Tbh. I love my GF to death and back, but sometimes it's like can I just get high and play video games lol. I miss a bit of the alone time that I had in my own place.

We have developed a system though because it felt like I never got to be alone.
When we need a day we just tell the other and no issues we just chill in separate rooms doing our own thing. Works pretty well. She has her things going and she lets me do my own thing. Highly recommend.

why do you think telling someone to kill themselves is good or funny when they ask for help being less alone

I think part of it is just having to adjust to having a home completely to myself

I'm spending more time with my friends now that i live in the city and have a more active social life

Might jus take some time

Wholeheartedly agree with all of this fam. Lucky you my gf never leaves me alone

Oh for sure if you just moved.

In 2 months you'll be alot more comfortable.
I would say it's gonna be useful to adjust to because in your late 20's to early 30's those friends might be moving away or busy with their lives/wives/families.

That s*** gets lonely. If you don't have a significant other.

I went through this too. Had to do something to get my mind off being alone either watching a movie or play video games

Yeah it's been just under 2 weeks now so it's all new to me rn

ive always been alone my entire life so thats easy for me. As of missing your parents, you'll stop missing them in 1-2 weeks. Rn Im in college living by myself, no roommates. When I first moved, for 2 days I kinda missed them. Nowadays its whatever. I still visit them and they still visit me. My mom always facetimes me.

I would say she'll grow out of it probably. Idk my chick a bit different like that though tbh, some never do.
But when we were younger the first time we were together I didn't have 5 seconds to myself to piss lmao.

I think we're more mature now and we just can be comfortable at home. She'll watch anime or look at some bullshit on tiktok and I go play 2k or make music.

So it might just be an age timing thing.
After years and years of seeing you at your highest and lowest, she'll probably be able to not need you to be there every second.
My girl has seen it all so she's over the mystique of me at this point lmao

I also started taking classes in hobbies I was interested in or joined clubs

Nah FR

i dealt with this when i stayed in dorms for college a while back, and my bro is dealing with this in his new apt right now

i just talked to my parents all the time to cope, even though i had roommates and our own private rooms, we didn't really know each other

try to decorate it and make it your own space, get some ambience

yeah you’re right, lapse in judgement after only reading the title

I naturally love being alone but it helps I have friends always down to talk/voice chat with online. I know it's not necessarily the same as hanging out together but at least they're there

It's also important to have a hobby to do after work hours, for me it's training bjj

Get a dog

Reading absurdist fiction helps, feels like a person is there

Get a pet

i prefer being alone

or rather i prefer living by myself

if you struggle making friends and are struggling to find an SO maybe that’s different

but if you aren’t interested in doing or don’t need to do either of those things i think you should just make the most of the privacy and peace you get

be creative as possible

It’s been constant hookups for me to fill my lonely void which I know isn’t good but it’s better than falling into boredom traps like doing things in excess like weed, masturbation, or anything else.

You could also find an activity or group to join and do something like a basketball league idk.

I used to be comfortable being alone idk where down the line that’s changed for me.

Get a coffee maker setup and a cozy ass seat/sofa. This combo for chilling at home too potent

he ain’t lying

Did not expect this to be a scratchin thread

rings ur neighbors doorbell at 1am and tell thim u need some company
