loner

/'lounə/

loner is a noun for someone who usually prefers being alone rather than spending time with others. It points to a repeated habit or personality trait, not just one quiet afternoon, and it often suggests choosing solitary activities or avoiding company or help. But loner is not exactly the same as introvert, recluse, or lone wolf. Its tone can be neutral or slightly negative, so phrases like “a bit of a loner” can soften the description.
