Being alone.
Everyone’s talking about a loneliness epidemic and I’m here wishing I had fewer people around me.
Most of them I love, for sure, but the freedom and relaxation of not having anyone around is addicting and I haven’t had a good hit since 2020
You trade me some of your friends and I'll give you some of my alone time, dealio?
Not to brag, but god I love waking up to a clean, quiet, empty house with my dogs every day. I don't understand why people want a spouse or kids.
Me, neither. The peace and quiet is worth more than anything.
There was a solid 18 months where I woke up to a kitty cuddled in my arms and no alarm, no kids, no SO. Just work at some time in a few hours and a purring kitty.
I miss it. Even though I could see my breath in my own bedroom.
Peace is criminally underrated.
