Are some of us meant to be alone?

I've always felt the need to be part of a group, to have an identity that is highlighted by the people around me. It's human nature after all. But every time I feel good in a group, for example, a friend group, it doesn't last much. I either feel the need to distance myself from them, or do it involuntarily, and end up feeling guilty and sad because I still want to spend time with them but it just doesn't feel the same anymore. Does it make sense?

It seems like in any circumstance, I end up distancing myself from others and being alone again. I don't hate being alone. But I prefer having people to talk to, to spend time with. But for some reason I push them away and get this feeling of uncertainty. Am I meant to go solo? Or do I still have to find thw right environment.. the right people..? It is exhausting.. getting attached to someone.. then drifting away.

We are very much responsible for our actions.

@Bleak What does that mean?

I'm guessing that because your profile is unavailable to me that you must be very young? There's plenty of time to find a circle of friends whom you do feel comfortable with. Without wanting to sound patronising many of us went through that sense of alienation in our teens and early 20s - and grew beyond (not out) of it.

Not meant to be alone, but made to live alone for commercial purpose by the divide and rule conspiracy. In fact nature never created us to be alone for ourselves, but created for each other. Reason why our eyes can see others fully, hands can hug embrace another, lips can kiss another, but we can do none of this to ourselves.

I grew up in isolation on a farm far from others. I can kind of relate. Unless one has grown up around others one always feels like an outsider or a third wheel and going back to what is familiar seems safer.

This forum is a good place to build your own group of people. You can disappear if things don't work out. Set up a new account and build another group.

@Japrost Is that a sentence? At least, punctuate it with a full stop.

Is English your first language?
