So twice this week I've had people question my social habits... The first being my aunt who I called this week - I think she's worried that I don't have loads of friends / a partner. The second being a friend on Facebook who asked when I was going to get myself a man...
I think I'm a bit of an introvert. I like meeting people but I can't really do the small talk thing - I never know what to say. Get me started on a subject I like & I will talk - its just the starting of a conversation that I battle with. Also at times I just want to be alone - to do my own thing & have me time. I'm never bored - I always find something to do - whether its going to the gym, reading, watching tv, going to the cinema, getting out & about or entering competitions. I hardly ever feel like I have to HAVE someone around although at times I'd like to have someone around.
The thing is - I'm happy with my life. I remember a few years ago when I was terrified of being on my own - it doesn't scare me anymore. I'd rather be alone than have people around that I don't really get along with or who are very negative - I'm quite sensitive to emotions and when I have negativity or hate thrown at me it brings me down - I literally want to run away. I guess I've grown more choosy of who I let into my life. I think I summed it up best in the reply to my Facebook friend's comment of 'Find a man':
I like my own company & I'm happy so its going to take someone pretty special to share my life.
