May 24, 2018 by apost team

One of the most basic human traits is to want to belong. It's easier to feel at home in the company of your loved ones, family members, and friends. However, if you can enjoy your own company, you will never really feel alone.

People hurt, disappoint or even abandon sometimes because they are not perfect, nobody is. But no one will ever understand you the way you understand yourself. Therefore loners are the kind of individuals who are self-sufficient, have a small circle of friends and do not get intimidated by loneliness.

In fact, they love their own company, are self-aware and are usually fun-loving as they don't have any expectations from the world. They choose their friends very carefully and will honestly tell their buddies to give them their personal space as and when required.

Here are six unique traits of these lone wolves:
 

1. Self-awareness

Most people continue to grind 24/7 without taking a break and have a chat with themselves, but not the loners. They don't ignore their thoughts and feelings, no matter how insignificant they seem to be.

But what makes this trait an advantage is that these people don't let their emotions overwhelm them. Instead, they use it as navigation points to take control of their lives better than anyone else. This is why they also usually have the best advice to offer to others.
 

2. Personal Space

Loners respect and expect firm boundaries. It's a good initiative towards a strong and a healthy relationship. It allows two individuals to grow independently as well as also enjoy the friendship built on logical, moral and faithful foundations.
 

3. Open-mindedness

Being alone doesn't mean being lonely. They are two different things. Loners don't dislike people. In fact, they are usually the ones always up for new activities or adventures. They love to explore, meet new people, try different things, and are quite a pleasant company.

All this urge and will, however, comes from the satisfaction that loners have had their alone time and won't mind stepping out.
 

4. Loyalty

Since they don't have a large circle of friends, they tend to invest in one or two close friendships. But once they do, they won't leave any stone unturned to be there for their only friends.

Also, if they know that you understand and accept them as they are, they would happily make an exception for you because they know you are worth it.
 

5. Honesty

One of the reasons, they prefer their own company over others most of the time is because they cannot stand pretense and fake behavior. They are neither selfless nor selfish. They are simply honest. They detest liars and would never try to fool anyone for their good.

Even though it may pinch sometimes, but they will always tell you the truth.
 

6. Respect For Time

Time is of great value for people who treat it like a treasure. Loners not only spend their time like they spend their money, but they will also address your time as an asset. Therefore, they are usually punctual and won't waste anyone's time in doing things that are utterly unnecessary. They are organized and disciplined.
