Times of Solitude

I must admit that I'm more solitary than I am social. I like to go out and spend time with my friends a few times each month, but a lot of the time I crave solitude and the freedom to just do my own thing. I wouldn't want to be a complete recluse, but there's definitely a hard limit to how much social time I can tolerate.

I have a lot of interests which are basically solitary pursuits. Either they only work for one person, or I'm the only person I know who takes any interest in that kind of thing. It's somewhat lonely, I rather wish I had some more friends who share my interests.

The exception to all of the above is my girlfriend though. Somehow I never feel the urge to be alone instead of being with her, no matter how much we hang out. She shares my interests, which helps. She's the only one who really does.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
