I grew up in a weird way. I was never very sociable as a small kid. That gave me a rep of an ******* in middle school. By then, I did want to socialize, but on my own terms.
I socialized to the point that it got me an edge or leg up. At that point in my life, socialization outside of my peer group, was not a priority.
I'm going with nurture on this one. Having a child that was adopted at birth, I have looked at the influences of both, and "a loner that hates the outside world", I would say that comes from the environment that the child has been raised in, unless there would be a contributing mental health issue that was passed down due to "nature". I have never known anyone like that, but I guess if they were a loner, not many people would know such a person.
It sounds like this would very unhappy person though, and that there would be the possibility of turning it around if the person desired that.
Sometimes one or other or both. My sister and I had the same parents but completely different personalities, like clai and cheese. I have two adult children and one is outgoing and easygoing ,the other complete opposite, so in my life experience it’s more a case of nature. Having said that nurturing can make some inherent personality flaws or propensities worse.
Or maybe they don't "hate the outside world"-- it's just that they're fine being by themself, don't need other people to fulfill them, like or prefer some solitary activities, etc. You start out with a big assumption about introverted people.

I agree . I'm a !oner by nature even as,a little kid I played by myself in my grand parents attic for hours. I would go mad if I didn't have time to myself. But I don't hate the world.
It's mostly nuture but there demon seeds out there. It takes the perfect storm of events for extreme or perverted behavior. Can't explain everything and sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Definitely both. People in this world will screw us over. Whether you keep facing the world or retreat into your shell depends on your innate personality, and that's nature.
It should also be noted that these are the people who are NOT going out of their minds during quarantine because they have to spend time in their houses and aren't around other people constantly. That doesn't sound unhealthy to me.
