I used to be a people person.  But tables have turned.  I have been a lone person for some time, not that I didn't have people around me.  And to my utter surprise after all this while, when I hang out with people who were once close to me, I feel so estranged that I have to think about my lone times to feel okay.  I don't know if I can stop being alone.  If only I find someone who doesn't make me feel lonely...
