Alone

When a criminal is labeled a loner, from what criteria is the label drawn? How do the labelers devise their definition? Largely from what they see on the surface. Lives alone? Loner. Not married? Loner. No kids? Quiet? Loner. Is that person alone by choice, as loners are? Most likely not. The seven-time deadbeat dad with bad breath and only one hobby; shooting squirrels, is alone. But only because no one can stand him. Alone, but not a loner.

Gifted children walk and talk at an early age, have vivid imaginations, high powers of concentration, love to read, and spend a significant protion of their time alone. Parents who fear raising snipers might be raising composers.

Anger. Envy. Desire. Betrayal. Rejection. Love. These are not the motives that move loners. We do not want those things from others - acceptance and admiration and control and power - that make social people kill. We neither hang nor thrive on what others think, say or do. The fact that we mind our own business saves us from the types of torment that typically lead to violence. What want nothing from others but to be left alone. We lack the motive for crime.

But what are parents to do when eerywhere they look are warnings that they might be raising psychopaths? A list of "warning signs for violent children and adolescents" offers "isolation, being what is known as a loner." Yeah, but that could also be on a list of ways to identify a genius.

NOTE: This is not a group for people that are lonely. It is a group for people that enjoy being by themselves most of the time.

    You don't have to live alone. God is always there.

    PurpleOreos, I'm sorry about what happened, but that isn't what I mean by alone.

    BlueFire, I'm pretty similar to that.

    I normally am in my room reading mysterious/dark books, listening to music, laying silently staring and thinking of nothing at all, or on here to avoid my sister who resembles nothing of me. If anyone in this group resembles at least one part of me then let me know...

    I really think that people are scared to be alone in fear of being different and made fun of. Fact: DEAL WITH IT! If you prefer to be alone but are afraid of being made fun of then you aren't truely wanting to be alone...a fact of life.

    Happy now? A lighter shade of red, to signify that it's like the others, but something is still different.

    I think the colors coordinate with my outfit nicely.

    You changed the badge colours? I liked the yellow/green. It looks a bit dark and depressing now, tbh.

    I believe we should gather somewhere, sometime. And chat.

    Thoughts?
    Make a room for it?

    Just like you mistook lust for love, you have mistaken being alone with loneliness. So I'm fine. Thank you for asking.

    Perhaps I have portrayed the wrong people in my original post but some people go alone so people will come and try to comfort them. Attention seekers such as those do not belong in this group.

    I am not saying there is anything bad with people who are strange but I do not like people like emos or whatever. This group attracts emos which are not loners. They openly show that they are depressed and try to tell everyone else life is awful. Strange people are fine but not those who try to depress everyone.

Chaotic Minds

"Alone does not necessarily mean in solitude. It is a state less of body than of mind. Most often we are alone in a crowd. Alone, as in distinct. As in, Stand Alone. Alone, we are alive." - Anneli Rufus, Party of One
