Yes. In fact, I love being alone. I don’t like crowds, parties or conventions, etc. I just don’t. The strange thing is I’m not anti social, and I can talk to people with no problem at all. I guess I prefer not being the center of attention. I see no point really, since I’m MGTOW and cynical the majority of people hate what I have to say. So I just hang back and keep to my self.

I have an extremely low tolerance for stupid bulls~~~ and stupid people. I deal with enough of those types at work so when I get home I’m happy to be solo and enjoying the control I have over my environment. I attribute my choice of isolation most of the time for greatly decreasing the stress in my life and contributing to my health in a positive manner.

I’m definitely an introvert but not socially awkward in any way. I just don’t like big groups of people I don’t know, period. And I f~~~ing hate having to make small talk over trivial s~~~.

Don’t let anybody try to psychoanalyze you and make you feel like something is wrong because you are happy not being around people most of the time.

Thanks, Friend. I reside in Illinois but looking to relocate to the Southwest.

I am an extrovert on tests but it really depends on who I am around. I can be around my best friends for an extended period and feel very charged. Of course we can be together and be doing different things in the same place. People who add benefit to my life and keep it real also give me a charge and good experience. I also learn better when I interact with another. It does suck in that finding friends who have found the red pill are hard to find.

There are some people who suck the life force out of you. I would defiantly prefer to be alone than around them.

Being alone was one of the best things that happens to me. Peace, quiet, tranquility and no stupid s~~~. I can relax, exercise, read, play a video game and etc. without a bitch or dumbass in my way.

I do not prefer to be alone, but I have learned to enjoy it. Solitude is incredibly valuable time. If I spend too much time in public I need time to recharge.

That said, I prefer to be around other people. I find I’m generally happier after spending quality time with friends and family.

I would not say that I like to be alone. Rather, I would say that I like to have peace, quite and solitude. It just so happens that those 3 can only be achieved by being alone.

Im single. But Im not alone or lonely. I got friends and fun in my life. Serenity.

To have people around you and feel alone would be worse then literally being alone.

I love being alone.
I am never more lonley than when I am with a group of people.
I do have Asperger Syndrome, so that does play a part as to why I am what I am.

But weddings, parties, events, etc just hold no interest to me. I could not imagine living with a women day in day out AND having children.
No offense to the fellows who have this, though obviously you are here because it is not quite what you desire it to be, but to me this is hell.

Creativity and self improvement are my cornerstones. I consider a day wasted if I do not do something creative or useful such as exercise or cleaning.

Solidarity is my friend.

However, I do like a good indepth conversation with an interesting individual for a limited amount of time sometimes.
But like many others here I find most conversations hold little interest to me, particularly in my day job where I am of very few males among women aged 50 something ( I am 27 btw). There is no depth. Just what was on tv, gossip, and diets (just talk of diets, never exercise, or actually really doing the diets).

This is why I have grown to so love this forum. Everyone on here seems so intelligent.I love it.

I laugh at women who call MGTOW a useless excuse for being celibate (not even true, plenty are not).

Once again, assuming the mighty V holds more power than it does…

Man, I love the lake/nature park near where I live, this summer Im all over there. Or visit my friends hour away from here, and enjoy the beach/sea.

PS. hehe, also, when Im 100% alone, I can play Killing Floor 2 uninterrupted.

There usually 3 steps to it.

1. I don’t like being alone (need a girlfriend, attitude).

2. Then you get used to it.

3. Then, you don’t mind it.

I am very alone.  I make my living needing nothing more than a laptop and internet connection.  All of my best friends are in technical fields and one by one they had to move away for work.  But even when they were around we did not hang out all the time. I do have family nearby and I enjoy their company, but I can easily go several days without saying a word anyone. I have basically been this way for a decade.

What I have come to understand is that loneliness is a synonym for boredom.

I always have something to do and I almost never find myself “trapped” longing for some company. I spend time the night before making a list of things I want to do the next day.  It is amazing how many tiny things there are to do and how much time they actually take. Right now I want to build a small shelf and work surface in my garage for example.  I have a desk to set up downstairs.  I have a million other things much more involved and important to do as well.  There really are too few hours in a day.

