This is reality and I hate it. I'm the odd one out at home, my closest kin are all the same and it's as sad as it is infuriating. You just need to take a stoll past a high school at lunchtime to see the extent of how bad this has become. Todays generations are basically living their lives via a device in their hands... life in a box.

I'll be the first one to admit that I have anger issues, but I do go out of my way to extend friendly, polite and courteous respect to my fellow man/woman out in the world and it just doesn't sit well with me when other people can't, won't and don't even make the attempt to reciprocate. And I don't mean people lining up to suck my dick for holding a door open or moving aside for someone to pass in an area of close quarters. Just an acknowledgement of thanks, a nod of the head or a smile. None of that shit costs a GOT damn thang last I checked!! But so many people just seem to be without the vaguest idea of how to interact in public with ANY kind of manners, it just burns me up most of the time. I know I shouldn't let it, but it does. More work on me, I suppose.

I don't ever go out of my way to courteous, polite, friendly or respectful, I don't even see people as my fellow man/woman, so maybe this helps me stay me. I totally agree where the fook is basic manners, This was a lydon quote that i found many many years ago, and repeated it probably to often to my kids: "Manners cost nothing and make every-one happy"wake_up_bomb wrote:

Calling all fellow hermits. Is it just me, or does anyone else not particularly like going out, being sociable and get easily annoyed by people?

I've come to realise over the last few years that I actually don't like that many people -present company excepted - and I genuinely really like my own company and just pottering about the house.

I used to feel bad about this, but only because society tells you that you're a sad loser if you don't have a hectic social life and loads of friends. Well fuck you society. Actually, I do have a few friends who I'll go and visit, but I'm just very picky these days.

I work online, do my shopping online and only go out unless it's important, excluding walks in the forest. I find that a lot of people piss me off. It's not arrogance, or thinking too much of myself, but it's just that most people are hard work.

Maybe if I knew more people like SZ member is real life it would be different. Until then, I'm loving my hermitude.

G'day LesleyPumpshaft.

It sounds to me that you actually have standards as to what and where you attention is directed ... where attention goes, energy flows. ;)

Further, it sounds to me that you have come to make your own standards based upon your own beliefs and are not simply another 'number in the crowd' of the followers of the societal 'norm'. :thumbup:

Anyone having an issue with you living the way that you do is more than likely pissed off that you aren't 'feeding' them the energy that they want you to. The 'hermit' label is simply another guilt trip that they attempt to use to gain your attention so that they can 'feed' off of your energy.
You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into.

Funny you should mention 'feeding' people energy IAAIM.

You get high octane people. Well, I'm a low octane person and feel drained very quickly when I'm around the wrong people. Unfortunately there's an awful lot of these 'wrong people' about.

I'll be back to chat to all you lovely hermits later, but I'm having to bust my lady-balls today. :heart: :goat: :puppy:

I have a system that works for me, if I find that it is a real effort to be around someone that particular person is not for me, they could be really great to someone else as a friend but not for me to be around.
I'm very sociable and that is one of my abilities, but I am like you in a way and people do get on my nerves very quickly at times

Despite my love of 'me time' I am able to socialise, barely.

Difficult to go out and about with people I work with because in the main they're bigots. I can only take so much unwarranted bile before I react so I tend to avoid too much socialising with them.

Most chums have drifted away over the years - the husbands and wives of people I know tend not to like me very much - but there are still a few I can hang with without worrying about saying something that scares them. Well, scares them more than my usual talk of love, peace and understanding.

One such chum invited me to his summer bbq do and it turned out pretty disasterous. Too much talk of mortgages, school places, those pesky immigrants and sing along tv shows. Mind you, I did kick some tail playing swing-ball so it wasn't that bad after all. :)

Given the choice I'd take a night in with a book over a beery night with the lads any time.

You all talk of being a hermit and then in the next breath talk of spending time with family and friends to your large group of internet friends.
God forbid you should ever find out what real isolation is

God forbid that anyone has to find out what real isolation is, mate.

I think this thread is as much about feeling out of place or just generally unhappy with some company. That kind of thing can make people think that they are 'not normal'. IMO

I think it has a lot to do with the situation were in and if you enjoy yourself alone or with one or more people.

My actual opinion is that we are naturally grouping together beings in a more primal setting or a situation of need, and the only reason we may get to actually experience alone time is because of a civilized society, and our access to peaceful solitude in our own place.

I'm the guy who's spent the best part of 21 years sitting in my room playing games :hahano:
I haven't been permanently indoors, I used to go to my mate's a lot and play multiplayer with him and my bro and cousin. Managed to get to Japan twice. So I'm not a total and complete hermit.

There's isolation, and there's real isolation...the kind of real isolation that gives you what I call "the fear". I don't like that kind of isolation...I think it might be a city thing, not sure if I'd feel "the fear" in the countryside surounded by nature.

I like my own company, but I like the company of others as well. Being a true hermit, utterly and completely alone...doesn't sound so great to me really.
