I'll linkg to my standard response of Why I'm not a fan of pair programming. I'm a big fan of working together on problems, and even pairing as necessary, but against this kind of dogmatic idea of always being paired.

Thanks for the comment. Pairing isn't for everybody, which it seems is the point you're conveying in your article and I agree with that. As developers we have habits and ways we like things to be done, and that's fine. Pair programming is something to try and will likely push you out of your comfort zone, and you might even learn something new.
