I now realize how much time I spend alone I guess I’m used to it. I just feel as though I’m afraid someone won’t like me if I open up and show them who I am though I spend so much time alone I don’t know who I am, I envy the people who are so open and vulnerable.
A word of advice to kids like me who were bullied and shut off from people is to find people that you can trust because it can take weight off your shoulders and to get out of your head every once in a while and do something you wouldn’t do to keep your mind off things

I am a loner and I know how you feel. That constant feeling that you’ll never be accepted by people for who and what you are. Its frustrating I know but we are here to listen to all your problems.
Thanks for being here to listen
If I can be of help, or if you can’t discuss it here, you can leave me a message at dx.krypto.xb [at] gmail [dot] com
You do not have to be unhappy and alone. Let me be a friend who can listen to your problems or thoughts.
🙂
thanks I’ll chat with you some time
The amount of time needed alone is dependent on the type of personality a person has: introverts and extroverts.
Yeah I know but I’ve become more and more closed off from people so much that when I spend time with them I’m afraid to open up and fear that they’ll dislike me
What’s worse? Fear of revealing your true self or time/effort wasted hiding until they eventually discover who you are?
Some people are so uncomfortable in their skin, they have to have people with them all the time. So these people who seem so comfortable, may not be.
Being alone has it’s benefits. You get to do what you want, how you want. Artists, writers and some of the greatest minds work alone. People sail around the world and climb mountains – alone. There is strength in being alone.
What are your interests? Find people who share those interests. Don’t stick with people who don’t or cannot appreciate you for who you are!
I like anything that involves creativity mostly and thanks your words have helped me a lot and I guess I’ll find people who appreciate me
