There's 2 types of loners. The loser loner and the cool loner. Unfortunately throughout high school and life I fell into the first category not the second. The one i always wished to be and looked up to was The cool loner, they're the one who does their own thing, dosen't really care what others think, rejects most people yet is looked up to and follows their own lead. Usually ends up popular in some way despite their aversion to popularity in general. They always have the 'cool' people approaching them wanting to be friends yet they prefer to do their own thing. Usually are hated or loved. This kind of person is usually miles ahead of the 'popular people' Then there's guys like me.. The loser loner. The type of guy who dosen't have good social skills, No confidence and jealous traits. The one who never gets the girl, the money or the friends. The dumb guy who nobody notices. The one who feels invisible around women. The one who nobody wants to spend time with. Known as 'the boring guy', the 'friendless' guy, the invisible man. We have to act out to get attention. We arent lone wolves, we are dependent insecure people who are usally better friends with the teachers and tag-a-long. We were dealt a bad hand in life.

Being a loner isnt a bad thing.

4. (Loner) (1349↑, 356↓)
This is a person who is always on their own. They prefer their own company and do not make friends easily. They often find solace in books or the internet. They are [alone]

Why is she always on her own?, she's such a loner

5. (Loner) (1129↑, 314↓)
Basically, a person who likes being alone. Unlike the social attitude that says people who are alone are really unhappy inside, many loners are actually the happiest when they're alone. Rather than finding solace in friends and family, they find solace in things such as video games, Internet, books, etc. But the main way political beliefs are inputted into people is through being social and associating one's self with others. So unfortunately, many loners tend to have radical beliefs and hold morals that greatly differ from their peers and even their own family. To put it simply, you can find a communist in a family of patriotic Americans or a conservative in a family of liberals.

Grandfather: Women's rights should be the main concern\! Father: Gay marriage should be allowed\! Son: Welfare should be abolished\!

6. (loner) (778↑, 133↓)
A person that tends to enjoy their own company. They are very introversive(meaning they have a harder time making friends.). Though I wouldn't say they are that way because they are socially retard, but they are rather more comfortable being by themselves. With this being said. Loners tend to be the less stressed out over social issues, and tend to be able to solidify, and worry more on their real problems. Contrary to popular belief. Loners do make friends, but tend not to want to hang out in groups. If in a gorup they will just be quiet, and will only say something if they know the subject well enough. Being a loner is what everyone dreams of, but when seeing one. They usually get viewed in a negative light.

I've been a loner due to the fact that the pressures of being within a social discourse community is too vast, and very irritating. People get mad over the dumbest shit, and tend to worry over things that aren't real problems...Like surviving..... I have a few friends, and I pretty much know a lot of people that know me. Though I'm always by myself. I doubt its my fault, but I'm kinda lazy when it comes to trying to make friends anyway... :P

7. (loner) (1090↑, 521↓)
A person who prefers to be by themself. Usually of low self-confidence resulting from severe depression. May have had a hard up bringing. Never fit into a social group (i.e. Preppie, punk, goth, jock, etc.) Not influenced by trends or fads. Has more original likes/dislikes than the common over commercialized asshole running around. Likes things that require INTELLIGENCE to understand. Many would like to have social lives but are rejected by ignorant assholes that don't realize these people actually have feelings, thus putting the loner back even further in social development. Many times called a "psycho" or a "retard", when they're probably the smartest or sanest person in the room\!

The loner is the one that doesn't get invited to the bar after work.

8. (loner) (435↑, 96↓)
Someone who often is alone. They usually have a few friends to no friends. Some people might take this as being stuck up but the loner just doesn't feel the need to reinforce the social feeling. But commonly there are places where a loner can feel more open becuase of the people around them or the setting (a particular classroom, or a person which they feel comfortable with, etc.) Most loners, if put in big groups by bosses, teachers, freinds, or even family, will often be quiet, has short answers, just stares off in nothing, or analyzes everyone's reactions and bodylanguage. They rarely have a boyfriend or girlfriend because they don't flirt, don't talk much, or give any social effort, as I said earlier. And that pretty much doesn't give the opposite sex any sign of interest consequently not getting asked out, and if they do get asked out they usually get asked out by someone who doesn't know them(loners are picky about who they let in their personal lives) and the guys they do like don't feel the need to flirt anymore becuase there was nothing coming from the loner.

guy: damn that girl is fine, doesn't she go to our school? guy 2: yeah, I bet she has a boyfriend. guy 3: no, she's a loner. preppy girl: why is he so quiet, what is his problem? preppy girl 2: lyk yeah, he's soo weird...

