I was just having this conversation with a friend tonight, how some people are quite content to experience many things by and unto themselves, and for others things are much more enjoyable (maybe only enjoyable) when shared. I’m in the latter camp like you. It extends to other things too, like if I had a best friend to teach me hacking (in Minecraft) I think I’d be into it, but I don’t want to learn it from a book or anonymous forum.
