I always love reading your posts, they make me so happy. I know I've said this before, but it's still true, so...:D
I've never been able to understand why some people can't handle being on their own, I always feel that they must be really sad and afraid on the inside, because it's really wonderful to be on your own.
That being said, I think it's really important that you also know you must connect with others, that your relationships with others can move you further, help you evolve.
I don't know what trouble your friend is having, but I hope she works it out and I hope it makes her stronger AND happier, in the long term <3
Her husband left, after nearly 30 years of marriage....
I couldn’t handle life if I couldn’t take my “alone” time away from “socializing ”. Sometimes I feel like all of my energie was “stolen” away from me. It can only be refilled when I take time out. I enjoy it!
Oh that must've been horrible, I'm sorry :/ But who knows what the future holds for her? Maybe something brilliant that couldn't have been achieved the way things were...
I know what you mean, I always feel drained after spending time with people, regardless if it's strangers, people I dislike or my closest friends...I love being alone :)
