Adolescent angst of a 23 year-old

I was a loner. I was a loner with a sister as my confidante, companion, philosopher - everything. Then my sister moved across the world.And I became a loner with friends from school. Who became my *very* good friends. And also the reason I thought I could make more friends. College convinced me otherwise. So I resumed my mantle of loner to the tune of Cynical Sam's refrain : I told you so! Then came training. And I met lots of people and made friends. A year later, I am still surprised to discover that they didnt feel the same.
Same damn thing over and over. And I don't learn. I don't think this was quite what Elton John had in mind when he sang "Circle of Life".
