The Loners Thread..

[Zephrelial]

Right now I'm alone by myself at home and took up the liberty of starting a new topic in believing that it might contribute to the fact how much are we alone in our daily lives?

By that I mean excepting our colleagues or schoolmates at our social places such as school or work,Do we have company? This could also include social meeting or activities we join,our family members that we share homes,our friends,bf's,gf's none is exempted from the purpose of this thread.

The purpose is to share our social or asocial activity schedules.. Here I shall start with an example specifying my country(I thought specifying the country may help distinguish the nationalistic social relationship differences as well) .

Of course none may choose to follow the example I set below.Here is my current loner status guys:


Country,City: Turkey,Constantinople(Istanbul),major city
Horoscope: Aquarius
Status:Bachelor
Age:26
Estimated Character Type: Introverted
Share accomodation with: mother
Number of friends: 1
Number of social groups: None
GF/GFs: None
Frequency of social activities: 1-2 months a year
Leisure times(weekends,holidyas) a day approx. spent alone: 14 hours
Frequency of time spent with gfs-bfs or friends : once a week 2-3 times a month.

As I've said before noone is obliged to present the info in the samefashion,people that may have additional criteria may just add or specify or you may just give some info looks like I indicate in the paragraph below:

" Currently I live with my mother I come home at about 7p.m,don't work at weekends (saturday and sunday),although I get alone well with her she can't keep me much company,I have 1 friend,a very faithful friend and we get along pretty well as we can't see eachother everyday we talk at least 5-6 times a week via phone..

As he's an introverted person we can't make activities together,mostly once in 2 weeks..

In my work,I'm one person and work alone(own small company) pursue the obligations of my work together so exempting the temporary situation ( I have a certain partner on a specific business agreement) I am all alone in my work,so I spent my time at work alone.

I have no soul mate or gf,though I miss the company of such a person.I would like to be in a nice social group where there are nice people and that within I could somehow fit in,there are no such groups.Though I'd very much like to be part of a nice group.

As additional info I willingly gave up becoming part of such a group willingly,due to the pompueous and arrogant behaviours of a certain acquantaince of mine.

And as for now,right now I have one solid,loyal company (bottle of white wine ) and my mom's just arrived and started talking.. So my loneliness is relatively lessened ...

Somebody needs a hug

Seriously though I'm pretty much on my own.

Capricorn is my symbol, and I have several close friends. Live with Parents in a country/small neighborhood like setting. I'm also an optimist and Artist.

My siblings are out of the state doing their thing, Parents are busy most of the time, No other relatives in the area and all my friends are too long of a drive away or out of state also. Never had a relationship, or at least not a loving girl-friend relationship. currently unemployed and are in no social communities what so ever. Unless you count TWC Thankfully I got my many pets to keep me company.

That will change when I head off to college though.

A very good point indeed,I completely forgot about dear TWC here it is obvious some of us forget the concept of loneliness.So the information that we here submit is the contrast to twc,our daily life schedule-based loneliness levels...

By the way Roshak,forgive my ignorance who needs a hug,sorry couldn't get it? :hmmm:

BTW guys,if anyone is willing to take up a role of calculating the level of statistics based on the info we submit,feel free to do so..

Here is an idea:

Loner Level-

High
Mediocre
Low

Just an idea...

[Thanatos]

Yeah, I thought college would be great and all, but now I don't want to leave my friends and girlfriend!

Damn you, college!

[Roshak]

Damn you, college!

Actually in my case my close friend will be going there too. And my sister is moving in the same city as the college so I'll be able see her more often. My parents and pets will be missed though

Well, I guess I'll be seeing Rhinosaur and Setanta around that area, so it won't be too bad.

Somebody's got time...

[Niles Crane]

Somebody's got time...

I can assure you that I'm the loneliest person in my suburb.

[RZZZA]

Oh, I'm definitely a lone wolf.

