Hmmm...I don't know, I guess for however long I would have to go, but I'd be hoping for contact the whole time. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteSo, it looks like others are answering a question, perhaps "how long could you go without human contact?" I don't see a question, and Rafflecopter is telling me to leave a comment. But I shall answer the question anyways! Ahem: I would like to think I'd be able to make it for quite a long time, but it would depend on whether I was allowed to be *around* other people at the time or if I was cloistered away somewhere. I would probably touch people on accident at first because I'm clumsy, but I would get very careful if it hurt people like in the book. After about a week of no contact I imagine I would become depressed, but I would probably get over it. Hopefully I answered the right question! :-)
ReplyDeleteA day maybe? at the most.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
I own a copy, so I am not entering..but I totally loved this book and think about it...cannot wait for book two!!!
ReplyDeleteWow ok I feel dumb now. It's really hard to read the white on light gray there in Rafflecopter. Haha...
ReplyDeleteProbably a day or two. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't go very long at all without human contact. I'm a very huggy person! :)
ReplyDeleteOne day, most probably.

For me it depends, if I have lots of books I could go for a couple of days, but if it's just me with no books about and hour lol. I don't do well in isolation!
ReplyDeletePavan
haha seems like most of you couldn't go too long ! - unless you had books ! ... I feel like I could go awhile. I used to be a pretty big loner.. heck I still kinda am! Good luck everyone !
ReplyDeleteI dont think that I would last a day. Theres not a day that goes by that I dont love my kids hugging me. It would be so lonely.
ReplyDeleteEhhhh... I think I could probably last 3 weeks or so, so long as I had food and good books :)
ReplyDeleteProbably a week or two, provided that I have food and books. If not, I'm sure I'd be terribly bored.
ReplyDeleteSame as everyone above! About the books and food (Psst...we are answering the 'Human Contact' question right?)
ReplyDelete@Maegan Morin - Seriously ! I don't have kids, but I can imagine how hard it would be!
ReplyDelete@JesseEmmaZach, Layen and Isobel Mcvilly- you guys are getting braver! weeks with no human contact? YIKES :) lol and yes Isobel, that's the right question, thanks for everyone's imput!
It's hard to say,I don't know maybe three days indoors ,outdoors depend from environment.
ReplyDeleteIf face to face contact it could be several days and I'd be fine. If it is through media somehow it has to be every day contact.

Awesome giveaway! I love and own Shatter Me, so I won't enter (don't want to be greedy), but I tweeted for you! New follower ;)
ReplyDeleteIt honestly depends wether or not I have lots of books. If I have lots of books (or computer), four days maybe. Without books (or computers), one or two days haha.
ReplyDeleteA year maybe!
ReplyDelete@Silvy I hadnt thought about that! alone outdoors would be very different from alone inside.
ReplyDelete@Brenda - I know what you mean ! I need my twitter and facebook as sad as that may be lol, and of course my blog and all you lovely book lovers
@Cheles Bells - happy to have ya!
@rouge- I agree.. I really depend on my books and computer lol. I'd say I should work on it, but I wont
@Ashley- WOW .. thats some confidence you have haha
I'll agree with Rogue! I could survive as long as it takes if I have enough books. :) But without them dunno, maybe it would be odd at the begging but later I would find something to do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway.
probably a day.
ReplyDeleteI'd guess a couple of weeks. I'm not a big hugger, but I need some chat time.
ReplyDeleteI am a total people person/social butterfly! My husband says until I die (literal think, I suppose!) but I think emotionally I could only go a week at the most. :-)
ReplyDeleteProbably a day. =)
ReplyDeleteMaybe a day or two. :)
ReplyDeleteA day, tops. 24 hours.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I could go without it a day or two. I love people around me :) Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI've gone three days before and that was absolutely lovely. I got to putter around, create things, read and write, eat delicious food with nobody stealing it off my plate, and live out my dreams of hermithood before I realizing that I missed everybody. Three days is the limit, I think.
ReplyDeleteOf course, I have three little ones constantly underfoot, and can't even go to the bathroom without teeny fingers poking under the door, so I might crave solitude more than the average bear. ;)

