I'm very much like Grissom in the sense that I sometimes just like to be alone and there's no ulterior motive to it. I just LIKE being alone.
gawd, me too. i mean, i'm social and all, i go to parties, have a bunch of friends, but it bothers me to have people around me all the time. if i am to spend a week alone, that's not a problem, if i am to party with people, i will.
sometimes there is just this need so you don't have to entertain anybody, talk to anybody, or socialize. you are alone, you need this time to spend only with yourself and you don't give a DAMN.
I think that you can like being alone and still want to be WITH somebody, but you don't need to be around them all of the time.
i agree. i have a friend, well, she's not my friend - i hate her, lol, but she was all social, then met a boyfriend and since then they haven't separeted for more than arm length. this is very, very unhealthy. the girl? i haven't seen her for a year, nobody did, even though she leaves right next door, and last year she bothered me like hell. not that i don't enjoy the present situation, lol.
And I don't think Sara feels that way, either.
i think in this aspect they are pretty similar. that's why she undestands him better. but we know that deep in their hearts they were longing for contact with others. it just wasn't the MOST important thing they could think of. although for Sara probably more important than for Grissom, but still.
