Unfortunately, I must do all things alone…I’m given no choice/s, in that. I’ve learned to live with most of it, though…but, I do have my bad times, now and then. I’m getting back into reading (mostly afterlife, paranormal, psychology, therapies) and I’m hooked into a great love affair with movies! I live for my movies!

I’m ok with my own company… I do have pals though.
I’ve noticed as I’m getting older I prefer my own company, apart from of course my beloved husbands.
Up until not so long ago I really was a social butterfly, was never in, was always out with friends doing one thing or another but these days i prefer to shut myself away in my craft room. Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy coffees and meals out with my friends but I’m always glad to get home. I don’t know why I’ve changed like that, does it happen to a lot I wonder as we age?
I seem to be shrinking into myself and I’m not sure it’s a good thing or a bad thing?
I tend to feel down a lot these days and I try hard to pick myself up but something always seems to come along and shoot me down again. I’ll keep getting up though, I’m a fighter.
I think it’s the same for most people, life is and can be very difficult for many.

haha, I’ll be there with clogs on 
There are times I’m happy to share with friends but I also often lunch out alone , I’m not embarrassed at all . I’ll go events on my own , pictures and theatre .
I used to go to live gigs alone to see my fav bands , not so much now though .
it doesn’t worry me going to cinema or theatre one my own, I’ve done it and it’s not bad as you have to be quiet anyway lol.
You’ve made me think I should go to see Elton John alone as I really want to see him but no one wants to go with me!!

When it comes to shopping I much prefer to do it alone. I also like to take walks on my own.
I think friends are important & I meet up regularly with mine for lunch or a walk once a week or fortnight.
Cinema/Theatre/Holidays, I’m not so happy going on my own but last year when I wanted to see a film & nobody would come with me, I ventured on my own. It was ok but I’d rather go with somebody.
I took a day trip to Whitby earlier this year on my own. My half sister lives in that area at Saltburn on Sea & I was going to see her. Nobody on the coach spoke to me &I felt they were looking at me. I wouldn’t be happy doing that regularly.
I’d say I’m 50/50 loner/socialiser.
