Why I don't really want to work alone

Note: this is not a complaint thread, this is me just wanting help.

It's a common fact that writers are loners. To some extent, that is most definitely true. Most writers spend most of their days alone, writing days on end, to get their next chapter done. No one had once raised the prospect that this could be cut down in half by working with someone. Here's the thing, writers don't like working with other writers, since they're introverts. If there's money involved, they will do anything to including having to put up with you when they have to work on a project together. If you don't have any of those things, what exactly is the point? this isn't much of a big screw you but i have never in my life met someone who was in it for the fun, the thrills, the passion of it.

It could be the lack of free time, busy with life, or get bored easily with everything. whatever it is, that's the reason i'm always left to my devices. When I ask for brainstorming on ideas or looking it's the same old "diy or It's up to you" bullshrimp. i get it. no one knows my characters but me. It's understandable. I won't mind making a entire wikipedia just you can have a basic idea of the world, It's People, and just about everything. so let me just close with this, i'm not exactly here to look for a writing partner. maybe I am, maybe i'm not. would it be nice if someone is on board on working with me? I don't but considering my reputation on here or the entire web, i highly doubt it.

So I have two options, should I work alone although I want to at least be taught somehow to be a better writer or should I find out a way to get someone t be my writing partner?

P.s.: So why don't you want to work alone. Because, I feel lonely. I have no one to continually bounce off ideas from. I don't have someone to tell me a I have a plot hole. I don't have someone to tell me this should have been this. I could do this all my own but the only things I'm good at is spotting spelling mistakes.

Is better have someone to compare and review each other. I can do that if you need it.

So I'm a bit confused here, but uh,

not all writers are introverts? I'm not. I have a published book and I'm not a loner at all.

If you want to share things and get validation, I advise you find a place catered for that. There are roleplay threads on this forum, for example, for that reason.

Figure out what you specifically want, and figure out how the communities goes about fulfilling that. If the community doesn't, find another community (instead of, or in addition to) that scratches that itch.

Plenty of people just write fanfiction and release it into the wild, getting attention that way.

Other people do roleplays. Other people post art or snippets or quotes. Other people listen to podcasts as they write.

Other people go to clubs or gatherings specifically to get feedback.

Etc. Etc.
