I tend to be a loner. A joke among my friends is that I’m a loner.

But I’m convinced that if I had met the right people in the right context to exchange ideas with, by now I could have created something I could be proud of.

So when I find out something I like was made by long-time collaborators, I get wishful.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know, OP. I understand the wishful thinking part but I tend to think that the sort of personality traits that make a person a loner are also the same traits that mean they're less likely to work well in a group. It's not just happenstance and rotten luck that you haven't met "the right people". For some people, there are no "right people" when it comes to creative collaboration.

[(Anonymous)]

I feel you, OP. I wish I had someone to bounce ideas off of. I got really jealous that my girlfriend seemed to be spending more time with her coauthor than with me and I think that may have led to our breakup.

[(Anonymous)]

do you want to be a loner, at least in a creative context? I know you joke about it with your friends, but you clearly value collab work.

collabs never worked in a serious context for me, when it came down to the nitty gritty me and my coauthors were just too different. but idea bouncing and really silly, low level expectation stuff had a totally different energy to it and I remember those group projects fondly.

Collaboration can brings out the absolute worst, too.

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe it's not too late. With the internet you could find like-minded people to collaborate with. I mean, I guess it's harder as you get older since everyone's time is split between more responsibilities (work, family, etc.) but if it's something you want to do as a hobby, you might find people interested. Some things (like movies, games, music, etc.) you just need other people to make them happen. Maybe you can post your creative work to a place where you're likely to meet the people you'd like to work with (YouTube for video productions, fanfiction websites for writing, etc.) you could put a note that you're always up for collaboration or something.
