I like being alone

Yeah, I liked being (and still do for the most part) alone before I started nofap, but since I've started I get these periods where I crave intimacy. It's just natural when you don't have it I assume, but still, that's one thing about nofap I'm not a fan of. I don't like being near desperate.

 

You might be asexual.

 

People often mistake the words being alone and feeling lonely. Being alone is totally cool, as an introverted person I totally agree with you and I enjoy my company.

 

I don't think being alone is a bad thing, its probably very healthy that you can handle being alone, I know a few people that go crazy if they're alone. But at the same time, it's not bad as long as you aren't hurting other people while you're doing it. I had a phase where my friends thought I was rejecting them because I wanted some alone time. It's not personal but as an introvert you just need space ya know? But it's important you do this tactfully and not like an asshole way I did lol. We got over it but I probably could've approached/handled it in a better way lol.

 

Sometimes it's good to. The best couples are the ones where everyone gets his alone-time amount

 

Do what makes you happy OP. Life your life for yourself, not for anyone else.

 

I've spent this day by myself thus far. I've been working on projects and playing some games while listing to my favorite music.

I get along just fine with myself. Some people can't do this due to their temperament but you're definitely not a anomaly.

being alone is not a good nor a bad one....it depends upon one how she/he utilize or waste that much alone time.One can do meditation in alone while another one can do masturbation...i hope any one agree with me

 

it is up to you

 

Depends OP of what kind of loneliness you talk about. I have a wannaBeAlone roomate introvert who sits all day on the living room coach, watching movies, doing garbage, not washing after himself, drinks milk and puts the empty box back in the fridge, lazy piece of shit I can say. If its this kind of loneliness, then its not cool at all.

 

Interesting topic. The girl I liked said to me that she wanted to be alone as well. I guess she was probably lying because she didnt like me or she is in the same mindset as you.

I feel that just as one can have multiple wifes, swingers or even open relationships, being alone is actually a state of the art form of saying fuck you to peer pressure / society in general. Its cool.
Do you remember when you were a child and you simply was fine with the idea of being by yourself?
The moment we are presented with the idea of marriage and family we tend to seek only by looking at the bright side of the grass. But just as any choice in our life, we need to handle something to get another, and in relationships, you do handle away a part of your freedom and emotional health / time. I do believe that we as humans have a lot more to learn, and there may be a lot of things that a celibate can do, specially with the amount of free time you'll have to yourself.

I'd advise you to at least try any relationship of some kind first, so you can see if that definitely isnt your "thing" at all. Personaly, Its by the fact of me saying I can do things alone that a lot of people end up finding me attractive, because it demonstrates a lot of confidence (internal aligment of values) to make such a decision. You probably isnt needy or may feel the need of intimacy some times, but that is made by your hormones.

Now, you may also stay aware if that isnt some form of self justification for you to avoid getting hurt by relationships or devoting to another person, because that happens eventually. We all have our ups and downs when trying to seek that perfect relationship. Part of the learning process.

 

I'm definitely guilty of justifying being alone, most of the time in order to avoid the awkwardness of approaching someone I find attractive. I know it's ridiculous but I've spent a good ten years without approaching, dating, having a relationship and being intimate with a woman.

Because I try my very best to be polite to everyone I work with and serve, I have been able to work my way up into talking to incredibly attractive women. This is a double edged sword because I'm not having small talk because I'm trying to pick them up, I'm selling them a product, that's not me.

That's just a little bit of a perspective of where I'm at.

In everything we do there has to be an ultimate goal, whether in marriage, relationships or even solitude. You have to ask yourself what is your ultimate goal. If you don't first make that clear, whatever path you choose will make you suffer.

With every journey there has to be a destination.

 

I feel the same way I can’t imagine being with a soulmate and I am used to it by now
