I am an only child and love time alone. I can go out to eat or go to movies alone, no problem. Riding my motorcycles for hours on end is a great way to relax and get away from it all.

I'm always really busy. For that reason I grab food without even thinking of looking for people to eat with. The truth is I like to finish my meals in under ten minutes and get back to my day. Even when I'm back home, my parents get upset because I grab food and go, but I really can't afford the time. When I get upset or if I have a lot of things on my mind, I also walk alone usually near Lake Michigan and think things out. I also need to study alone. I went to a library in UCLA one time when I visited a friend, and I had no idea how people studied while others were talking. But I can never go to a movie or a party alone. Even when it's to meet friends, I hate knowing I am going somewhere and possibly having to sit alone until my friends come. That's not for me.

I absolutely hate being alone! I know, that's awful but I do. I can shop alone (only if I know what I want and don't care about other peoples opinions) but that is about it. I've never eaten alone in a restaurant, gone to a movie alone, gone to a bar alone. Hell, I still live with my roomie because I hate living alone. I purposely make plans with people to avoid being alone. And that's not just now that I'm going through some rough stuff.

I'm an only child and spent WAY too much time alone and feeling "left" as a kid. Therefore, I think I'm trying to overcompensate now. I wish I was more independent (which is funny because that is the first word most people use to describe me) when it comes to this stuff...
