re: Do you prefer being alone, or does it make you anxious?

Wife and i are perfectly matched in that we like to be alone. We moved to the boonies for that very reason. People ask if we mind living among the snakes and gators.

We feel that snakes and gators are more preferable than people nowadays and make better neighbors.

I love quiet time. I crave it a lot.

Im an introvert, I prefer not to be surrounded by idiots so I simply avoid the public

I have been confined to my house for medical reasons and when my wife and kids are gone during the day it drives me nuts.

I love being alone. When Mr. CT worked offshore and would be gone for a month at a time, I was in heaven. I could work in my yard all day and not have to worry about cooking.
I have always felt peace in solitude.

And no, no Jody. Why would anyone want another dude around when you just got rid of one?

I enjoy being alone, or at least just the wife and I---and once she starts talking while I'm watching a football game or boxing match, I'd rather be alone.

For some reason, my wife can be alone in the bedroom watching a movie and never say a word, but once she sits next to me on the sofa, it like she can't help herself and starts blabbering about the movie, football game or whatever I'm trying to watch on TV.

Drives me nuts.

When I watch football I like to be alone. And I don't like to be around a lot of people for too long. Im good with just a few people most of the time and alone sometimes including watching football.
