What is life like living on your own ?

What is life like living on your own ?

  1. "You need a companion for your life to feel whole and normal (plus time with friends and family here and there)
  2. You enjoy your own company, thank you very much (plus time with friends and family here and there)
Most people, at least from my non-scientific anecdotal experience, fall into category #1. Humans are social animals, after all. Me, I am, after much trial, error, and self-reflection, in the second category. So is my mom, so I guess I get it honest.
I prefer life on my own. Not that I don’t enjoy the company of other people and not that I haven’t given a good go at relationships but, in the end, it turns out I’m best left to my own devices. When you start to have feelings of resentment towards your partner for how much of ‘your time’ they take up, that’s not a healthy thing and you need to admit that they’re better off without you. And vice versa. It sounds terrible, but there it is."

  1. I'm not really sure what this is about, but I'm guessing that the numbered list at the top suggests that people fall into one of those two categories. It's interesting to know how your satisfaction of living on your own depends on your personality.

  2. I agree with you when you said that most people fall into category one, what people aspire to have is a family, a home, and other things. I think that it is interesting that you fall under the second category. It’s a good thing that you enjoy your own company
