I see my friends a lot outside of school right now because of FIRST robotics but after that ends I will likely rarely see them outside of school.

I really don't. I wish I would/could start though. I haven't been over to someone's house since 7th grade because of how awkward I find it all... I also dislike other people's houses.
I get more and more self conscience because people will say things like "I don't have plans for the weekend, I feel like a loser" - I mean, I NEVER have plans so I end up feeling like an extra-loser.
I have noticed more people making fun of the idea of a "Loner" in High School... I never saw anything bad about being alone or not wanting to make friends... its all kinda depressing for me.

Yes because all my friends are outside of college anyway so that's the only way I can see them.

Never. The thought is horrible, I find it hard to speak to them on things like Xbox Live let alone IRL>.

I like my alone time , very, very much.

No, I like my relaxing time. Last time I was "out with friends" was over two years ago.

Its a balance for me. I like hanging out with my friends, but after awhile I just get sick being around people and want to go off and be by myself. Then after awhile I kinda feel like I need to socialize so I figure something out and waste my time with someone else. Or I dont have any plans for the weekend for example so im alone for a long time and then get down because what the heck I should be doing something rather than being antisocial which I can be good at. I dont even have a cell phone because I hate people randomly talking to me like on facebook chat which I go offline to avoid certain people.

No, I don't see friends at school or outside school.
I prefer the loneliness.

I never see any of my friends outside of school, unless you count extra-curricular activies taking place after school or on weekends.

School is really my only social life.

I don't see my "school friends" outside of school. I have other friends I do stuff with outside of school though. They're great. About a third are at my school, but we rarely talk during school simply due to circumstance.

So rarely, I chose never. I only allow them over on their constant persistence and only if my parents give permission. To quote Avarice:
