there are time when people need to be alone to get their mind right some people like mw dont always need to be around people to be happy i can live with or without people people are meant to increase happiness that you have already.

I go through phases. I'm really sociable and love being at parties or with friends but after a while I need a bit of space and go into hibernation mode for a few weeks. Once I've recharged my batteries though I'm back out in the thick of things.

Space, privacy and alone time are DEFINITELY underrated. As LV said, sometimes it's good for you to be alone and get your mind clear. That doesn't mean you have to turn into a monk or anything, but I, personally, LOVE my "me" time. Even those people who seem to revel in constantly being surrounded by family and friends, would likely benefit from some "down time." I like to miss people, and I like to be missed. If I'm always up in someones face, or vice versa, they have no time to miss me, and me them. My .02 for the morning 🙂

I definitely need my private space and it is where I can listen to my thoughts,take stock,make decisions or even meditate or let my imagination off to play.Im not the happiest when Im alone as such,it is where my happiness is assessed through introspection though.Im not particularly at my happiest when Im constantly surrounded by people.It must be a balanced moderation between both.If I overindulge in one or the other there are consequences and the balance can be upset.Its not a complete formula for happiness Im writing here but to able to enjoy and appreciate the company of others and my own company has alot to do with it.

Oh yeah, when I mean Yes.. I mean sometimes. I like being around people. It just depends though, but sometimes it can be draining. So you always have to have those times to recharge your batteries again and relax.

Definately!
I am easily drained.
It seems like everyone just has some infinite supply of energy.
Why do they steal mine if they have so damn much?

Here is the order of ways from greatest to least of how I regain the ability to move.
1.spirituality
2.Bathing
3.Being alone
4.Sleeping
5.Drinking non alcoholic beverages
6.Eating
7.Exercise

It's not that i don't care about people...... It's not that i'm unwilling to help if they need something.....

...but sometimes, interacting with people just seems like i'm listening to white noise.

They're having an extended conversation about how nice dinner is, how it took them 10 extra minutes to get to work, what and i'm just thinking 'Get to the point'.

The truth sometimes more so lately than in the past
I want to be alone, the older I get the more I want to be alone.
I have thought about how a hermet does it and I can see why he does it.
I am setting on the veranda right now alone and loving it.
But I am on the laptop so I am not alone

I can be alone or not alone, but if I want to be alone yet not alone! my mind dis-engages so I am alone...I don't need to be on my own to be alone

YES!!!!

I blame my 12th house stellium. For me it's not due to irritation or aggravation though. I'd make a fine, hermit/nun. I am very much comfortable with me.

When around people who are quiet, I'm the opposite of my 12th house stellium which ironically, is a libra placement. The libra in me is like the typical libra I suppose...self_absorbed and talkative 🙂

I love to be alone. Thats when im most creative and get stuff done.
I need to restore for a long time then i come back out of my cave again.
Sometimes though, when im alone, i just want people to be around me. Then when
i have people around me, i just want to be alone again. I torture myself (:
