Title: Most of the time, I don't mind being alone... Post by: AoTFan on June 15, 2016, 03:54:14 AM I mean, I've gotten used to it over the years, and I lot of my hobbies are pretty solo activities, but every now and then, all the solitude gets to me, and I wish I knew more people to interact with. Problem is, so many circumstances in my life make it kind of hard to meet people. At least, meet people that matter. Not a hell of a lot to do around here when you're poor, don't drink, and are agnostic. Then there's all the difficulties I have interacting with people in general. I think basically I'm a pretty friendly person, but, among other things, I have this persistent problem where I say things (often as a joke) and end up either weirding people out or getting them p**sed off at me. (Even been fired a couple of times for it.)
Plus, the older I get, I find the more people are just content to stick with their own pre-established groups, usually their circle of family and friends. And I understand, you got a wife and kids to look after it doesn't leave much time for outside buddies. I don't know.. it just gets to me sometimes.

Post by: Trevor on June 15, 2016, 04:26:41 AM I feel pretty much the same, Mike: I work with lots of people every day, Monday to Friday. most nice, some not and I look forward to the weekends when I can have some me time. I'm not married and am not in a relationship, so aside from Mom calling me almost every day, my phone is silent and the weekends are a little lonely.
When I get that way, I log on here: my family is here. :smile: |
