As to your question, yes, I am pretty much alone most of the time.
Have been for awhile. It was difficult at first, but it is what it is.......... |

Oh look, another quality nsl thread.
 But seriously, get out and socialize. It's no one's fault but your own that you're alone all the time. |

I'm a loner for the most part as well. I have a small circle of friends, mainly centered around guns, and shooting, and this site believe it or not, hell, my best friends I met from this site and some other gun forums. I don't really go out and do anything, just to work, home, shoot, go to gunshows or go backpacking and camping.
Sometimes I get lonely, but for the most part, I keep myself busy, and it doesn't bother me really. I hate large crowds, and groups, just not my thing. |

I get as much social interaction here as I do at work.
I like hanging out with my dogs though, so I don't feel that alone. Lately I've been sticking to myself almost all the time I'm not at work. Haven't even been out shooting, but part of that is because the guy I usually shoot with doesn't have the same off day to go shooting anymore. |

Alone? HAHAHAHAAHA!!!!!
I get alone time precisely twice a day for 30 minutes... the drive to and from work. I can't complain though, it beats being an anti-social hermit, and dammit, kids are fun!  |

I'm on the opposite end.
I get a 5 hour window of alone time Monday afternoons in the winter when my daughter goes to her grandmas, other than that I am with family, customers, or employees pretty much 24/7 I wouldn't mind a little more of it each week. |

Are you alone, or are you lonely? There is a difference. If you're lonely, get off-line and do something. What do you like to do? |

Being in the military I never really could except for when I was in the field. I had it better than most being with only 1 other guy sometimes, up to 4 others. Then being married with kids makes that impossible. I can't say I'd want to be a loner, but I don't think it would bug me much either.

Last year I lost my wife to cancer, and since then I have been on my own. I am an immigrant to the U.S and do not have any family here.
Pretty much some weeks if it wasn't for the lady I hired to help me keep up with the house, I wouldn't see anyone at all. |

In general I can only tolerate the other humans for about 22-23 days before I find myself getting easily irritated by the little things they do. When this happens I realize that I must head back to the mountains to cleanse my mind of them. Five days is the minimum time I need to recuperate.
