Some people spend a lot of time alone. Here's why that's not necessarily a bad thing, by belladepaulo
Thanks to the annual American Time Use Survey , we know quite a lot about how adults in the U.S. spend their time. It is an excellent survey, based on a nationally representative sample. Participants are asked, in great detail, how they spent a 24-hour period of their life, starting the previous day.
The findings answer a fundamental question: Who spends the most time alone? They do not, hoewver, address an equally significant question: How do peopleabout the time they spend alone? Is it about the right amount, is it too much, or do they wish they had even more time to themselves?The first answer to the question of who spends the most time alone is that older people spend more time alone than younger people do.
The men, who are more often spending all of their waking hours alone, are less likely to be appreciating that solitude. Previous research has shown that. They enjoy spending time alone more than men do. They also tend to be more satisfied with their friendships, and they spend more time pursuing their interests and hobbies.
