hermit

A hermit is a person who lives to some greater or lesser degree in seclusion and/or isolation from society.

The life of a hermit is usually very lonely, they don't like going out and seeing other people/friends and prefer to stay indoors.

A hermits best friend is usually his computer or television. They usually find sanctuary in games such as Guitar Hero or World of Warcraft.

Hermit

When someone is being a hermit crab or hermit crabbing they lack the motivation to leave the house. They stay home in solitude and shelter themselves from the rest of the world after they have pushed everyone close away.

Realizing that no one wants me has left me hermit crabbing all day.

I just want to be a hermit grab and shut people out.

Hermit

A person who would rather play video games than socialize, meet girls online rather than in a bar, & get delivery instead of going out.

Pat is a hermit because all he does is sit around & play video games all day.
