder to find subjects that I hadn't thought about.

Eventually, I made so many friends that I became more social, much funnier, and a more likable guy. People invited me places and wanted to hang out with me. The feeling of being accepted and appreciated is awesome. And I love giving others that feeling. I like to isolate myself from time to time to think on my own, but I've flip-flopped in the past few years from total introvert to somewhat of an extrovert. I found my sense of humor, which has led to many people being happy, which made me happy.

Socializing is a part of growing up and being an adult, and you just kind of grow out of isolating yourself. There becomes a point when you really just have to learn and be comfortable with talking to other people and even strangers, and it's an important lesson to learn for your future.

I don't think it's weird at all that you like to be alone. For me though, i feel lonely and i hate it, so im gonna try to be less shy and more outgoing this school year:)

It's normal to feel that way. People feel lonely; it happens. Everyone feels that way at some point in their life. I feel that way because I don't have any friends in real life. I'm not even the one to think I could have any, as I'm shy and independent. I'm always the one to work alone. The words I dread most: "Get with a partner." I shiver inside, and just sit there. So yes, I do feel that way.

I've felt lonely sometimes. But i just distract myself to get over it.

Of course it's normal. Different people like different things. Haha.

Being lonely is completely normal during life. There are times where you have a lot of friends and sometimes when you don't have many.

I've never had too many friends seeing that I spend most of my time online now days D:

I like being alone and I rarely feel lonely at all. I feel lonely a little more during school season 'cause I'm around people who have groups and I only have small circle of friends. Most of the time, no.

On the friends side of things I have a good amount of friends so no I don't feel lonely

Relationships on the other hand... yeah. I want to just be able to have someone special to hug and be with and stuff, to constantly be talking to and all that stuff... so yeah definitely lonely in the relationship side

I am not lonely, I just prefer being alone. I suppose it is because I am an introvert in nature but I would rather spend my day by myself than with a group of people. And dating wise, I could really care less whether I have a girlfriend or not, if I get one, great. If not, I am not losing sleep over it.

The funny thing is I'm more lonely when I'm around people then when I'm alone. Usually because nobody really goes out of there way to talk to me. I'm used to it though.

I was an only child for 10 years and got used to being alone, so I actually do not mind.

I'm used to being alone, but when I start thinking about my crush, that's when it hurts

I always feel lonely...well maybe not always but most of the time. I think it's normal to not be lonely, if you have tons of good friends....

I love being alone. I enjoy it. At school, I would rather sit by myself than with a big group of friends. Its just personal preference, you're not weird.

I am sometimes and I don't like it. I'm one of those people who needs a laugh from a friend. During the Summer, I never go anywhere so I'm usually pretty lonely. What do ya know? It's Summer break.
