Stephen King

I was in enough to get along with people. I was never socially inarticulate. Not a loner. And that saved my life, saved my sanity. That and the writing. But to this day I distrust anybody who thought school was a good time. Anybody.

Author

Michael Douglas

I do think of myself as a bit of a loner, a bit of an independent. I'm one of those people who, when they're sick, like to curl up and remove myself. I don't like a lot of people around. There is nothing you can do to help.

The term 'loner' can imply someone is lonely or anti-social, which might be viewed negatively.

Often Negative

'Loner' often means choosing to be alone, not just being alone by circumstance.

Voluntary Solitude

Don't confuse 'loner' with 'hermit'. Loners can have social contact but prefer solitude at times.

Not a Hermit

Being a 'loner' can be a choice to be different and is not always negative.

Positive Uniqueness

Loners might choose to differ from a group but can still be part of it.

Not Always Alone

In sports, a 'loner' relies on self-motivation and personal goals.

Self-Reliance

When referring to athletes, 'loner' should be used carefully to not imply unsociability.

Respectful Use

The gaming definition of 'loner' is limited to card games and means playing without a partner.

Card Games Specific

'Loner' in card games often suggests a confident or strategic decision.

Strategy Involvement
