Parents and family keep asking me if I'm okay since I don't go out much. i stay at home in my room, read books, watch TV. What else do they want from me? Is it really that hard to believe that a human being might just like being alone? I get the whole "social animals" thing, but some of us like our solitude and shouldn't be questioned about it every time we just don't feel like hanging out. I genuinely just like being alone. It's peaceful. Less people, less problems.
