I’m an introvert, I LOVE that I come home and I either have the place to myself or my fiance is the only person that could be home. Even then, sometimes I go fuck off in the garage after working in a garage all day just to have a bit to unwind. Dealing with people at work all day is so draining I couldn’t imagine having to deal with more people when I get home, but introverts drain around people and extroverts charge or whatever so to each their own!
Oh, I’m an introvert too, but I also suck at being the one to ask friends to do things or go places, so its easier to just have them hanging around at home essentially. But I also have plenty of options for getting away from home, so I don’t feel trapped that way
I miss living in a punk house with five other bastards. There was always something going on and when I was done being social I could just hole up in my room.
Finally have my own place after sharing various living situations for 20 years and it’s glorious to come home to my tiny apartment and only have to deal with my cat.
Downside is, I no longer have friends or go out. My roommates/SOs always made friends and plans for me, so I never really developed those skills, and now I’m too old to crash DIY venues and not be That Weird Old Guy that comes to all of the shows.
I empathise and understand! I’m pretty awkward with people I don’t know, so meeting new ones is a challenge to be honest.
I spent a year and a half living with my closest buddy in an amazing apartment, and it was quite honestly spectacular. Will be moving cities again after summer, and will put in effort to get a good flatmate situation going.
