<p>I don't understand why people have a problem with other people choosing to be alone.</p><p><br/></p><p>I feel like there is nothing wrong with choosing to be alone.</p><p><br/></p><p>You could genuinely just enjoy your own company a lot.</p><p><br/></p><p>There simply are choice you cannot make for people.</p><p><br/></p><p>Not everyone who chooses solitude has a problem that needs fixing.</p><p><br/></p><p>If your solitude gives you peace and you're not hurting anyone I don't see the problem. </p><p><br/></p><p>Not everyone needs constant human connection to be happy.</p><p><br/></p><p>We often interpret people's situations through our own needs.</p><p><br/></p><p>Someone who is happiest when around people might not see why another person will be happiest alone.</p><p><br/></p><p>They might interpret it as loneliness, sadness, trauma, arrogance.</p><p><br/></p><p>Sure solitude can be a way to avoid pain and isolation can be very unhealthy.</p><p><br/></p><p>But why do I owe being social to people just so I can prove I have a meaningful existence?</p><p><br/></p><p>I love people but that doesn't mean I want every waking moment to be with them, around them or about them.</p><p><br/></p><p>Why do we find other's behavior as unacceptable just because they don't align with our personal choices?</p><p><br/></p><p>You don't like something doesn't mean the whole world has to bend to not liking it as well.</p><p><br/></p><p>My way of socializing doesn't have to be same as yours, does it?</p><p><br/></p><p>Because you would be unhappy living like that doesn't mean everyone will be😭😭.</p><p><br/></p><p>And please don't tell me "humans are social creatures".</p><p><br/></p><p>Your life doesn't have to require public validation to be deemed meaningful.</p><p><br/></p><p>You don't have to be constantly surrounded by people to be deemed a happy person.</p><p><br/></p><p>You don't have to always defend your personal preference that's why they're personal.</p><p><br/></p><p>And your happiness doesn't have to be visible for it to be real.</p><p><br/></p><p>Sometimes solitude is simply a choice and I think that's okay too.</p>
