Random Question: is it weird I don't like pair programming? (lemmy.world)

I've been working in programming for a few years and I think I really dislike Pair Programming; I understand how it is but I often find it mind-numbingly dull. I have a feeling I'm doing it wrong but I feel like as a part of a dev team tasks should be broken into discrete enough chunks that a single person can just blitz through the work... Maybe it's just me, what are y'all thoughts on the matter?