ReplyDeleteDepends I guess. I have days where the last thing I want is human contact.... and other days where its difficult to go without. I guess in total, I could maybe go a week... would hate to have to find out though.
ReplyDeleteNot very long, always looking for cuddles off my son!! Although it would be easier if i was alone and people weren't around.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure prob. a good while if I HAD to. It would not be cool at all but I think it would be doable.
ReplyDeleteSupaGurl
Oh, Gosh! Good question! I think... Maybe one day or two? Yes, I guess. Or not. It's something to think about, but I believe not too long.
ReplyDeleteI don't really know if I can answer that as it might depend on how I was feeling at a specific time, depressed, ellated etc.
ReplyDeleteI would say probably not more than a few weeks.
Thanks for the giveaway.

Probably about twelve to twenty-four hours before I lose it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!

What a fantastic giveaway! I've actually already read this in ARC form, but I'd live to have my own finished copy :) thank you for the chance
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway, thank you! The longest time I've gone without human touch is two days when I was just moved in to my apartment. I don't think I can stand longer than that!
ReplyDeleteI don't know... I guess it depends on my mood and the things I could do to keep myself busy!
ReplyDeleteNot long. I like space, but if I didn't have human contact for a while I would go crazy.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a day, My husband used to work 12 hour days 5-6 days a week for the longest time. I felt like I was going crazy in the house by myself so, I got me a cat. Still felt like I was crazy though. Things changed when he got him a new job. SO glad he did!
ReplyDelete~Review~
ReplyDeleteThe description sounds very interesting! I would love to read it! Then I would have to let my friend read it we LOVE books like that!
Certainly not as long as Juliette!
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway! I love this novel :D
I can go approximately four hours before I start talking to myself (I like to talk) but I don't know how long it would take till I go officially insane.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway, shared on our book giveaway site http://ukbookgiveaways.blogspot.com/. Pop on over for our weekly book blog spot every wed-sat xx http://www.beckvalleybooks.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI could go months and maybe even a year. Thank you for this fantastic giveaway! :D I have Shatter Me on my wishlist and can't wait to read it!
ReplyDeleteI think I could go maybe a week without human contact! Not that I would like to try it!
ReplyDelete24 hours at most unless there is no people around me at all (meaning I'm locked in my house on my own, which never happened for longer than a day anyway)...So, beyond 1 day, I don't really know
ReplyDeleteIm not sure I could go anytime without contact. I have 4 boys and everyday they cuddle and kiss me, it would be hard to be without that.

