I really feel like I identify with Stephen Fry’s most recent article found here:
http://www.stephenfry.com/2013/06/24/only-the-lonely/
Particularly the line:
I don’t want to be alone, but I want to be left alone.
I feel this way almost constantly, and I’m uncertain of what the answer could possibly be. I enjoy being around people, but I want to be the decider for where my time is spent. Is there a situation where that works with others? Of course not.
Is it introversion or something much greater?
Not sure.
