I've always been kind of a loner. I don't use to mind, but now it's getting to me. I am so socially-handicapped!

Me too. So's my Mom. I have 1 really good friend, that's pretty much it. There's people that I suppose I could call my friends-but they know nothing about me.

I seem to be alright at meeting people-when it comes to calling them and asking them if they want to do_____...I just -freeze. It's so uncomfortable, that I never end up contacting them.

I'm a little like that too I guess...I wait for others to call me, most of the time. I will call people, but because of how I was raised, I'm ok with being alone. I can always watch a movie or something!!

[lightning_king2000]

I dont mind being alone at all personally. I prefer being alone cause nobody can bother me and I can just go where I want and do what I want without anyone slowing me down. I dont know, I just kind of got used to it .

could be a number of reasons.
the acne is having an emotional toll on you.
being a minority is always a difficult thing to cope with.
who knows what the exact reason why you are a loner.
my advice is to gain some confidence or else you'll never ever have a bf or any friends.

Am pretty much of a loner to. Not bothering me to much same thing as someone said here before. You can go wherever you wanna go and do whatever you wanna do.

You can be anything you want, a loner or not, as long as you don't kid yourself about the price you pay for the lack of social interaction and closeness.

Osho says that at the moment of death, when your life passes before your eyes, that if you have not lived life fully and shared love, then you will experience an overwhelming sense of remorse and that will be your hell. You'll suddenly realize how much of your life you've squandered and will beg for another chance. Few get another chance; most do not. Don't let acne rob you of your life. Wake the fuck up.

peace

I've always been a loner. I like it and actually prefer my own company to that of others unless I really, really like them. Even then, it has to be in small doses. I'm not this way because of acne, i'm just this way because that's who I am and I don't think there's anything wrong with it even though some people make you feel guilty. I wouldn't mind having a boyfriend though...

Yah. I dont like hanging out in large groups or nothing either. Usually I'm on my own or wit couple of ppl. Thats the way I like it.

But if its getting to ya, then definitely the confidence thing will help. I use to have the mentality that I can do anything on my own but I learnt its so much easier wit the help of other ppl n that u can achieve a lot more things. definitely something u have to work on.

I'm "fine" on my own, I can entertain myself. However, I'm really looking for someone to love and love me. Friendship is nice and all, but I don't think its close enough for me, every friend I've ever had was too distant, there was some kind of barrier. I get this with guys anyways, I've never really had a girl that was my friend offline. But if I never find anyone, I guess I'll still be okay on my own.

[KaBooMx]

I feel that way too .. but i don't think it has anything to do with acne... i just don't have anything in common...

[nextbigthing]

I wouldn't say I'm loner. I go through periods of staying in for weeks (most prob to do with college work) and then going out quite a lot. Depends the way I feel, sometimes it's nice to just be on your own and shut yourself off and have no one bother you...

[Polka]

i like doing lonely things like walking, reading and listening to music on my own

Maybe i like it because when i am alone i don't have to worry about other people. its a sad thought.

[imatoad]

i wonder of being a loner causes acne because im a loner too. dont mean to be. im not a depressed person or anything. i just like being a mole!

[bluelight]

Being alone for too long makes me think whether there is something wrong with me.

[MartinaL]

There is nothing wrong with you...however, after a while...like you said it will get to you...but i used to do the SAME thing..i used to come home from school, and go to my room...and do my thing

...but i always wanted to be out there...but i didnt want them to see my face without makeup AND I HATE MAKEUP

but now i changed it up a LITTLE...i come home..then i head over to the park and go running in the outdoors...i like nature and it makes you feel less alone....i dont really like to hang out often untill im clear...then i LOVE oging out...it's just a matter of feeling good about yourself, and knowing what you can do to cope a little with the situation.....because it sounds to me like you WANT to be out there, even a little..you do....DO IT!....from your avator you look absolutely beautiful, and seem like such a cool girl...don't deprive oters of your company...

[Kidchan81]

i guess we are the same.... i started to shut myself up from the social world... my friend try to contact me but i try to avoid them... im so lonely.... i used to be a happy outgoing person but things have changed.... i wanna be happy again.....

[KaBooMx]

I used to be happy too when I was younger.. and people were more innocent... and you didn't have to care what others thought of you... I grew kind of quiet ... The fact that i was forced to move to another school with people I don't know doesn't help me... I'm getting used to it though

[Goody317]

I feel lonley sometimes, but I have family and friends to back me up.
