I too want to be alone once in awhile, but no man is an island. We need our family, our friends and colleagues. We even need strangers in our lives to help us grow and learn as a person.

It has it good points and it bad points. It seems when I am happy people like talking to me. When I am sad it shows on my face and people avoid me. Dogs and cats are the most social creatures on the earth I think. I wish we were more like them and the world would not seem so bad or scary to live in. Thanks Unique16

Yes, I agree with you on your point. I also love to interact more with people everywhere. Back in my high school days, I was a very little shy duckling around the corner. But when I went to college then up to now, I had boost my self-confidence. I always make sure I have alot of friends. I cannot even dare to eat alone in a crowded restaurant! I'm sure is not a loner. I love to be surrounded by people. I love to get acquainted with them. I love to get to know new people and explore them especially those good ones that sticks around. Knowing alot of people is also helpful in a way. You get to have many acquaintances or connections if you need some extra help. You get to have new ideas or topics from them. Though you just have to get to choose wisely who you have to stick with because some doesn't really have good intentions.

Yes, I do like to socialize with my peers, but there are also times where I just want to be alone. During some days, I just don't feel like going out unless have some obligation like work or school. Because of the Internet, I do not feel bored when I am home. When I am on the computer, I can still chat, read news, and play games. When I socialize, I go the movies, the mall, book stores, and electronic stores with friends. Overall, I think I do spend a lot of time more at home than with friends because of work and sometimes school. Generally, with all my responsibilities, it because harder to find time with friends.

After reading your opinion, here remids me two kinds of groups of people who are fond of hanging together. One type i may call truly-intended. they want to join in certain group carring contemptuous purpose. they usually disguise themselves deep down with veil on face. they do not want to make friends, nor to find real topic, but simly aims to seek whether there is any oppoetunity to make fortune or gain profit or even take advantage.i feel quite frustrated on those guys and really disgusting. The other type i my call my type, hhaha... because, i was the prototype of such kind. we choose getting-together for sharing hapiness, for erasing sorrow, for transmtting valuable information and for the purpose of relaxation and comfort. Let us just enjoy!

i like to be in social situations and don't mind being alone either. when i am alone, i like to read and do a great number of crafty things so i am always entertained and seldom lonely.

Being alone doesn't mean loneliness and being social doesn't mean happiness and contentment. Some people socialize but deep inside there's a feeling of emptiness. While some people find happiness in their solitude. So, it depends on each individual what they kind of life they wants and choose to live. Me- I like to socialize, but I am not a party animal. I would rather spend my time with my kids rather than staying out. I love nature and sometimes I want peace and solitude, but I am not a loner. Indeed, I am a clown and knows how to break silence with my humors.

Hey thanks for such a lovely topic. yes u are absolutely right. Man is a social animal and he is born to live with the species of his kind so that we all can work in unison and in tandem with each other. We all think that we can do everything in solitude but this is not true. We might succeed in doing so but the scourge of solitude and loneliness will always stay with us that would never make us happy. We all should learn to socialize so that we can share our experiences and knowledge among ourselves. What say?

hey, i love to be social because by that way i feel i am in the world, i feel like i know things, i feel happy even because someway or another somebody needs you and it feels wonderful when somebody miss your absence. I believe i person shouldn't stay lonlely because then he might get bored and he wont ever feel like being part of the world.
