Loneliness Alert

Alert! When you are staying as a nuclear family, say single pair of husband-wife for long duration, a time comes you start enjoying-loving your privacy and loneliness. And time comes when you don't like any break-breach in that, meaning thereby you start disliking, if not hating, any person around.

    How true! I completely agree with this. Lately with my changed life-style and work-routine, I've learned to live just with myself or with a very small set of close-people that I enjoy with. Anyone outside this group seems like an intruder to me and I have to try very hard to adjust. With this newly adopted life-style (that of enjoying the loneliness) it becomes a little challenging to fulfill obvious social formalities. I really don’t know how good or bad this is, as others may not appreciate the fact; however I really like spending this quality time with myself and makes me feel good.

    I can relate to this more than 100%. And thats why I had posted this article: http://blog.khushbudesai.com/2011/04/all-alone.html.

    Having stayed away from home for more than 5 years, and not being obliged to be a part of any social scenario, now, I have to put in efforts to "fit" into different social groups, especially the ones where I do not enjoy interacting much. Having lived alone has also increased my demands of "personal space". Since I enjoy this space, I do not find anything negative about it, but I do feel that such demands often make one introvert and selective in keep in touch with people. It often becomes difficult when others enter and start dominating this space.

      Dear Khushboo,

      Well, I read your article on Puduchery and responded.
      All I would say is I like loneliness when I am accompanied by persons. And I find it difficult to love the same loneliness when I am alone.
      I think your silence at sea-shore for long time fits in the same concept of company.

      Fuvaji.

    But isn't it difficult to get that loneliness and space when you are with others? Like I had mentioned in my article All Alone, a lot of times, this demand for space in the presence of others is often misinterpreted. For me, this misinterpretation itself becomes an intrusion to your demands of the space.