So when people ask me “aren’t you lonely?”, I just tell them “well I’m certainly not bored, if that’s what you mean”.

Great way to explain it!

I love being alone, and the more I observe about society, the more I love it.  I can amuse myself more with abstract thoughts and concepts, and as well can engross myself with better humor than I ever get from being social.

I find after spending time out with mangina friends, who I try to avoid actually, when I get home I need to check-in to a Mgtow forum or video to remove the mental pollution I received by being around these people.

Mgtow is my prescription after spending too much time in society. It brings me peace.

Because in order to be able to think, you have to risk being offensive.

I don’t like being alone, but then again, being around people stresses me out to a degree. it’s rare that I find someone who can talk about science and philosophy and such, and I’m not into sports or drinking or drugs or popular tv shows as I don’t even own a TV. People don’t seem to go out of there way to get to know me either. I’m pretty much a ghost when I leave the house, so…

I like being alone, I also like other people with similar interests. If you can hang out with a bunch of attractive ladies in public you can make even Alpha males jealous. Those pricks would’ve beaten me (And other Omegas.) up at school to prove their toughness to impress any girl. Nothing says. “I’m a tough guy.” like pushing around some short nerd who weighs 50 kgs, who some girl begs for their homework. Status isn’t just for women, you don’t have to sleep with them in fact it’s preferable you don’t. But you can get back at those morons by being surrounded by chicks and telling them that stupid Alpha is a closet gay! Taking a photo and putting their profile of a gay dating site works wonders!

I haven’t asked myself this question, really, but I think I must love it. I live in a city of millions so I’m not “alone” and actually have to MAKE time to get away from others. I’m always ending interactions first. I want to GET OUT the dentist chair…. I visited my accountant and told him to hurry so I could LEAVE….

The last time a girlfriend fell into my lap, within two weeks, I remember wanting to be rid of her. I can’t explain it any other way,… but she was a “nuissance”. Just in my way…and I even remember we were walking, and she was walking much too close to me. Like almost veering into my lane. It was annoying and I told her to stop it.

So I guess I do like it.

Don’t really think about it that much, I will enjoy going to a movie with friends … or even being the only person at the theatre on a Monday night.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

I think Robin Williams said something like this but I’ll just put it in my own words.

To me being alone isn’t being devoid of any people around you, it’s being in a crowd of people and not a single one being aware that you are even there or even exist.

The Children of Doom... Doom's Children. They told my lord the way to the Mountain of Power. They told him to throw down his sword and return to the Earth... Ha! Time enough for the Earth in the grave.

I definitely feel more comfortable with myself than with other people. With myself, the time is for me, and I can do everything in my power to finely tune it for my needs. Want to play a single-player video game? Choose from a library of games tuned exactly to my tastes. Want to drink? Here’s the liquor cabinet, containing the liquor that I specifically like, and I know that it was acquired by the cheapest means possible. Want to read? Tolstoy or Nabokov, both are great! Want to watch an obscure YouTube TV series that only you like . . . etc.

 

Though I would be lying if I said being alone all the time is the way to go. I wish I could be alone most of the time, and be able to invite a woman over occasionally for sexy times and for someone to hold.

 

I will say this though: when I did finally get a girlfriend, although I did love her, I do remember the times when I was with her: “When can I have my alone time again?”

 

Maybe I’m just perpetually unsatisfied.

A few ears ago my answer would be a lot different. Now I love being alone. Like myself stated above, once you have things to do and not be bored it’s not a big deal. I prefer my solitude now that I have found a few hobbies to mess around with.

[Knights Templar RisingParticipant 5127]

Men inherently like alone time, or “cave time” if you prefer.  We evolved to be hunters and warriors, regardless of what Feminazis want you to believe – if we didn’t evolve that way the women would all starve or get stolen.  Think about it this way, whether hunting or battle, we went in full speed – and then rested up.  Or in some cases, lay low and quiet until the animal or enemy shows itself.  This is why those of us who hunt or fish, can tell you there is nothing more satisfying than sitting there observing your prey or nature itself.  This is why many men can be content for long periods of time, without the fabricated drama that women feed on.

One female phrase that never stops how long you have been together, and no matter how many places you have taken her: “We never go anywhere, or do anything!”

Sovereignty above all else.
