Continuation: Maybe It's Better To Be Alone

I'm writing this as sort of a continuation of my last post where I expressed how I was done with high school because no one there noticed me or cared about me. Honestly, I've always had trouble getting along with people. It's not like I have a horrible personality or anything, it just that a lot of people dismiss me because I don't talk much. Everyone wants someone fun and exciting to hang around and that's not me. I'm quiet, I think a lot, and I don't care for shallow relationships.

Being alone was never something that felt wrong to me. When I'm alone in public I feel anxious but when I'm at home I'm at my happiest. No one disturbs me and I'm free to do whatever I want. I gain a lot of energy from being by myself which is why I'm 100% an introvert. I never schedule two tiring social events in a row because I know I can't handle it. Back when I was in a relationship we hung out every day and it had a negative impact on me because I lost that alone time that I desperately needed. I get bugged a lot for not going out but there are very few times when I want to go out. I want to live life to its fullest but I don't think that equals going out all the time. A lot of the time when I'm with people I regret going out because of how excluded I feel. In those cases, I know that I would be happier to be home alone. Honestly, I hate how there's this negative view on being alone. It's what I enjoy and I'm not going to be shamed by it. Even if I don't have much of a social life and I only have one or two true friends, I'm completely happy with that.
