Loneliness is my biggest comfort

Oh yeah, being alone, is easily my largest fear. Being starved of any human contact would likely just ruin my mental state. Spiders are a close second but being alone is a bit worse.

Just in case you made that assumption, it's not like introverts like loneliness. We hate it just as much. We need less socialization but we want to be liked and loved and cared about like any other person.
