My secret dream of living alone

I also like being alone and just interacting with people once in a while. Am thinking that's part of being an introvert and I find it normal and comfortable.

@yoalldudes ~I prefer living alone, people wise anyway. I'm happy with my dog and cat. Before she passed away, my wife and I were separated for three years. We had been separated on and off through most of our marriage. We loved each other but couldn't live together. She use to worry about me finding someone else. I told her that I prefer being alone. I can engage in conversation on social media and occasionally go out to eat or to the casino with my niece. Other than that, I love being by myself.

Are you an introvert? I am, and that's something I frequently find myself wishing for. Being around people is okay in moderation, but being able to retreat to one's own space and get away from it all is a real blessing sometimes. People are exhausting.

It happens with me as well but I feel distraction is the one cause so you need to change your thought process and find the lack in you,the way to know yourself may make you happy forever

There is nothing wrong or strange about that. If it is a yearning go for it! Living in solitude allows us to work on our inner self, discover ourself and be ourself. It will help us discover our strengths and weaknesses. Maybe it is the yearning of your soul to want to "Know Thyself" before bringing someone else permanently into your life.

I am living alone here in Baguio City, far away from my family

It depends on my mood too, a lot of times i wanted to try and see how to live alone, how to be free and just think about myself. But more than my wanting to be independent i worry about my mom and how she would be left alone with my brother who is not very responsible himself.

With an internet connection one is rarely alone

I experienced living alone before in a condo, after my sister-in-law went to Australia to live with her boyfriend. I felt lonely. So, I resigned and went home here in the province where my husband and daughter were.

what zodiac sign would that be?

Scrolling through the comment I see that your sign is Virgo, I have a friend who is Virgo and my sister in-law was also Virgo and they both do not like to live alone. I think that it's not something that comes from your sign. Greta Garbo wanted to be left alone because she did not want to show her face getting old.

i guess i am destined to live in our ancestral home with my son and my only sister.

@yoalldudes I think a majority of people think about this. I know I surely do. But I also know I do because I've never experience living alone before and would like to try it. I would also get bored or lonely at times but I would still like to know what it's like to have my very own space with nothing but my own items.

The disadvantages about living alone is that I pay all the bills and cook my own food. Why I love it is because no one can tell you what to do and how you do it. The peace and quiet is serene. I can sleep all day during day offs. I can leave and come home anytime. It really depends on you on how disciplined and responsible you are to survive being home alone.

Why don't you try it then? I tried living alone and in another country for 6 months. It was liberating. I learned a lot from that since I was never away from home for that far without my family or without the maids doing everything for me. But I don't wish to do it anymore. It's enough that I've experienced it once.

go somweher for our better live and experience is very good and important things for us, the youngers

I have been married for 36 years and love every minute of it. I also lived alone for 10 years. I don't mind living alone. I am an empath and being around a lot of people is very trying and can sometimes be overwhelming. I like spending time with family and friends, but at the end of the day when all is said and done I prefer to just be at home with my son and husband. When I lived alone I didn't mind visitors, but I didn't want them around all the time. I don't think it has anything to do with the zodiac because I am a cancer.

Funny, I am a Virgo as well and did not much mind living alone when I did.

It's fine to have this feeling sometimes. It's common one. Some solitude time gives time to understand what you actually want from your life.

I looove my family so much, but yes, it feels good to be alone sometimes too.
