My boys are like that, got loads of mates and always surrounded by them. Totally opposite to me. I told them I was going to get a job when I retire, somewhere like B&Q, coz I like to work. They were pissing themselves laughing and "you cant stand people, you're not a people person" stuff thrown back at me. Good points I thought!
I think by nature we are designed to have alone time...it's when we delve into ourselves...it's essential...like meditating.
Deffo jasper. After work, sometimes my closest sister phones me but if i'm tired i will tell her i'm tired and she'll know to leave me alone. Generally going home time means netflix/tv series/films on the train/tube. I could happily sit in my house all day, playing computer games and watching the footie and not go out. If i do go out, i can only do like 2 days on a trot before i'm tired and can't be bothered. Dunno if that's age or just me being socialled out. Generally don't like making small talk and will only make it back if i'm engaged but generally can't be arsed unless (you can tell if you will get one with someone). If i'm tired, theres definitely 0 small talk. I'm more than happy to sit in silence and stare at the phone lol.
I'm spending too much time in my own at the minute. Its not necessarily good for the soul or the mind when you've got a problem like mine. Not starting my 3rd and final course of pre-opp chemo seriously mind-****ed me on Monday. Was very emotional! And all it was is a week's delay!! Thats all. Nothing!! Head's screwed back on now. What I do miss at the minute is being able to drive to the village pub after work for a couple of beers with the lads. Got that to look forward to after Christmas!
Yeah I get that....sometimes we are in need of company...I'm the same . At other times I'm so comfortable just being on my own.
Find a good woman? You've got more chance of winning a quadruple roll-over lottery jackpot without buying a ticket.
I’ve got a houseful of in-laws til next Monday. I will cook for them, they will consume a lot of food and drink paid for by me, I will generally be in the way in my own home and I will let them take over the place. At some point I will be a bit quiet and/or find a quiet corner to read a book and the womenfolk will chatter away about what a miserable, anti social bastard I am.
