how many of you guys are loners out there? I don't mean just a person who sits by them selves at lunch but someone who can stand very well on thier own. How many of you guys would consider yourselves to be individualist or you have a lot of friends but still feels as if they are somehow distant from everyone else? If you can call your self a loner tell my why and describe how you got to be that way.

I'm pretty normal then i guess^^"

I love the company of friends, but i guess i can do without them, so long as it's not for more than 3 hours of "alone time" in socialite places like tuition or school >w> or worse, paarrttiiesss.... ~(@_@)~ If they ain't there, I'd probably camatose from boredom >w>

But if it's group activities or stuff like homework or studying, I'd very much prefer to be by myself thank you very much P(T_T) too much distraction otherwise. I tend to concentrate better when other people arent around though and don't mind going to the girl's room by myself (though it's become part of the school rules for girls to always go with another friend to the loo...LOL!>w>) Also, group activities tend to end up in some amount of conflict sooner or later >w>

Also, if one was to spend the whole day with friends, would'nt it be tiring to entertain each other the whole day?? .(-c-).

All in all Yeah I can definitely say im a lone wolf

In my oppinion, I don't think lone wolf's are like that. That's just plain "loner". Wolves are animals that sometimes travel in packs, but the ones that are stronger usually prefer to hunt alone. Also, female wolves hunt food alone for their cubs. Hence, Lone Wolves are probably describing people who can handle taking care of themselves, doens'nt mind being in the company of others, but prefer being by themselves.

But that's probably only my oppinion^^"

Depends on the situation for me.

Among strangers I'm very quiet. I don't say a single word, I barely move. Among my friends I am a douche bag. I am kind of a lone wolf though. I don't normally say "Hi" unless someone says "Hi" to me and when I'm leaving from a place I don't say a word unless someone says "Bye." But even when they do say bye, I don't actually say bye back. I don't even turn around most of the time, I just stick up my hand.

Yah I would have to say im a loner. I got friends but for the most part I just don't like humans so I generally don't care to interact with them.

I def. DID consider myself a lone wolf, ever since at least 2005 when I first joined an anime forum; they became the only friends, other than my IRL ones that I grew distant from until just recently in late 2008. I didn't care back then.. but, I'm starting to change myself now. Though I didn't mind until at least mid-late 2008, when I started to push away from online friendships (to try and force myself to go IRL, if I had no one to turn to online).

But, TGA (group name me 'n some gaming/anime friends have) is starting to push me in the direction I've wanted to go in since 2008. xD

I have a strong dislike for alot of people

I guess Im this way because I feel I have been mistreated by alot of people so now I always seem to have a very high guard up, other then that Im a bit intimidating the way I dress(lots of chains, dark boots, buffalo diamond jacket etc) plus there are a lot of people that spread rumors that really dont help

just for example I have been called a nazi that had a bunch of jews and blacks in my basement and I was killing them off one by one and disposing of the bodys in a landfill thats a couple towns away

other then that Im not the one to hold back a good "f♪♫♪ you" to someones face when I think they deserve it

There are two types of people that live on this plant. Introverts and Extroverts. Extroverts are loud, love being around people and love being inside other peoples heads. Introverts are reserved, they prefer to be by them selves, in their own head. They are not necessarily shy though.

Western society encourages extrovertive behaviour and assumes that if you are not loud or outgoing that you are boring, or a "loner." Go to Asia and you will notice the opposite. Oh and by the way 60% of the gifted population are introverts. This is because they prefer to be in their own minds all day and think. I'm an introvert most of the time.

Hell yeah. In todays world if you want ANYTHING done you have to do it yourself. You can not rely on anyone else because they will either, not do it, do it wrong, take too long or complicate everything.
You can not rely on anyone, not even friends. Even the friends that say you can rely on them or they will always be there, the only person that will always be there for YOU is YOU!

I'm not sure if I am a "Lone Wolf". I like to have a few friends to keep me company threw the social times, here and there.

