What would be more tolerable for you? Being left entirely alone or being surrounded by others 24/7 with no break ever at all from them?

Me too. The other would be HE**! Thank you for your reply L! :)

I don't know about you, but if there was another life for me, I'm pretty sure I was a hermit!

I very much enjoy interacting with SOME people and exchanging thoughts opinions ideas. On the other hand I do get pleasure just from asking questions and if no one ever replied I'd still ask them because I'm driven to for some reason. Hermit makes me think such person doesn't like people. I like people. Some a great deal some not so much but I like them on my terms by my choice and timing. I'm drawn to those who are wired like that. I'd say maybe we are LONERS? What would cause someone to withdraw from society completely and without communicating with others do they eventually go mad? I like being in complete control of those I touch base with and here I am absolutely in total control. Thank you for your reply L! :)

I guess "loner" is a more appropriate description.  There are very few people whom I would like to be around all the time.  

Ditto! To my GREAT fortune Jim is one of them! Did I luck out or what? I did. Thank you for your reply L! :)

You did luck out - in more ways than that. :)

Indeed. In fact I just asked a question about being lucky m'dear! I know I'm lucky and you are too. WE KNOW IT. I wonder if other lucky people realize it? Thank you for your reply sweetie and Happy Monday to thee and thine! :)

We sure are.  Happy Monday. :)

:):):)

You are? Then why are you here?

I'm a glutton for punishment. 

So all you want it what you KNOW? You are fine never expanding increasing improving?

That was not your question. Your question was would I want to be surrounded by people 24/7 or be alone 24/7.   
My answer depends on what people. 

Your question did not limit my access to information. (ie Internet/tv/etc)
