I can only manage the ability to be in the company of a unique individual. Someone who vibes on the same frequency and truly understands me. I guess that's why I better connect with those online. Well some people, that is. Otherwise, leave me alone & let me be happy...

I have always needed space, my time to reflect and be alone. Even when I was a child. I often feel my energy drained, and that exhausts me mentally and physically. "My time" is for recharging. I like being in nature, sometimes listening to music, other times the birds. I also enjoy taking the time to sit and read. That relaxes me too. I do not like being around crowds; much more at ease on my own.
@JerseyGal I've been the same way since childhood. I was always wise before my age so to speak, and never really felt at ease unless I was alone with my music and/or in nature. Later in life, I finaally realized that ache in my chest and belly was actually anxiety. 😩
I tried to be the life of the party at one point, as it was seemingly expected of me because I can be extremely funny, but I was miserable. I kinda pushed most people away and I'm much happier with nil to none in my life.😌🤭