But personally , I want to stand on my own. I will go threw any kind of obstacles reality throws at me by myself. I don't want anybodies help when it comes to something I must personally obtain. When I was very little, the people threw out my life did not help me, reassure me, aide me, and etc me. That type of past has caused me to rely on myself. In other words, I grew up without relying on other people.That effect is still with me and will never vanish. I will not care if I choose to do something that cannot be obtained by myself. I'll find a way sooner or later. I have strong assurance in myself that I'll be okay. Even if the rode ahead of me is full of misfortunes, I can come back out alive with the wounds.

(I'm sorry if that sounded like bolstering, *laughs*. I was just setting up examples, that's all ('w') ).

I consider myself a loner. I can do very well on my own and only gather with other people if I'm really bored, not out of a need to socialize. As I see it, I have no inclination to attach myself to people, therefore if they're missing, I don't feel it.

Being alone helps me to get things done in my own way. I'm very individualist in that aspect; I need things to be the way I like them in certain aspects. I do, however, get out of my room every day and enjoy it very much. Long walks, solitary spots, peaceful environments with plenty of light and green to read all I want. If there are people, I can socialize perfectly well. But I don't actually need them.

I suppose I can be called the lone wolf of my group of friends. Yet I think they would disagree. They would probably say that I was more of those type of people who everyone gather around or is close to those people.

I was an outsider till I got to high school, then it changed around and I was hanging around with the popular kids. Of course, that boosted my confidence as my old friends who didn't see me as a friend anyway were not apart of that group.

Yes, I am a lone wolf, which is why I call myself Lonewolf69 in one of the Videogame forums.

I'm a rather quite guy who doesn't talk a lot, so you can say I am indeed introvert. Someone just said that Asian people are more introvert,... this is true in general, but you know, in a way today's young generation has changed a lot indeed, I mean, being more outrovert than before, BUT only in their circles.

You know, I am half Thai, half Indonesian, but I am from Germany. I live in Thailand for International college for three and a half years now. From what I can say here, yes, I think the young Thai people ARE more outrovert than in the past, BUT it is only in their friend circles. I mean that doesn't mean that they behave like that to everybody, especially foreigners (unless he has money, hehe <- but that's another story)...

Referring this whole thing to me, I have noticed that Thai people want to be among themselves too much. You know, when I join conversations, they hardly really talk to me or refer to me. I mean i cannot help it that my Thai is poor, but I feel their behavior is really ignorant towards me, so I AM a loner very quickly. I only have a few friends, which is better than nothing. You know, it MAKES me do my stuff automatically, task orientation of the daily things in life. Maybe the Thais think I am very serious and busy and are afraid to talk to me. Bad luck for them.

I'm not really sure what I am...when I'm together with my group of friends I get all hyper and couldn't imagine anything better than being together with them but after a few hours I get frustrated and just want to be alone (I also spent basically all my free time in my room,besides school its rare that I go out ) I also noticed (well my dad noticed actually) that when I'm alone I don't talk much,I'm always lost in my onw little world thinking,only when I'm together with other people I get loud and hyper...must be the hormones XD

Around people I don't know or am unfamiliar with, I will act as a "lone wolf". But when I'm with my friends, I'm just one of the pack hey. I like it that way.

I'm not a lone wolf, so to speak, but I do prefer to do things on my own. I mean, I have friends, just not a big group of friends. We hang out, we talk, but most of the time I prefer to be alone.

I know that am a loner. I have some friends but i am still distant to them, well except for 1 or 2 friends. But i can stand to without human contact for a long time. I've lived alone in my house for about a month without any interaction with people. The only interaction i had was when i went grocery shopping. All my friends also tell me that i am a lone wolf of the group. I think differently than most people so a lot of people don't get my ideas either so i just keep it to myself. Although sometimes when the mood strikes i go out with my friends and have some fun. I also hate parties that involve drinking and since almost all parties now a days are only about getting drunk i don't go to them. I have only gotten drunk i time in my life and that was just to see how it was.