9. (loner) (337↑, 19↓)
Something I somewhat enjoy being as it means I can do my own thing, spend my time doing something I actually enjoy, and I'm not pressured to do what others want me to do.

Being a loner is OK.

10. (loner) (322↑, 22↓)
A person who actually has alot of self-confidence. They are able to do such things like go and see a movie or a concert alone and aren't concerned about being seen as a "loser" by their fellow human beings. People are also loners because they prefer their own company and get tired of people asking "why are you so quiet" whenever you actually do mix at a group function. They aren't afraid of silence and don't feel the need to flap their lips with other people simply just to make noise because silences between people is for some reason taboo. They are also generally calm passive type of people who don't make enemies and get along with everyone. Unfortunately our personality type also makes the best serial killers, we are calm, cool headed, and methodical.

The world needs loners, we aren't freaks, we are the quiet peaceful achievers in society while the loudmouths get the spotlight. We can mix in groups when we want to but find it forced and unnatural. You'll find we actually have quite strong opinions on matters since we have alot of time to sit and think over issues

11. (loner) (290↑, 13↓)
A loner is a person who doesn't need any friends but often feels like he or she should because it's "normal" by the standards set arount him/her. Any social contact feels like a burden and is likely to be avoided at any time. A loner is not an asocial character and can be very entertaining in a group he or she feels comfortable in. The loner is very picky in his or her friends and does not trust people very easily, the people that he or she trusts are often liftime companions and are often the best of friends a person can have. At work a loner is not always looked at as an loner as long as he or she is feeling happy about his or her job and often communicates with others very easily. The only problem comes to mind when those he or she works with want to become a social figure outside the work area, the loner usualy avoids contacts outside the work area. When a loner finds a companion he or she loves intimate that person becomes a trustee and the loner tries to hold on to this relationship as long as possible.

My life as a Loner. In my life so far I only felt in love once (im 28 right now) I met her at my job during the holidays, it was very hard for me to make contact with her. I was so afraid she would not like me and before I made any move whatsoever I needed to now if she liked me too. Luckily for me we had time to get to know each other and my selfconfidence grew by the days we worked together. One particular day I found the courage and asked her out for a date, she accepted and that led to a 3 year relationship. We broke up 3 years ago and I felt betrayed and still feel like this to this day, but in my hart I know it's just me who's in the wrong.

12. (loner) (318↑, 79↓)
A loner is just a person that wants to be left the fuck alone and likes his/her space. So don't mess with them.

goth peopleq and quiet people and ofter loners.

13. (loner) (289↑, 65↓)
Someone who is introverted and has little or no friends and likes to be by himself.They can be just either introverted and just feel happier being by themself OR actually be depressed and laughed at etc. Loners are often considered to be "cool" and "rebellious" in the media and stuff, but real loners are often picked on or ignored and treated like shit and alot of people would NEVER want to be the REAL loner.

I am a loner because I have few friends, don't socialize, play video games and surf the net every day and wasting my time defining loner on Urban Dictionary. I am a loner.

14. (Loner) (190↑, 4↓)
Someone who spends the majority of their time alone. They may have friends, but they just don't get into contact with them much. Loners are the type of people to hang by themselves with the computer and surf the internet, or picking up a good urban fiction novel and fantasize to those steamy sex parts. Usually shy and soft-spoken, loners are usually one-of-a-kind and have many hidden talents. Get to know one and you'll have a real friend in the making.

I'm a loner. It's pretty cool when you don't attract much attention. You're free and on your own. Who cares what people think? I have no one to worry about but myself\!

