oh, i need it for sure. normally I draw or chill out

I do need alone time. I currently live alone (with my cat) and have plenty of it, probably too much. But even when I'm in a relationship and spending time with that person, I demand time for myself. It doesn't always go over very well.

Trying to do this more. My favorite is silent meditation or going over some 12-step literature. When you're going through a fucked-up part of your life it can be hard to be alone. It's easy to get stuck in those internal dialogs...

I need quiet solitude. I'd prefer to spend no more than, say, two to three hours each day around other people. Most of my alone time is spent working, but otherwise I'm resting or online or eating.

I get up early in the morning to get some time alone. A couple of hours of drinking coffee, grading papers, reading, watching the news generally gets me through. Otherwise, I’m tied at the hip to my daughter.

I seem to go through periods of needing solitude and periods of needing company. May be weeks at a time at worst, it seems. I think it results from overstimulation. With managed control of socialization, it seems like it can’t be controlled, to some degree.

I deal with people on a consistent basis working in IT. My alone time kicks in the minute I walk into my home.

I am a loner and an introvert and prefer to be by myself most of the time, but I enjoy spending time with a woman when I have the opportunity to do so, which isn't very often. I have been a single man and have lived alone for over 40 years and while I am alone, I do not feel that I am lonely. I am retired, I have hobbies and I enjoy traveling by car and train and have a camping trailer and I enjoy camping and being in nature.

I love my alone time, although I'm probably spending more time reading posts on this site!!! Lol

I have to have alone time. I need it to recharge. Being around people constantly is just too taxing on my energy. They suck the life out of me.

My alone time is usually in my truck with the radio off parked by the beach sounds begging me to feel together again from sea water so similar to our blood. ...hot bath lounging long enough for water to cool. ... smiling at my sleeping SERVICE CATS is a treasure of alone time. ...it's when I am with idiot believers no Atheist around I feel most lonely

I'm quite introvert by nature and spend plenty of time by myself already. I'm not much for big groups so I only ever hang with a small handful of people at any given time. I get plenty of people time at work already. Rather be alone by myself than alone in a crowd.

I live near a nice nature preserve where I go to kill time and enjoy the scenery. I'll throw a podcast, debate, or just music onto my phone and just get lost for 2 or 3 hours walking the trails. I actually like the winter the best because of how nice everything looks and the shoreline in the bay area recedes. I can walk along the shore and even go a good 30ft out onto the ice without much fear. Plenty of friendly animals too, just a pleasant sanctuary that lets me unwind.

I'd just like to have a bit less of it than I currently have.

I like and love alone time. I write poetry. work on music, Planning to paint again. Creativity flows. The silence, to hear me myself think. The lack of interruption so the sequence continues. I am comfortable when I can impose my own timetable.

To clear my mind, sort out the clutter, process new ideas/information and consider new perspectives. I pretty much get alone time when I want it now that responsibilities a fewer.

In my younger days, I would grab alone time when the opportunity arose.

Don`t ask x rated questions LOL

I'm alone most of the time-online and watching news on MSNBC

I really need my alone time. I don't think I like people much.

It takes everything in me to be in public, and I have yet to find a partner that I don't classify as public. I come home drained and wrung out. Alone time allows me to reenergize. Current soft sciences (interpersonal communication, psychology) term that kind of person an introvert. Extroverts need to be in a group of people to reenergize. My friends are usually extroverts. I just find them exhausting after a while and happily leave early

alone time.... put my mind in coast and take my feet off the pedals.

Get some everyday. Also like to pick a little, just me and my banjo. Am retired, and my wife and I are sure to make space. We both are introverts.

If I don't get alone time I feel jangled, like my mind can't quiet down. I need to be able to pace myself at work if possible and when I go home I am usually by myself or with critters after that

Alone time is as essential to me as breathing. I have learned over the years to accept the intrusions of others -- so much so that it no longer bothers me. I work best when alone and all is at least reasonably quiet.

Fortunately, my wife and kids have all been understanding about this so it hasn't created any undue stress in the household and I appreciate that so much that when the intrusions do occur, I take them in stride. Most of the time....

I go to the gym, watch tv, get on my computer, play with my dogs. I definitely need my alone time. I can only take so much time around people. If I don't get alone time I start getting testy with people, even my friends. They know I need my time to myself. I'll take all the alone time I can get. I can be alone for a week and be happy.

Everyone needs a time out to recharge the batteries too much other people can be toxic even when you like those other people
