Yes, that's strange. Some people like you have something called Avoidance Behavior Disorder, or Fear of People, or some type of phobia's, etc.. They also have problems with TRUST. If you think you might have some of these, see a therapist, usually these people are type II personality's and have anxieties. Plus, they do not feel good about themselves, they sometimes think of themselves' as Bad People. Good luck.

No, not strange at all. A lot of peope feel like that - sometimes. Some often.
Company is not always good, or desirable.
You will find that - strange as it sounds, - many old people, once their partners have died - are at first very lonely after a lifetime of having someone around.
But once they get used to living alone, they actually prefer it!
Independence and freedom (of mind as well as of movement) has its own benefits.

Hmmm, some people are like that. As long as you don't spend all your time on your own, it's okay.
My friend is a little like that, and I respect her for it. Makes her seem a little mysterious, and I enjoy the time I do get to spend with her.

Not at all. Embrace your individuality it will set you free. Also seek immediate therapy. Just kidding.
As long as you are happy with yourself and do not see it as a hindrance it's all good.
