Being alone is my choice. I came to this site before I realised it. Due to some personal issues, I was on a bad rush for friends and socialising, but eventually the epiphany hit that I am and always have been a loner. I like being alone. I'm not trying to be mean, but people tend to bore me. The majority talk honeysuckle. If it isn't Big Brother, The Only Way is Essex, who's wearing what, who's fit and who's not, it's some petty drama that makes me want to tear my hair out and scream, "Grow up and get the fresia over it!!" Try and have an intelligent conversation and the majority stare at you blankly.
So, being alone, doing my own thing at my own pace is heaven. Thing is, though, loner doesn't have to mean lonely. Loners can be very happy. I'm happy. I'm an introvert. I like quiet and my own company. I have that in abundance. Why be upset? I'm enjoying my "loneliness". It doesn't make you a freak to not want to be with others. Pheenix, you said you didn't understand why you have no desire to socialise. Sounds to me like you're introverted.
This is the point, though, and this is the key to everything, really. Self discovery and self acceptance. You need to find who you are and whoever that person is, you have three choices. You either accept it, run away or change it until you can accept it. I've accepted who I am. I'm still learning more and more as I go, but that's just fun. Don't try to be something you aren't. Don't socialise for the sake of it. Don't think solitude is a bad thing just because. If you're someone who loves to be alone, accept that that is who you are and embrace it. Be alone and enjoy it. That's all I can recommend.
But, it's late and I'm rambling. I bid you adieu.