15. (loner) (210↑, 69↓)
There are three types of loners: 1. A person who doesn't know how to connect with others, verbally, or physically, even though they may want to. This is either due to lack of skills, mental social deficiency, or anxiety. The causes of which are myriad. 2. A person who does know how to connect with others, but chooses not to because they view people as either victims or prey. A predator usually operates best alone in the human environment. 3. A person who knows how to connect with others, but others do not know how to reciprocate. This type of person is usually very gifted intellectually and they understand and even take for granted many concepts,social que's,and knowledge as being "common" and "understood." This accelerated comprehension is beyond the others ability to keep pace and scope, so they lose interest. The "loner" here is not attempting to be offputting, they are simple comprehending the world through their mind, as the other is through their mind. Neither is wrong, or even better. It is simply a matter of their being fewer highly intelligent people, therefore making it difficult for them to connect with others. This type of loner is the saddest, because they have so much to offer, but no one can hear them.

Example of 1. A quiet lady who comes into a bar alone, sits down and orders a drink. She allows others to talk to her, but doesn't know what, when or how to say what they want to express. Unclearness regarding the boundaries and potential reactions of the other is at the root of the silence. Example of 2. A quiet male enters a bar and sits innocuously in the corner, with a low profile and makes no attempt to stand out in any way. They usually pick a strategically advantageous place to watch and listen to the goings on others. He will be seen regularly and will be known as very polite, quiet and easygoing. He identifies targets based on whatever is driving his predatory instinct. He then begins to work on a plan to carry out his attack. They are often the last person anyone would suspect, they have no friends, and they don't talk about themselves at all, beyond the cursory, which is why these types are so very difficult for law enforcement to catch. Example 3. A man comes into a bar, he smiles and readily strikes up conversations with others. Within a few minutes the other begins to feel a sense of being "lost" in the conversation. There is a feeling of disconnect. Within a few more minutes the man is left to himself. This cycle will repeat itself unless he becomes intoxicated, then much of the intellect is short circuited and some connectivity can occur. This type of person can eventually become a type 1 loner because they are at a loss of exactly how to socially communicate more effectively, and so lose interest. Ironically this is due to the difficulty of it. A loose analogy would be how adult people lose interest in talking to children about adult topics and more often vice-versa. The IQ distance can be as great as a five year old talking to a twenty something, except everyone in this situation, everyone is an adult.

16. (loner) (136↑, 15↓)
Someone who see the people in this world and knows they're fucked up, therefore avoiding interaction with them.

Why loner: Just look around the internet and you will see what i mean. They were those people who used to be my friends when we were kids but it's sad to see what they have becomed now.

17. (Loner) (125↑, 8↓)
Alright, kids, let's have a true, unbiased, comprehensible, detailed definition. First off, loners are not necessarily social retards or depressed. Yes, one could be a loner because they are depressed or lack social skills, but there are also many loners who are named as such because they simply prefer their own company. Loners are characterized by enjoying solitary activities, such as listening to and making music, constructing art, writing, reading, thinking, learning, gaming on the internet and in video games, going on the computer for whatever reason, and other individual hobbies. Loners listen to whatever music they like; anywhere from Baroque to Blues Rock, Heavy Metal to Folk, Indie to Rap, Country to Techno. They dress however they please; they may have their own individual style, or just wear standard jeans and a t-shirt from whichever store at which they find themselves. Loners are just as likely to suffer and not suffer from depression and other mental disorders as anyone else; however, more commonly found amongst loners than those that are social may be [Schizoid Personality Disorder], because it is, by definition, a "disorder" in which one lacks the desire for interpersonal relationships. Society today associates itself with a dogma that everyone desires to be socialized, have a close-knit or large group of friends and loved ones, etc, so that when there is someone who prefers solitude, they are often attributed as strange, depressed, feeling unloved, or insecure. This is not true. Loners are very diverse individuals; same as a case with someone you may find who is a social butterfly that fits into no specific group, you cannot stereotype or pigeon-hole loners. The only characteristic they possess that detaches them from another label is that they prefer their lonesome company.

Loners just like to be by themselves. That's all there is to it.

