I like to be on my own sometimes - it makes me feel energised. Is anyone else like that?

Question

I like spending time on my own. If I don't get enough time on my own I feel like I'm going to crack up. I wouldn't be doing anything in particular just having my own space. My boyfriend is more of a people person, but I find sometimes being with people uses up all my energy.

Answer 1

Yes totally. Time to yourself is essential, I start to get really irritable after a while if I don't get any. There are people out there though that do not like their own company. I have to say it wasn't until I grew up (I'm only 26 now by the way) that I really started to appreciate it.

Answer 2

Yep always have me time, I live at the beach and a nice long walk in the bracing scottish wind gives me time to think about life in general

Answer 3

Answer 5

Answer 6

Solitude provides ample time and space fo one to refleck, shift through events of a fast-passed day, and to allow the mind to pause and tke a break. These are, in deed, good times.

Answer 7

I FULLY UNDERSTAND!! Alcohol is quite often the only time i dont mind socialising!! You would never know that if you knew me as i'm one h**l of an actor!! PEOPLE DRAIN ME TOO!!!

Answer 8

I'm like that too. Sometimes there is so much going on in my head that I have to be left alone to my own thoughts...like you say, its energising.

Answer 9

I know where you are coming from.  My favorite alone times are in the Rockies of Colorado, in a hot bathtub and going at it solo.  What could be better?
