Do you like being alone at home? / myLot

January 6, 2021 9:36pm CST

I think most of us like our space. It surprises me everytime people ask me if I get bored being alone. Have you also encountered such weird question? Weird because when you are alone you have all the privacy. And it does not mean when you are alone you don't do anything. I think wifehood is a busy profession. And how much more when the wife works from home? I love the privacy and freedom of being alone at daytime. Because my husband arrives in the evening and we are two already in the house

No, I can't never be bored being alone at home. I don't really need to talk or mingle with anyone all the time. Just me and my computer is enough. Oh, my cats too

@Janet357 Yes, I believe people have asked what if I live alone and I tell them I do not. I live with my cat so I am never alone. When I was married I loved the time I had when he was not there and could breathe.

oh, so you were not happy at all with him. I can imagine how happy you are now that you are alone.

@Janet357 We only had moments.where it was fine. I am having other problems and never wanted to get married again and still feel that way. All I want is for my cat and I to have peace and quiet in our lives but we do not have it.

@Janet357 We have worked together during all our life, when we finished working we moved together to our apartments. It's not common to see me home alone.

I'm a total introvert, and love my own space. I actually find being around people, especially a lot of people quite draining and the only way to recharge is to not be around people for a while.

@Janet357 I have been asked that question too. I love being alone at home and I also need it sometimes to unwind. I tend to get a bit irritated if people are around me too much.