ReplyDeleteNot more than a day I guess.....Going without human contact would be wierd.
ReplyDeleteNot more than a day,it's kind of impossible not to bump into people..
ReplyDeleteNot very long! Even though I'm not a touchy feely person that would be so hard!
ReplyDeleteIt depends how many fantastics book I'm surrounded by. When I read I'm in my own world (:
ReplyDeleteI'm an introvert & I don't mind being alone. But I'm pretty close with my family so it would be hard to be away from them for too long.
ReplyDeleteOne day, maybe two...
ReplyDeleteThanks!
If by human contact you mean go without touching anyone, then I think I could do without it for a long time. I don't really like anyone invading my personal space, let alone touching me, apart from closest family or friends.
ReplyDeleteBut it would be quite difficult if I couldn't see or talk to anyone, especially my family.
well with books a my mp3 player, water and food - mhm, week or so... but not longer.
ReplyDeletethnx for this awesome giveaway
I think I could do a few days...I went travelling and there were some days when I wouldn't see anyone!
ReplyDeleteMel S
I could probably barely go a day without touching someone. i love my human contact! :) thx for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI am so pleased to have found your blog and also such an amazing book giveaway by a genre that i love! Thank you for this giveaway and i look forward to following your blog.
In response to your question about going without human contact, my answer is that i could not at all; i care too much about other people and being around and with other people is very important to me, even if it is for just a hug!! xxx
I think I could go maybe two or three days. After that I would start to get lonely.
ReplyDeleteuhhhhmm I thinj I could go maybe for 3 or 4 days..
ReplyDeleteLove the giveaway :)
If I have to I could go a long time without human touch...at least I think so, but I don't want to do that, don't even want to try it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
an hour at the most :P Thanks for the amazing giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI've been known to buy a book by its cover and this looks like a great one!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway! The cover is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAlso, if you're interested, I'm holding a 100 Follower Giveaway at: http://incandescentenchantments.blogspot.com/2012/01/100-follower-giveaway-international.html
Also, to answer your question, I could probably go a looong time. I'm a pretty solitary person, as long as I have a book with me!
ReplyDeleteI don't know... a day maybe?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
Weel, a week max :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway :)
As long as I have computer & phone, I can go days without any real contact, but without it... not even a few hours, I guess. :O
ReplyDeleteProbably about three days it wouldn't really sink in that no one else was around until then!
ReplyDeleteI think I could go a few weeks
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess one day is not a problem. Three days maybe the max.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway. :D
Not very long! I'm climbing the walls during the 6 hours the kids are at school!
ReplyDeleteI think maybe a week. I would enjoy the quiet at first, but then I would miss the human contact & interactions.
ReplyDeleteThree days top. And after that if I get one, I can't stop talking)))
ReplyDeleteI'd maybe enjoy the novelty of no human contact for about a week, then I'd start to wonder if it was as appealing as I thought it would be, after 2 weeks I would probably have built a scarecrow to talk to.
ReplyDeleteI would say a few days. I'd go nuts after that.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe a month and then it would be too much to take
ReplyDeleteNot long, a week max - I'm a people person
ReplyDeleteI can probably go with a week but after that I don't know what to do aww
ReplyDeleteat the present time a few hours
ReplyDeleteI can manage a couple of days when the bf's out of town and I'm alone with my books, but after that I get pretty lonely. I think I could probably manage a week, two at a push.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I could last long...I love hugging my friends.
ReplyDeleteHard question! I don't think I know to be honest. Maybe a week? A long and painful week... :D
ReplyDeletei generally think i could last a while because i do enjoy having time to myself however at the same time i love family and would need contact with thwm
ReplyDeletea couple of days maybe..its difficult im used to be with my parents so it would be difficult be without them!
ReplyDeletethanks!!
gfc follower
umm think id b lucky 2 last a day!! x
ReplyDeletenot more than a day but if I have my darling hubby with me I don't need anyone else.
ReplyDeleteI've always been pretty self-sufficient, so I think I could go for a couple of months. It wouldn't be pleasant, though.
ReplyDeleteWell I don't think I could go a day without seeing my husband, but otherwise I'm quite good at being on my own
ReplyDeleteabout a day!
ReplyDeletePhysical contact or just communication? I would get bored without either.
ReplyDeleteNOT MORE THAN A DAY OR SO
ReplyDeleteHow long could you go without human contact? I would say maybe six months...It would be so so so hard.
ReplyDeleteWith books and my laptop I could probably last a month and the reason being is I'm an only child so i'm used to being by myself already as it is.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a one week.
ReplyDeleteWell... As long as I'd have books I could last a while.
ReplyDeleteI could probably go forever.
ReplyDeleteA day or two... as much as people irritate me sometimes, I can't last long.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway! :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome blog ^^
Hmm, I could go as long as it takes without human contact and especially if I have my books, my music and PC <3
Thank you for this awesome giveaway :) And to answer your question: I can live very long without personal contact, even for weeks probably, but without the Internet and a phone... probably only 24 hours ;)
ReplyDeleteMonths easily, I am not a touchy feely person :)
ReplyDeleteLol, no idea! If I have books to read or internet, probably a long time because I'll have them to keep me occupied, but without that, maybe a couple of days ;) Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI think I could go about a week without human contact, any more than that and I'd be very lonely. I might not even manage that, could maybe be about 4 or 5 days. I'm not sure I'd like to find out though!
ReplyDeleteNo idea, couple of months?
ReplyDeleteNot long. I mean, sometimes I like to be alone but I'd hate to go without everybody for an extended period of time. It would get boring and lonely!
