Hello,
I am 29 years old, single, male who lives by myself. I have a good
job and college education.

The problem is that I am very happy to be by myself 90% of the time.
When I am by myself (where there is no one around me)I am happy, sleep
better, more calm and etc. I almost feel like i am high from some kind
of drug.
I am perfectly happy to spend time with others but no more than 2
hours a day and the rest of it by myself.

Unfortuantley, most my friends and my relatives love to spend too much
time with me. They would want to take me to a trip,bars, dinner and
etc but I just rather be home by myself. It is not like I don't enjoy
spending time with these people but I just enjoy more spending time
by myself.

Sometimes, I feel like I don't want to be in realtionship because I am
afraid that I won't be happy in the long run. Even when I am date and
etc, I am ready to go back to my house and be happy.

Is this normal?Anyone in the same situation?

x-no-archive: yes

you have a point in that many who read this group prefer their own
company. however, i am more than 15 years older than you are, and i
have found that, if you resist company in order to carve out private
time, you wind up with far less company than even you want.

hi
i do like time to be by myself.....i call it me time. which right now
is few and far between. but i couldn't do it day in and day out. i
enjoy being around people and talking. some people do prefer to be
alone 90% of their time and that is great if that is what they want.
so to say you are normal or un normal can't answer that for you, you
just do what is best for you~Lynda

when i first posted to this group i didn't know it had to go thru a
moderator, other discussion groups i post to do not go thru these steps.
why would you want someone to burn your house down, that is sad because
let me tell you something my x husband went crazy and burnt our house
down, thank God my children, animals and i weren't there. i lost alot
of things that can never be replaced, but i didn't claim insurance only
reason if i did claim it he would of been sent to prison, and i didn't
want to see that happen (then) now i have different feelings but hind
sight is 20-20 as they say.
hopefully you are talking to a professional about all the feelings you
are having if you aren't you really should.
