I'd Rather Stay Home Alone Than Going Out

What a awkward day,first unexpected visit from company CEO that of course,turned into a meeting,lots of people in the room,couldn't find a reason to escape.Later small party I managed to slip away and finish my shift.Went into a club to see today's route,they were having some kind of meeting as well,walked away.Tried to have a relaxing walk in the park,and a friend I didn't see for 15 years recognized me,good this she asked my name first,casually pretended I'm someone else.Finally home now,my freedom.So tired and exhausted...

I feel like this some days. The feeling of being physically drained from being around people. When I take my lunches at work I try to avoid the break room or places I know I might run into people. It's not that I necessarily dislike people... I just have to have a break where I can be alone. I feel sometime like I have some kind of a social battery, and once I'm out of energy it physically takes a toll on me- like giving up sleep or food to focus on a task. It's doable, but not at all enjoyable .

Indeed,my battery is just a bit smaller.I'm trying to be obliging,but i work better alone,i hate it when people come and just initiate conversation just because they bored,couple that with unexpected social situation and ...well,battery dead.

Wow you must've been really tired to pretend you were someone else to avoid talking to a you haven't seen for 15years!

She was from the village i lived before,was a "friend",neighbor never really hanged out.Some childhood memories came up as soon I saw her,thought to my self,rather not and said I was someone else.
