I don't have much experience living alone. I got a small taste of it when my roommate got sick a couple months ago and went home for a few weeks. It made me realize how much we did together, but also just how nice it was to have someone else there even if we weren't always socializing every minute. Coming back to an empty dorm knowing he wasn't going to be there was honestly a bit depressing. Maybe I would be able to live alone at a later age, but at this point in my life, I think just living with one other person is a requirement.

Although I was part of a small family growing up, my brother was almost 10 years older than I am, and he left home when I was 8. My father was always gone, either working or traveling, and my mother didn't like me to bother her. She liked to watch her soaps. So from age 8 onward it was like living alone with possibly an hour a day of human interaction.

I live alone now, and I am very grateful and happy to be alone again...finally.
