No I wouldn't, I am an anxious fuck who does horribly in most social situations and regularly tries to remove myself from the hustle and bustle to recenter. But I have relationships built, forged and tempered through some shit that I wouldn't be able to stomach letting go of... and that's just the emotional/ spiritual side of it for me, that doesn't at all include the practical and logical side of things.
You will get worn down, you will get sick, you will get hurt, you will age. How one handles those things by themselves is preparation of course, but you can't prepare your way out of a broken wrist and needing to split wood for the coming snowstorm without an extra pair of hands.
I know a guy in his 70s who spent roughly 40 years on his own up in the mountains and he's one hell of a man, but I know him... which means he eventually left that isolation.. his reasons are his to know but there's one thing he's for damn sure taught me.
You can't do it all yourself, and having someone that cares enough about you to want to help is worth all the effort you can muster.
>tl;dr: You can only go so far on your own and if you do it good on you, just know you probably want it because your running from something you're scared to face... which is vulnerability with other people most likely.
