Summary

Daniel has no current friends or emergency support; lasting friendships ended around sixteen, while travel contacts eventually faded. He links this loss to online-game addiction, choosing Star Wars Galaxies over visiting school friends and skateboarding. A newspaper-round commitment abandoned from exhaustion still causes guilt; he avoids friendship responsibilities and concludes solitude outweighs loneliness.

Insight

He recognizes internet-enabled isolation as self-created, yet rationalizes withdrawal by prioritizing autonomy over reciprocal relationships.
