I always feel that with social species (i.e. rabbits, dogs, guinea pigs, etc.) it is good to have a companion of the same species. Imagine living your entire life without another human being who knows your body language and vocalizations intuitively. Of course, there are always exceptions in that a certain bunny might not tolerate any rabbits. I took in my previous rabbit, Ruby, by herself and had her for a good few months before I adopted a male friend for her. Ruby was very much so bonded to me...lots of licks and snuggles. After an arduous bonding process, she and Smitty lived quite happily together. Ruby did show a special interest in Smitty and vice versa but she still was affectionate towards me. She was much happier to have another rabbit around and I felt better knowing that even though I spent a lot of time with her, she had a bunny buddy to pal around with when I wasn't there. You might want to consider getting a second rabbit and bonding them. As a side note, Smitty was a little standoffish at first towards me but it was so interesting seeing him warm up to me. Good luck!
