I must be the epitome of healthiness then

I like being alone, but it's getting rough being so lonely. I need to up my zoloft.

So true! I spent 3+ years in an overbearing relationship. Been single and refusing to mingle for a year now. Couldn't be happier!

i'm not sure, but isn't it supposed to be 'an other person'?

Been alone since june, dont ever want roommates again

I feel the same way!!! ...now I'm turning 30 and quickly realizing non of my friends felt that way and have families and shit....
Gotemeks
Just got off a relationship. After reading this post I start to realize that I relied on her to much. Being alone isn't that bad.
Islandace
I like being alone but comparing myself to other people feels like a compulsion at this point
WillJeSuis
But being around others is how you actually define yourself.

Oscar may be wilde, but Gene was wilder
sillyHuman
Not a huge fan of being alone with my thoughts, im not a nice person when im alone

All I've learned so far is that I dislike making decisions
Hemelsblauw
I wish I could enjoy living alone, but it makes me sad.
Avikus
You clearly need to send that to my ex. "Heartbroken" never gonna recover to engaged in 6 months!
NotCreativeEnoughToThinkOfSomethingOriginal
After 5 years I think I have had enough time being alone.

Being alone is my favorite

I am not afraid of being alone. I am afraid of ending up lonely.
Alone and lonely are two very different things
MrBodacious
I'm guessing he came up with that one while in Reading jail

I think people with label makers tend to spend more time alone
Caspooky
It's like the labelled things speak to you, unlike your family, friends, neighbors, doctor... psychiatrist... mental institute ward...
NoFucksLeftToGive
"Loneliness" is a label, "single" is a description.
GuineaFowlRagu
I agree with the sentiment totally but no way did Oscar say that http://www.snopes.com/quotes/timealone.asp
I've been lied to... I'll be in my corner over there
AnonOmis1000
@OP but I'm always alone...well, it feels like I am, at least.
Need a hug?
If the hug is from a chill lion that won't rip my throat out, then sure, lol.

This really depends on the person. Im a hardcore extrovert. I need company, or I get really down. In the same way that introverts dont enjoy
AgonistAnt
Wilde was a crazy extrovert also. He was mostly famous because of how he was an extrovert.
Being pressured into social situations, I dislike being pressured to have alone time. Im not myself when Im alone.
Fair enough. But I think this is more related with being in a relationship to feel complete

When you consider that Oscar Wilde was put in prison because he wanted to be with the man that he loved, and he died poor and alone in a (1)
foreign country despite being one of the greatest playwrights at the turn of the 20th century and that people at the time judged him not (2)
on his literary greatness but on who he loved, it really puts the quote into context. (3)
We wouldn't had had De Profundis or the Ballad of Reading Gaol otherwise...
Except it is not an actual Wilde quote.
Well, not an Oscar Wilde quote. Olivia Wilde said this, about 5 years ago.
You ruined my historical context you meanie... jk have an upvote
I have a bad habit of bursting people's bubbles.
