Do you like your own company

I've always been a social butterfly but I have to admit as I'm getting older I am becoming a bit antisocial and I'm finding I'm enjoying my own company more and more.

At one time I would look forward to going out socialising with my friends but I'm finding I want to stay home.
I often go looking round the shops on my own lately too, at one time I would have rang someone to come with me but I seem to be preferring to go alone.

I'm not sure why but wondering if it could be an age thing?

Don't get me wrong, I still do enjoy my friends company but just don't like going out as much.

Do you enjoy your own company or do you prefer to be around people

Both.

I love Ms d00d dearly and don't know what I'd do without her, but I like 2 or 3 days off per week, and so does she.

I go out around town, take some pics, have a coffee somewhere, maybe a burger. I meet people but at the same time I love the solitude. She does something similar, I'm not sure. We spend the majority of our time together, all the better for having our own taste of space.

Both here too, I can enjoy going out with friends or my daughter, but also like being alone too.

I think you need more time to yourself, you can find incessant talking an irritant. I switch off, unconsciously, sometimes which can be embarrassing.

Bit of both for me too Lion Queen.
I look forward to, and enjoy going out with friends or my daughter and her hubby, and sometimes it's just Mrs Fox and me, but I like to run on my own, and potter about in my workshop. I think having some time on your own is a necessity.....

I agree, while my husband and I love each other we each have our own place in the house for 'me time' My computer is in our spare room and it's my 'woman cave' and I love to come up and here and play games on my computer and go on facebook and OFF. John loves to go into the conservatory where we have a kareoki machine and he will sing his head off and I can hear him from up here LOL. He also likes to watch sci fi things on TV and I don't like much Sci Fi so it suits him if I want to come up here and he watches his stuff.

Autonomous folks faff about, when real folks die in movies.