People tend to like me, until I growl and bare my teeth at them. They dont understand that's just my way of saying "Hello, lovely day isn't it?". And when I rip their jugular out and stain my pearly white canines with their still-steaming blood, they don't comprehend that that's just my way of saying "My, what a lovely fragrance, is that French?"

So that's how we got into our first fight and consequent breakup. Now it all makes sense.

But Rzza just saying I'm a lone wolf doesn't suffice,I believe.In your life do you tend to get lonely? I mean suppose you are alone but you would like someone that you would like to keep you company but you can't have that...

Erm.. Am I clear enough? Or do I need to elaborate?

So yeah, I'm not too lonely, though I am on my own right now.

[RZZZA]

Well, im a lone wolf but I'm not lonely or depressed or unhappy or any of those things stereotypically associated with loners.

I'm just very independant, I have strong anti-social streaks, and I can constantly hear Boulevard of Broken Dreams playing in my head as I walk through life. I also am irresistably drawn to the moon, allergic to garlic, and have hairy palms...although...that may be something else entirely...

No,no please don't get me wrong Rzza that wasn't what I intended to ask,depression or being unhappy at times may not be related with being a loner at all.

For instance,how many friends you got?Or erm.. Do you seek friends? Things like that..

I had a lot in highschool, but a lot of people drifted off since then and I have significantly less now. I cant name a specific number because theres friends, then acquaintences who would get upset if I said they werent my friends....then theres people I see around the way, etc...

I cant say I actively seek friends, I'm the kind of guy that needs no friends at all to be honest and I'll still be perfectly content with what I do have. I'm not a person who would turn away a persons friendship because I have "too many friends and too little time" or anything...I know older and busier people will often do that to people, I wont though, if I like someone I'll make time for them.

Parties...well, I dont go to parties like you see on T.V....in teen hijinks movies...where everyone stands around in a crowded room as bad music plays and %^$# gets broken...I dont even know what technicially qualifies as a party.whats the difference between a party and a gathering?

is it a party anytime boys, girls and drugs are present or...how does it work? whats the minimum amount of people there have to be before it goes from just a gathering to a party?

Well put Rzza... I'll try to give more info by following your example...

In highschool I had literally no friends for believe it or not,(according to my point of view,a whim of fate)the highschool I attented consisted of some lame,useless,scum of the earth boys n girls.. It was a real nightmare.. So I ended up having fight with the 2/3 of people that took place in the yearbook...

Before I actively seeked for friends(know that I'm exempting twc all the way) And I struggled quite a bit for that.But most of the time I was betrayed or despised at the end.As for now I'm not actively seeking friends,but on the contrary I'm "slapping God's hand" as the old saying goes,at any opportunities both about gfs and friends.

Parties... God I love parties,or used to.. I even hosted quite a lot myself 4 years ago.. Unfortunately here in Turkey there aren't any good parties.. A society that is utterly lost its identity and character.. Useless malcontent of teenagers playing sexy games and drinking cautiously lest they fall a victim for a gossip.. (that's the occasion here,thanks to we've been converted to mindless,passive fools,who seem to indulge themselves with riches,and that'S a fatal mistake)... I was in a party recently and I must say that it was a catastrophe.. So in short no more parties for me...

About the parties in TV... A few days ago I watched a certain part of the drama "Entourage" it showed the party of Hugh Heffner,the owner of the reknowned magazine "Playboy" damn.. Just wanted to kill myself... Now that's Sodom.. (in a good way of course)

As for the question,yes usually the parties are acknowledged for such activities...

[Thanatos]

Hey, I got a question. In astrological signs, can people with similar signs be okay together?

Like two Leos, or two Scorpios, etc?

Sometimes depends on the Sign I think. Capricorns tend to get along pretty well. At least in my experience.

By the way Roshak,forgive my ignorance who needs a hug,sorry couldn't get it? :hmmm:

In Invader Zim ( A pretty good Cartoon show) on the characters named GIR says "Somebody needs a hug!" to his master when he was feeling let-down.
