I don't feel lonely when i'm alone

I don't feel lonely when I'm alone. I feel at peace.

I've always known that I'm alone and I'm used to it.

If I fall down and hurt myself, I'm alone.
If I'm completely down on my luck, I'm alone.
If I'm hungry, it's on me to find myself some food. I'm alone.
If I'm the victim of abuse, I'm alone.

But, remaining alone in all aspects, of my own volition, and stopping seeking the validation that I never used to get from others anyway has brought me a surprising amount of peace and solitude.

Is it normal?

    Definitely normal. Loneliness is a concept I don't understand. I live alone and love it. I am a loner and proud to be. I don't really like people that much.

    As much as most of society would want you to think otherwise, IMO you're normal. Different, but normal.

    I've been living as a voluntary loner since 2009, and that's not about to change. I don't mind being on my own.

    Just because you’re used to it doesn’t mean it’s healthy.

    i belive the concept of "feeling of loneliness is sad" is created by the society around you and the social medias..

    This is how I usually am. I love my solitude and I can spend days totally by myself without feeling lonely. I do need company just for its own sake eventually though, solitude does get to me at some point.

      Naturally, but when it gets too much you can always rely on friends/family to cheer you up. I do.