18. (loner) (97↑, 3↓)
someone who is isolated from others.sometimes self imposed,other times not

there's actually freedom in being a loner if you approach it the right way.you can do whatever you want (within reason,of course) and if you come to the realization that you are a loner,then there's no mystery if people are going to like you.enjoy your life and let everyone else worry about living up to some image.after my last girlfriend broke up with me,i felt free for some reason.sure,i loved my ex,but i didn't HAVE to be friends with her friends,i didn't have to talk to people she knew,but i didn't like.i didn't have to justify why i liked this music or watched that tv show.or why i had the job i had. people don't like me? so what\! i've been dealing with that since elementary school.if you make friends along the way,cool,but live your life the way you want.the WORST thing is to have regrets about not being what you wanted to be in life.plus your life is how you design it.you put yourself in good situations, then logically good things will happen.you hang around bad people and situations,then yeah,bad things tend to happen.and it doesn't matter if you're a loner or not.

19. (loner) (110↑, 17↓)
One who spends most of their time in solitude. This may or may not be by choice. If it's by choice, the person is probably an introvert and enjoys their independence. But for those who are a loner not by choice is usually the result of low confidence and the inability to make/keep friends and not fitting in with society.

There is nothing wrong with being a loner if the person enjoys their solitude. But for those who are one by chance, it is not fun and can result in depression.

20. (Loner) (91↑, 8↓)
A person who chooses to ignore the commonly held belief that humans are by nature social and therefore need constant interaction with others to lead an enjoyable life. Usually this person enjoys a plethora of solo social activities (internet, books, gaming, science/math related hobbies) and can comfortably attend social events and activities alone. Loners can interact socially and in some cases are well received by others; yet still look forward to their alone time. A person whose mindset is different(in many cases exactly in opposition to) than most of the people they interact with regarding politics, social issues, economic issues, and life in general. Loners in many cases would rather speak about issues that affect everyone rather than what this celebrity did on that day. Loners also have a live and let live attitude. In friendships and relationships loners are usually fiercely loyal and honest and can even be quite romantic; but their nontraditional style in many cases may leave their mates and friends in wonderment. If a loner finds a similar soul, they will usually bond with that person well because there is no strong social obligation/demand as there may be with non loners. Loners, if they do follow any traditions, usually do so in their own unique fashion which comes from self analysis rather than strictly following someone elses interpretation. Loners are close cousins to mavericks and pioneers. And some of them even become innovators and thinkers who solve certain problems in unexpected ways. Loners are not to be confused with the lonely. Lonely people prefer being social, but for internal and/or external reasons have problems doing so. Lonely people are the ones who suffer from depression and related disorders more than what is said to be normal because their need for human contact is not being fulfilled to their preference. Being a loner is an active choice. Being lonely is a collection of negative circumstances that limit choice.

The legendary Musashi was loner swordsman who, even though he trained under others, developed his best skills and even a strategic manual alone. The person who I consider one of the dearest people I know(even more so than most of my blood relatives) is a loner. She is smart. witty, intelligent, intuitive, deep, honest, caring, strong, assertive, free thinking, loyal as well as physically attractive(in a general sense because I see her as mom). She is teaching me ways to acquire my freedom and sovereignty more than just in my mind and habits.

