Hey all,
I'm Stephen, 20 from Liverpool UK.
I'm not lonely, rather I am a loner. I've had the propensity all my life but I've had stints of "Popularity" and being social. I have been a "loner" the last 2 years after I left college, opting with intent to isolate myself.
Why? Not entirely sure, but I do like things simple as they are now. I still maintain a highly social job, and I also volunteer. Pretty much all of my friends are now much older than I (40 - 60), whom I know in real life, mostly by volunteering and I see them every week through our common cause. That motif has actually been the case most of my life, though I was very popular with my peers age 10-13 and again age 16-18.
I certainly don't feel I am socially inept, but I am privately quite averse to superfluous socialisation. I simply can't be arsed most of the time, and I like being alone too much to make an effort anymore. I struggle to relate to the banality and myopia of society in general.
Over the last few years I have crystalised those prejudices and unfortunately lost a lot of my optimistic self and become somthing of a cynical misanthrope. This is all I wish to change about myself.
So yeah, hi.
