It's sad that we were all so worried about what people think so much. It ruins our lives.

Being a loner is a very powerful thing. I’ve been a loner for as long as I can remember and I love it. When I was growing up, I used to be somewhat self-conscious about it because it was never looked upon as being a cool thing. As a youngster, I could get along with just about anybody and I was never really awkward. I just never liked hanging out much or staying out late like many of my peers. Now that I am a mature adult, I really have grown to appreciate my life as a lone wolf. I am most comfortable when I’m by myself and it’s gives me plenty of time to think. I believe the problem with dividing your time between so many people is that you can lose yourself. One must maintain their center or their core no matter what circumstances arise.

Why is hanging out with your mom and your dog sad?!? If you're happy, that's what really matters!

I'm a loner. Loners appreciate other loaners. List what you think are qualities of loaners. Loners are observers Loners are good listeners Loners are creative Loners need alone time Loners are independent Loners don't need the approval of others Loners can be 'in their head' often

I haven't had any friends for a while and it's been a blast

Introversion is a complete luxury that only serious amounts of time alone can provide.

Benefits of being a loner: I don't have to share my food. Silence.

I had to stop going to church because church folks kept asking to many questions.

It isn't sad to be a loner. True friendship is a rare and valuable thing (and this is true for everybody). Friendship is a good thing, but it is quality over quantity. Most people get this wrong, and think more 'friends' are better. With this attitude people end up substituting good friends with shallow, manipulative, broken relationships. I am really happy to have a couple of good friends in my neighbourhood, and keeping all people who claim to have 100's of friends at arms-length. Thanks for your vid :)

I love being a loner, less headaches..

i had way too many friends in highschool that there was way too much drama... and friends turning against each other...and then some betray you and side with others over jealousy and then some create their own group and leave you out... I actually enjoy being a loner rather than having way too many friends cuz all those things change the way you see having many friends.. its actually not that great but having 1 or 2 real friends is all i need

#1 benefit of being alone is Judgment Free!!! I agree with you about that. You can do whatever you want & nobody has to raise their voice & comment "how toxic you are" or other negative comments. #2 benefit: you have more time to self-reflect of who you are as a person I learned how to be like a monk when I am alone. I self-reflect a lot. Meanwhile whoever comes into my life, I welcome unconditionally with open arms. But when they leave, I let them leave & do not bother to chase them. If they came back, I still welcome them with open arms & judgment free. Being alone thought me how to be more compassionate with myself & others around me.

I am a Loner, but I am not lonely.

Your dog is adorable! In high school and all through my 20s I hung out and worked with a lot of people, I’ve always been introverted but felt I had to be more social and extroverted to succeed and be happy but now in my 30s I totally enjoy being a loner! Only people I see on a regular basis are my husband and immediate family! I also work alone at night. When I go out shopping I will be friendly and socialize with people and I have a few friends I talk to online but honestly I enjoy being alone and don’t want anyone at my house! I spend my free time reading, writing and playing guitar. I have a dog and cats and they are great company, I find people who are loners are more loyal and trustworthy, in my experience the really extroverted people were a lot of drama! Glad to hear others are also happy being a loner, it is so peaceful! The less people you hang out with the better off you are, there is no drama! Do

You don't have to be a loner all the time. You're a nice girl. YOu can make a friend to go and get ice cream or go to a restaurant. I'm 50 now and the older you get the harder it gets to make new friends. All the friends I had when I was young have died or just slipped away a long time ago.

Being alone, peace, and tranquility.

I have never met any loner females.

Being a loner is beyond awesome! I would much rather spend my evenings eating hot buttery popcorn and drinking ice cold Coca-Cola watching episodes of the classic BBC series Doctor Who, appropriately enough about a lone English gentlemen eccentric who travels through space and time, than around a bunch of obnoxious, drunken, self conscious, meat heads. These types always seem to have little imagination and independence and always seem troubled by peer pressure. They will never know the joy and serenity of the loner...

Thank you for this video. Very informative on some of the benefits you pointed out. I am pretty much working a lot and on my days off, very rare I get a chance to meet people.

im a loner i have been for a while for the most part i like it but every now and then some lonliness and emptyness creeps in i find on hot days seeing everyone doing stuff together and public holidays i feel it and i miss at times someone to talk too i find its hard to find good friends.

I build unique interests and have a very different perspective on life than most.

Self introspection is a good thing thing. Explore your own mind.

I'm a loner, but i do have friends, but most of the time, except at church on Sunday, and on Tuesday night, they're not with me.

Great video! You are very wise 😊.

I wonder why you came to me at this point in my life. I too have become a loner, I guess. The older one gets, the harder it becomes to make good friendships. All my friends from my more youthful years have gone on to other places in their lives. I think that we (loners) have an advantage because we’ve learned how to move through life’s challenges and complications. We tend to be much more analytical. Cute pup!

