Loners

I do like to talk to like-minded folks and I'm not shy. I'm perfectly friendly and nice when I have to meet people in social situations. But that is how I view it - as somewhat of a chore.

I grew up in a rural area with a dad who was sick, a mom taking care of him, and learned to function very much on my own. I do have siblings - one is much younger though. The other one who is close in age is more of a people person, but drew the line at getting married. In contrast I got married but I made sure to marry someone who is also quiet. We can literally send emails to each other if we're in opposite sides of the house ...

I guess I like the computer because I can interact when I feel like it. The worst feature is chat - I always have to remember to turn that off.
