On my own
There was a time where I was not afraid to be alone. Not that I didn't have any friends or anything. Just that, I avoid the cliques that invariably form in most social situations. Meaning I do not hang out with any particular group exclusively to the extent of ostracising others as most were wont to do those days. Kept life interesting, as I thought then. Partly also due to the fact that I was pretty much value my own privacy and kept to myself more often than not as well.
Now all that has changed.