Proud to be a loner! I been a loner for almost 10 years and sorry I am so late to this video but it popped up on my feed.

Despite I have friends and family, I struggle with reaching out for them, for people in general. And what I want is, doing the things I do on my own with them, getting to know me thru doing things with them. And I wanna know, how to reach out for other loners? Where do I find them? How do I get in contact with them? I really appreciate this video, it gave me hope and a direction, and I think you are doing good with this video. Please make more videos like that.

Hilarious 💅..Meritorious Staplemeknot ji.Guffaw! You are having most Amazing relationships on earth.You want to be spinster till the end of ur life that is mocking habit.Hats off your parents and Luckily your parents known the value of marriage 🙏.

I always felt like I wasn't ready for a relationship but I found I was never ready for a friend. Thanks for your insight on this topic.

It’s true I love being alone as well..... I strongly agree with you ❤️❤️❤️

My opinion is that the best benefit of being a loner is the development of your inner voice aka internal dialogue. My best hobby is just have conversation with myself.

thank you, I appreciate it

i don't know..., i am a loner, but i don't really feel exactly the same way as you do! i am happy for you and the others who do, but the only thing i like of being a loner was/is that i really had time to think complex thoughts through thoroughly! i had the feeling all those people hanging out with "gangs" don't have the time for that!.. and when they have the time, the thought they once had has slipped their minds and/or they're to occupied with other trivial thoughts like clothes and make up n'stuff...! now, i don't know if thats true, but thats how i saw/see it! with people around you, you have to react so much on what they're sending out (emotions, trivial questions, important questions they haven't thought through as much as i did..)! i don't have time to really think as much as i like when people are around me and reacting on all that i mentioned in the parenthesizes coasts me a lot of energy... the last point in them don't, though, i enjoy deep thoughts and debating about them! :-) thats the only thing i really appreciate of being alone (not lonely, like you've mentioned, these concepts are completely different)! good video, though, but i was so distracted from your fingers, because you kept fumble with them! xD

Friends are enemies in training.....

I cant imagine why would a girl be a loner. It's literally impossible unless it's strictly her own choice

hi Im from the Philippines, just found your channel and i like your energy. maybe we can chat sometime and learn from each other..same here i choose not to have toxic people in my life and you need clearing 4 that. so i have to let go of many old friends and even relatives to have peace. Ive been a loner wolf evrsince i was a kid, now im in my 40s & still cant find the right people to call "friends"---u know those who dont compete with people and not backbiters haha..im digging u girl we are not alone. Being a loner doesnt mean ur lonely ur just happy and comfortable being all by urself and theres nothing wrong with that. Id rather b all by myself than b with toxic two-faced people. GOD BLESS dear

I hate being a loner

you are amazing :)

For me, i am like Goku from DBZ anime. I do stuff alone, meet people along the way and get back to do my thing, i don't hang out with them. When i feel i want to visit someone they get happy that i visit and talk a lot. I might let them accompany me for a while but it has to do my thing. Chi Chi stalked Goku and begged him to marry her, so it might work.

I am a loner and have been all my life. Many feel like you are lying when you say you rather have it that way. Most people want to be around people most of the time and be alone some of the time. However, a loner wants to be alone most of the time and be around people some of the time. I have heard of instances where some people literally have hundreds of "friends", on youtube, twitter, etc., but ended up committing suicide because they were very lonely. There is a difference between the words "loner" and "lonely". A loner decides that this is the form of life that is beneficial to them and they are happier in being that way. A lonely person is depressed, mostly because they are trying to please people who really don't care about them. Whatever the reason loners are better equipped to live a life alone.

i been ah Loner since 1979 , 40 years 'in'.......GRATEFUL !!!!

Awesome video 😂😂👍👍

I agree with your benefits, but I think what you're talking about its introversion. I believe that loner is more a sad and lonely state of mind (that's just my interpretation). I have a few friends on the outside, but I consider myself a loner because it's more my ego that has friends rather than the person inside. I feel that the loner state of mind is feeling alone in this world rather than just not hanging out with other people. However, I love this video and agree with your points

THANKS!

BTW thats a beutiful dog i saw it towards the end nice dog.

I'm starting to love this "loner" lifestyle.. I love people and know there are great people on this planet. But, I don't need them to be happy with my life.

just give you the time you need to connect to yourself...

I love it to glade to be one you learn to be self sufficient and at the end of work day with extroverted people I go home to peace and quiet sweet serenity

Another benefit is that a loner can have a very diverse range of interests - more than one may be allowed if one is to identify as part of a particular scene/group/crowd/tribe, or have a partner whose interests may be very narrow in contrast to one's own. I don't even have a pet. One can also silence the mind when there's downtime, while if friends are calling or a partner/flatmate wants to tell you about their dramas you have to engage with that rather than chill.

