[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just get up and walk away.[/quote] Same. This is why people wind up alone when they age.[/quote] This is definitely a both sides thing. If you unintentionally choose topics that the people around you don’t find compelling AND if you routinely “just get up and walk away”, you’re likely to wind up alone. Actually, the “ just get up and walk away” crew are probably more likely to end up alone — even before they “age”. [/quote] Nope, the “get up and walk away” people are the same ones who find and make their own families, instead of relying on blood ties. “My people” are my chosen people—some family members, and some friends and neighbors—not the blood relatives or ILs with whom I have virtually nothing in common and who, frankly, are toxic.
