am i a lonewolf? NO! more like the leader of the wolf pack...lol yeah i pretty much a loner...

Its not like I like being alone, in fact I dislike it very much. I have many friends, but I always feel as I don't belong or maybe they are too different and distant away from me where I cannot reach. There was a time that I felt everything was just the way I want it, but people change and it just seems that all my friends are growing together and im going the opposite direction. I highly disagree with their actions and plans/ideas to the point that I rather stay home alone than hang with them. I'm just waiting to graduate from high school and meet new people.

Being the lone wolf is just nice alot of times. Especially games, I like to lonewolf games because its my own free time away from society and friends. I can just free myself up as whatever I want and just have fun. I don't really lonewolf in my social life though, i prefer keeping it friendly and inviting.

Yeah that'd describe me. But either way , I kind of enjoy being alone . I can actually really focus more when I'm alone rather than with my group of friends.

I have a fair number of friends, but all in all, I prefer solitude and tranquality.

Definitely a loner.

I don't have many friends (I'm probably sure the number would stay below the vicinity of my 10 fingers). I don't know why. Ever since I was small, I couldn't make friends. People would naturally avoid me—and my mom's huge on the scrubbing and grooming, so I'm pretty sure my hygiene wasn't in question. People think I'm rude (I have no idea why!), and I've recently found out that they also think I hate them. I gather (from what they've mentioned) that it's because I don't talk. Really, the reason why I don't is because I learned (somewhere around middle school) that the less that came out of my mouth, the more people wouldn't look at me as if I had grown a another limb from my forehead.

Another reason why—well, people exhaust me. Socializing, in general, exhausts me. And it's horrible, I know, but it's true. I want to make friends, I really do, but people make no sense.

I would consider myself one... I never thought about why I'm this way though. I just don't like people around me,I guess.

Well, i'm not really a loner, while most of my time i'm alone, i occasionally hang out with my friends. :D

Yes, I'm definitely what you would call a "lonewolf". I don't know when it started, but probably during my freshman year in highschool. Our high school had two lunches, and all my friends were in lunch A, but I was put into lunch B, so for a good two to three months I literally had no friend. Middle school to high school was such a dramatic change. I felt so isolated, and alone. It was the very first time I had felt this way my entire life, and I hated it at first. And ever since then, it's been building up. I keep having this need to be alone and be by myself, just because it's more comfortable. When I'm around people, I feel so uneasy and I act very awkwardly. For example, today I went out with my two good friends that I haven't seen for a good six months (because I'm in college now) and after a brief hangout, I really wanted to be alone...I really think I will always be by myself and sometimes it scares me, but on other times it makes me feel safe.

loner ? I think I'm. sometime I felt empty even with people around me, do much of the things alone and keep myself away from the peoples. sure I have friends but somehow they are just friends nothing more. And my family members are more or less self reliance so there are also not much interaction between us. sometimes my sister and brother even ignore me most of the time. so I thinks it's safe to consider myself a loner.

Yeah, that sounds a lot like me. I don't mind being around other people, but I'm quiet a lot of the time. Most of the name I have my nose in a book or I'll just be writing something. Before it was that I was fairly anti-social. But, really, now, it's more just a matter of that I'm a little shy. But also introverted. I don't always a feel a need to speak my mind or talk about my personal life.

The internet is clearly an exception for this. It's a little easier for me here than it is in real life. Haha.

I'd have to say that unfortunately I'm a loner.

I'm that way because of how I grew up. I was the extremely shy kid from a very young age and was deathly afraid of being alone or left alone for that matter. I still am to a certain extent. Then I had to become close to if not a full adult at the age of 11 because of my parents splitting up and my Dad slowly wasting away from bad relationships and never seeing my Mom again. So I had to deal with serious real life issues and never wanted anyone to come over to my house and couldn't get into any relationships in high school because I felt that it was my duty to take care of my Dad.

For college it was fairly the same. I went to classes and went home. Sure I have or had some friends but I never ever wanted them to know that I've had a hard time and always put on a mask for them.

That lifestyle continued even after I moved out because I could never get over what I felt as my responsibility to look after my Dad because I knew he was a great guy and loved all his children, but always had a way to set himself up for failure. He committed suicide a few weeks ago and now I have to wear my mask even harder to make sure no one worries about me because in the end, I still have to be the responsible one.

The fact that I can't openly share my feelings with people and have so much self doubt is why I'm a guy who is single, a virgin, and a loner at the ripe age of 24.

Guess the animosity of the internet is the only way to get some of those feelings out there.

wolf's now just remind me of winterfel and the north

Yes, I'm a lone wolf, although I don't exactly fit the op's criteria because I'm financially dependent on my family (hard to work full-time and do a grad program that doesn't offer TA-ships at the same time.) That said, I'm highly independent ... probably to a degree that most would consider to be unhealthy. I've been like this ever since I graduated high school; as an adult who has no obligation to behave otherwise, I see no value in interacting with other people unless it's to solve some problem. Heh, that probably makes me sound like a sociopath, but I think I'm like this because I have a ton of social phobias. I care a lot about what others think of me, so I minimize my contact with them. People make me uncomfortable, and prolonged social interaction tires me out, too. I don't really mind being alone (in fact I prefer it) unless I'm really depressed and don't have something to do.

This has already been pointed out by Lyricxxx, but people tend to dislike quiet people. I barely speak unless spoken to (which means almost not at all in college) and people have told me I come off as stuck-up. This struck me as funny, because thinking everyone around you needs to hear your voice and your opinion strikes me as more arrogant/stuck-up than thinking it isn't worth saying anything. But yeah ... I do have a vague desire to get to know other people, but I also don't like most of the people I meet ... and I can't really relate to them.

So yeah, perma-loner, ftw.

I generally prefer to be alone. Also, I don't go all out to make friends with every single person I meet so when the ones I do have are hanging out with another group of people, I wouldn't care enough to join in. I think it's more of a disinterest in interacting with people.

I'm extremely introverted, so yeah, I am a bit of a lone wolf. I just find it difficult make friends and let people in. I moved frequently when I was younger (I never went to same school for longer than 2 years before high school), and we always lived in places than didn't have many kids my age, so I think I just learned to get along with people in class and then spend time alone at home. Which is something that I think is fine. I think I'm just more independent than most people my age. I don't dislike people (although many can be very annoying! haha), but I just don't need others around me to feel happy and/or fulfilled. It may be a bit selfish, but I just find life to be easier when interacting with fewer people. Less drama, less confusing emotions and conversations, etc.

i am not kind of a lonner .. but i always feels alone even if my friend with me

I consider myself a lone wolf. I can work better on my own. Whenever i have problem I seldom seek help from other just surf the web for more info. However you need friends in your daily life though.
