Do You Have The Spirit Of A True Loner. 10 Signs You Were Born To Be A Loner. [View all]



I think I was born a loner. I was an only child, but I grew up in a neighborhood full of kids. I enjoyed playing with them, but most of all, I remember the feeling of relief I had at the end of the day. Going home, I was really looking forward to being in my own room and just that feeling of peace and quiet. I remember feeling sorry for the kids who had to share a room. It stressed me out just thinking about it, lol. Yep, I've been this way my whole life, and I can't ever remember feeling "lonely." I do enjoy going out and being with the few friends I value, but I'm just as happy at home. I was training for Covid quarantining my whole life, I guess. It really didn't bother me a bit.