I'm a loner, but I've always had trouble communicating with others. It's not fun, but it's just the way things are.

Not sad at all, you don’t mess with people, I ain’t mad at it

i have no close friends, never had any really if i did it was very temporary even though i cherish my alone time, family are the only people who i can really go to for support no one else cares, also been single most of my life pretty much given up on sorting that out too, its a different world we live in now, i do wish sometimes i had someone in my life but whatever

I'm a Loner but I still go out and talk to people and make friends not for validation or any b******* like that it's just boring staying in the house all the time

I use to be the type of person that had so many friends and always wanted a lot of friends to be happy. When i got older I would be surrounded by a group of people/ my friends and honestly I started feeling so empty. I been a loner now for 1 year and ghosted everyone its been the best decision ever cause now im living for myself and not for other people

How in the world are you a loner? Your social skills and intellect are phonomenal. So pretty too. Proof that loners can be amazing. I think this video is very helpful to many. Your interaction with your dog was cute and funny. Very positive. Great job on this video.

I like being a loner too, but I wonder how much I'm missing out on. Practically to get through life, you need to be around people to find out information, job opportunities, common interests etc.

Main benefit of being a loner is that you don't have to talk to, you know......PEOPLE! Nice doglet by the way. Geordie is clearly a fashionista of the highest order. What d'you call a zoo with only one exhibit-which is a dog? A Shih Tzu!

Enjoyed your video. INTJ?

The benefit of myself as a loner is you also are very coucious on whom you let into your life and dont ever let the wrong people in so choose friends wisely otherwise stay to yourself. To hell with tryin to get into a group of friends and try to impress them. Cause they might be bad influences.

thanks, through I was ,

YT “How to be alone” by Andrea Dorfman It’s like a manual😌

You are pretty you are gonna be ok.

i'm a loner, social media ghost(except youtube), mysterious, lowkey person.

I am a loner person, and there is nothing wrong with that. You are still normal and don’t question yourself for that. Some people have a lot of friends but they are unhappy. For me, you don’t need to force yourself to please others, that’s hypocrisy! I have 2 friends and i am ok with that, but most of the time, i am all by myself

You should live how you want to live not how people want you to live. You do you.

Gve me a dog anytime. I lost mine to a snake bite and have never got over it, I live alone and enjoy my own company. I have acquaintances and love a chat but I socialize with none. I have two phones, One I use as an alarm clock and the other is one of those Smart phone that gets charged up when flat and then charge again when flat. I call no one and no one calls me. Aint life grand?

I love being a loner

You're cool dude

Then how do I get a girlfriend as a loner then? Being a loner sucks

I adore your eyes... :*

Hey i m alone i m not loner i need people to talk help me out .

Im a loner because i dont like or trust people

Aha! Start of back away! Back a way and start of live for you may you be 20 or my age 61! It's up to you. 'Person.'

It's great but has a down side!

I actually quite hate people. And i think it is inferiority to needa huuge social network as they can´t entertain theirselves..... Offcourse, life is pretty boring sometimes but it is also cause i live in the city, i´d LOVES to live in the nature, just alone surrounded by the nature.

Im a Loner and i wear Satanic shirts and people think im a weirdo but i dont care, gets rid of unwanted people! Lol

In heaven nobody is a loner.

If an extreme extrovert is a one, and a hermit is ten, I'm about a an eight.

A loner that's not...a loner

Your not a loner real unless you have zero contact with people outside of media. Sick all theses people with a few friends saying they are loners like WTF.

Voluntary loner is great involuntary loner is not great I am a loner not through choice and I can tell you it is not great spending lots of time on your own when you don't want to destroys your mental health. Plus you have no future with no people in your life.

Tidy up your room, your giving loners a bad name lol. Whether your a loner or not is not the issue, however you must like yourself and not be guilty about it, then other aspects of your life will fall in line, so basically we are on the same page. Your coming across here as a happy well adjusted caring person, i wish only good things to come your way. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Yeah but I when it comes to ur wedding day and u have no best man around ur sorta screwed I'm somewhat of a loner but just saying

The benefits of being a loner is getting closer to God and walking in Jesus Christ footsteps.

I'll go out for ice cream with you

Women can't be loners. Ya just can't. You're already turning it into some kind of mocement thing LOL!!! The proof women can't be by themselves is that you're ALL making videos about it. Real loners don't make videos about it; they don't see it as something special or worth talking about let alone making youtube videos on it. Ya don't have anybody to talk to so now you talk to the camera and hope lots o' people will watch you. Funny.

lol you're like me

lol.. what she's talking about?!

Schizoid, like me.

You too pretty to be loner..

Loner stay away from me-bad energy bad juju depressing party pooper low vibrational energy

But I see loneliness in your eyes ,and you aren't comfortable with it

The negatives outweigh the positives... and I don't care who you are, no one likes to be alone.
