I am a people-person. I like interacting with people and sharing experiences. To me there is no difference between being with one person or 30 or twenty thousand (at a concert or sports event). communal experience is my fave.
I think, because I was a loner (not by choice) for most of my youth, I seek out community more than other people may.
My g/f has had to teach me to appreciate alone time. It was an undertaking.
we live all in our heads anyways, when ti comes right down to it, and sometimes to me, it feels like if an experience is not shared then it may as well have not happened to the outside world , or to put it another way, an experience had alone can be deep and profound and exhilirating, but because it was only experience by the self, it may as well be treated like a dream, or a hallucination. it is something that will only mean anything to the self.
that's not a bad thing or a good thing, but having lived inside my own head for much of my first 18 years of life, it feels somewhat empty.
just ramblin.
I love to read and that is ussually a purely personal alone experience, unless someone is reading out loud.
