[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I was worried people were going to tell me I'm terrible. I'm so glad to have found some kindred spirits. I think I've spent my whole life feeling like I'm supposed to be social, make friends, go out, etc. I turn 50 soon and I think I've just realized it is not what makes me happy. I have always been a fan of Mary Oliver's poetry and recently I've been thinking a lot about her lifestyle, which involved a lot of solitude, time in nature, and just focusing on her work which necessitated being alone a lot. She had a partner for over 40 years so she wasn't totally alone, and certainly she worked with others at times and had friends, but it sounds like she was mostly just a solitary person. I think that is the truest representation of what I want. It does not feel possible now with my kid the age she is, but I'd like to start working towards it.[/quote]
