why is it that if ever you just want to be by yourself people always think that there is something wrong
i'm 18 but i'm not like other 18 year olds i don't want to go out all the time and go to all the parties that are held at school. why do people see that as have something wrong just because they are not like that other 18 year olds
also i don't have a boyfriend and people see that as a problem

I completely agree. Every one of my friends are really out going but I'm not. It's actually sometimes quite hurtful. :hugs:

It's not a problem. People are different, and those who go out to parties etc are different to us. And we are different to them.

:hugs:

I'm guilty of this - whenever my friends want to be alone i assume that there is something wrong and they are upset or whatever but now i've realised that so many people like to just be alone and have space, alot of my friends are like that and as starchild said it's not a problem because everyone is different.