Loner is someone who very well can be extremely extrovert. Someone who can have a lot of so called friends, out of which 90% doesn't have anything better to do except gamble, drink, and waste time this wonderful Universe presented us with. That loner despises herd mentality which is basis of contemporary world and its everyday happenings. That loner, high intelligent as he is, and realizing that man is measure of all things, can downgrade himself to the level of fools and idiots, but he feels lousy afterward, because after all he is above good and bad and all subjective truths, especially spoken by his superficial and shallow-minded so called "friends". He has real friends, but they have life besides him, like he does. He has a lot of them, yet they have a lot of their obligations and enjoyments instead of plain coffee drinking, conspicuous alcohol consumption, card, slot and roulette playing, gossiping, and all of the vices, his so called "friends" are engrossed in every day, waiting salvation to come, something to change. These pseudo-friends are not culprits for his decision to become loner, voluntary outcast and social misfit, because they just make statistical majority of population, they are that background noise that mars music and fills Universe. They are here for artisan to create, for flower to flourish. He has arisen amongst them like rose in dirt, like massive supernova amid plain sun-like stars, "existenz" that does not need the Other to approve of it, just because He is. On some subconscious, deeply hidden level, he feels grateful for that immensely funny moments filled with their infinite stupidity and absurdity, senseless discourses and dilemmas about trivial and banal things, that show real nature of Universe itself, presenting him with his freedom. His freedom he deserved watching, perceiving and finally understanding this absurdity and nonsenseless. His innocence he takes for granted, because he didn't ask to be born, yet he doesn't want to die. Anyway, these mundane enjoyment, our loner left behind, preferring company of his real friends, and "same-level" friends, ones filled with intelligence, reason, advanced morals, leaders not wanted to lead, yet despising more those who follows, wise, silent sages, loners themselves, loving company of the likes, true übermansch. Do not sexually underestimate him, diminish his masculinity, because he likes sex, he has sex. More options at sex than most guys he knows. He nails better chicks then they. Yet whether he finds them shallow or unattractive, he leaves them eventually, not being afraid of being alone, not wanting to pay outrageous price for sex: hours of prologue and epilogue that precedes and follows that same coitus, hours filled with utter stupidity and horrifying emptiness. He can live in company of Marcus Aurelius, Epicurus, Epictetus, Diogenes, Socrates, Seneca. History is abundant of his colleagues in the quest of solving riddle of life. Even modern thinkers are his friend, among which the dearest to his heart is the one who said: "Very tall tree is sentenced to live and grow all alone". This dearest friend is Friedrich Nietzsche.

That type of loner, very often is me. Sometimes I succumb to my animal instincts and socialize with "downers" and human animals, non authentic beings, just for the sake of forgetting myself, losing myself in anesthetic laughter. Here, I do not think of my dog, with whom I enjoy running through woods every day I love dearly.

A loner is someone who becomes one by way of personal experiences that have distanced them from people, preferably by choice. They are likely to be [shy] and [soft-spoken]. They enjoy loneliness and anything that's considered a one-person hobby such as video games, Internet & books rather than finding solace in people. They do their own thing, don't really care what others think of them & usually have no interest in pursuing intimate relations with anyone they like of the opposite sex; they prefer [platonic] connections. Occasionally, a loner will make friends despite their aversion to people in general. They're the happiest when they're [alone], yet they make time to [socialize] with the friends they have & make new friends. However, they somewhat oppose hanging out in groups; they will be mostly [quiet] unless they know something that's related to an ongoing conversation. They take interest in things that require intelligence to understand, which can make them successful in the hard sciences, like [computer science] and [engineering]. This can lead to nerdy tendencies, which may make the loner appear to be a lonerd, a [nerdy] loner. A loner is often [misjudged] by others who see them as [lame], [arrogant], [weak] or just plain [weird]. Despite that, they tend to concern themselves with their real problems instead of social ones. They are seen as [one-of-a-kind] and have many hidden talents. Get to know one and you will have a real [friend] in the making, and, in some cases, an intimate relationship.

I am proud to be a loner, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

A person who is [different] by society, but is normal like everyone else. They prefer to be alone, but are just as smart as everyone else. They just prefer to be left is solitude. 1. A person who is unique and doesn't fit into any groups. (ex. punk, goth, cheerleader, jock, d***head, ect.) They are simply their own. 2. A person who society has labeled "unworthy of attention" or "different" or "retarded", when they are none. But they might not get happiness from society for turning them into freaks, leaving them friendless. 3) Someone who is wanted by everyone, but doesn't want to have to meet the excpectations. If you see a loner, don't be a retard and make fun of them. Infact, you might be one yourself.

The Loner is a quiet creature. It has no one natural habitat, but is found usually on its own in a quiet place. The Loner is a solitary creature; the human counterpart to the Lone Wolf. Loners are subtle and charming, however they usually tend to be single simply because being a Loner mostly means that one does not have the care for another person or a group of friends. The Loner is rarely seen with more than 3 people at any time unless at a concert, dance, or other social gathering. Loners are usually very kind, as what small amounts of contact they have with others means a lot to them. The Loner doesn't rely on other people to define their existance. Things like school drama pose little more than entertainment to the Loner. Loners don't rely on others, and as a result are completely self-sufficient and know how to not look like a friendless loser when confronted with a situation with no friends around. Loners can be one's lifelong friend, voice of reason, and an all-around great person if someone took the few seconds and tried to be worthy of a Loner's precious time.
