[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. One year of living alone after a difficult relationship is just healing, OP, and you need it. But it doesn't mean that companionship is over-rated. I think it's under-rated, actually. We need [b]meaningful human connections[/b] to keep us from lacking empathy... the opposite of what one billionaire thinks. But those connections don't necessarily have to be romantic, and they don't necessarily mean you need to share your private spaces. Broaden your mind.[/quote]

How many people are capable of that? We are a depressed and anxious society. Every other person is on anti depressing or anti anxiety pill. [/quote]

Are you of the opinion that depressed and anxious people can't make meaningful human connections? My best friend has been depressed all her life and is on meds for it. She's a wonderful friend. I have severe anxiety but by all accounts, I'm a kind and sympathetic listener and a good friend and parent.

Maybe you need to educate yourself.
