Is it normal to enjoy being alone all the time?

Depends.It depends

Yes, enjoying lots of time alone is normal; some people genuinely feel happiest with plenty of solitude. It’s worth paying attention if being alone feels more like unwanted isolation or keeps you from things you care about.

Some people recharge around others, and some recharge by having the place to themselves. If you like your own company and feel content, there’s nothing wrong with choosing a quiet life or keeping a small social circle.

The useful distinction is whether being alone feels like a preference or a trap. If you’re lonely, avoiding people because of fear or low mood, or missing out on relationships and activities you actually want, it may help to reach out to someone you trust. You don’t have to become a social butterfly—just make room for the connection you want.
