Hi all, new poster here!
I have quite a few close friends I spend most of my time with but I don't think I actually like them very much, which is why I prefer to alone, watching old films and eating ramen. Sometimes, though, I get pangs of loneliness stemming from the idea that, in fact, I have no friends who I truly enjoy spending a lot of time with and that the closest people to me (my family) live a hundred miles away and, I believe, are remarkably disappointed in me. Maybe I like being alone because I don't like putting up my normal facade all the time, but it's so hard to accept that I may not ever find someone who likes me normal. How do I come to accept this? I want to be alone and NOT lonely.
