I have always been fairly alright in my own company. Most of the time since the mid-2000s at any rate. However, I felt isolated for a bit during the lockdown. It was odd for me not seeing co-workers or even clients.
During “normal” times, I was guaranteed at least one, maybe two trips to clients during any calendar month. Then suddenly nothing.
I am not the type to reach out to friends for a visit or a coffee. I could be burdening them. Like I am being a nuisance, needing company.
The times we did get together with friends, I will post-mortem the visit for days after trying to figure out if maybe I had offended anyone.
The other thing I have noticed is that with some people I can chat via text for ages, quite easily. Others not so much. Others I do well chatting to on Skype, and yet others I need to see in person to have a decent conversation.
The oddity that is my brain.
