Prefer being alone or with people?

Which do you prefer, being alone or being around people? (Just wondering what is the majority answer).

I prefer to be alone.

It varies a lot. For the past few weeks I've liked being with people more.

I prefer to be with one other person who i can be close too and talk any way i want. thats all i want or need

I need people. Too much alone time makes me horribly depressed. I can't spend more than a day or two by myself.

Very much the same for me, although when I have a bad social experience i.e when I feel exposed or vulnerable I can take long periods of staying in my house.

I need both. I am naturally an introvert who also gets energy from people sometimes, strangely. So i need to balance this.

Usually if i am around a lot of people for a few days, i take a couple days off without seeing anyone except maybe a close friend. Works for me. I regroup by isolation, if i dont get the chance to do that, i become grumpy and anxious. I am an INTJ, so.

i was just telling some one the weekends are bad for me. A empty house with just my thoughts is getting to much to bare. 4 months of mostly just me is way to much of me.

used to be a super extroverted person, but for some reason things shifted a great deal a few years ago and i turned into an introvert.

i cherish my alone time now. less chaotic, less headache, MORE solitude and quiet!
this helps me to become more grounded and in my own energy!

I prefer to be alone.

Lately I almost always prefer to be alone.

Lately I almost always prefer to be alone. I relocated a little over a year ago and haven't made any friends. I don't like MAKING friends very much. I would like to have people to hang out with, but when I consider all the discomfort it requires I really would rather just be alone. It kind of bums me out a little to type it though.
