People often tell me I need to go out more and meet more people, and that it would be good for me to have a job where I would meet lots of people. (I work at home, alone)
I am not comfortable in big groups (which would be a group of 3 people or more....) and I don't WANT to "get used to being around people" as people often say I need to do.
It's like socializing is THE answer to all my problems, but for me it's the opposite. I want to be able to chose when and where I want to socialize, and not being pushed into something that I don't want or need.
Why do I have to socialize if I'm comfortable alone? (I talk to you guys all the time, don't I? *s*)
I just moved far away from all my friends and family, and I am happy being in a place where nobody knows me. I really think I need time alone and away from people, but nobody seem to understand me (except for my lovely husband who gives me all the privacy I need).
It's not like I never ever see anyone, and I have been a lot more sociable than I am right now. I just want some peace and quiet..... for a year or so!
Am I very unhealthy to think this way? Any comments?
