    Being alone is a necessity for me for certain intervals of time. I enjoy the silence and lack of interaction a lot; always have for various reasons but none of them really bad. For the most part, it allows me to recharge and meditate. Every other person in my family never understood why I enjoy being alone so much.

    I love being alone, prefer it actually. Not having to answer to anyone is a wonderful feeling.

    Except on my birthday and Christmas. Being alone on those makes me sad.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Can't stand being around people for long periods of time. The longer there are people around, the longer that I need to be alone. Living on a ship was a special form of torture.

    I do very much well being alone and not worrying about so many things and people that are a waste of time.

    Absolutely not. In fact, I think being alone for most of my childhood and teenage years has turned me into a practically useless human being.

    Not only can I cope with it, I require it. I am perfectly capable of spending extended lengths of time by myself and I actively like this state of affairs - the sole exception is Pikestaff, as I like being around her even more than I like being alone. In fact one of the main reasons I knew she was the one was when I realized that unlike every other human being I have ever met, I do not have an upper limit on how much time I can comfortably spend with her. That said, Jess came close to this when we were together and my best friend Michael is great to spend some time with.

    I am both very introverted and solitary by nature, and I have pretty severe social anxiety, which adds up into me being Maximum Hermit.

    I'm hardly ever alone because I live with family, so when I am it's great! I can sit on the toilet for as long as I want!

    Depends where I am. Somewhere familiar, like at home, I can get by just fine on my own without feeling lonely at all. In a new place, environment etc, I crave for companionshiop almost immediately.

    I love being around people and observing different energies and how they interact
    I love being in the middle of that energy with a conscious head on my shoulders (no, not the center of attention)
    but I couldnt be around a mass amount of people daily
    Im very social but I need recuperation time too
    aka I do like my alone time. I can cope with it
