Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

when i was living on my own i had to learn how to sew on buttons, how to patch things, put up shelves, as well as things like washing/laundry and cooking....i had never cooked anything when i left home so it was a learning curve to say the least!!

Sewing in today's throw away society.
What ever next. 
From SWMBO.
Her dad had the right idea, he'd give his wife a button and ask her to "Sew a shirt on it".
