Am I selfish?
I'm 18, fresh out of high school.

>About a year ago my parents seperated. I hop in my car go and live with the other every two weeks.
>They were very civil about it. Though I moved alot of furniture.
>Naturally, sleeping alone, they get lonely. So they come to me with riveting plans to go to movies, go shopping, etc
>I am a person of extreme solitude who prefers his own company and is working almost every day anyhow, it's not like I'm NEET.
>I regularly reject their proposals to spend time together, though I make some exceptions because I love them and want to make them happy.
>My brother, who usually goes wherever with either parent, regularly chastises me for this, but he has his own problems
Am I being a selfish son?
I feel like they're not entitled to my free time regardless

Honestly, I'd say at least go with them half the time, at least until you move out. Encourage them in a nice way at the right times to get back in touch with their adult friends or to go join adult classes at gyms or something so that they spend time with other adults and not you.

You're an introvert and your brother is an extrovert who cannot comprehend someone preferring solitude.
