    It brings the feeling that most people flat out never know, the feeling of being alone in a crowded room. It's something I feel everyday when going to wardroom events (work events in the military). I had a friend discover what that feeling was after coming back from deployment, and watching how it changed him was something else. Brought us much closer as friends.

    When I was a kid my family moved constantly. No sooner that I would make a friend then we’d move. I quickly learned that having friends wasn’t worth it and so I learned to become my own best friend, for better or worse lol. As an adult, however, I looked back to High School and realized that one or five friends that are solid is far better than a hundred who know your name but are superficial. Currently I have one friend. I’m happy with that. I know when shit’s going to hell, he’ll be right there with me, ready to fight if need be. I chose my wife the same way: we been married 23 years, some of which were VERY rough years and I can say with complete confidence that she’ll jump in the trenches with me and fight. That’s two people in my life that I know I can count on, and that’s all I need. I love being alone… but I love being with my family and friend.

I learned to be alone. And it was ok. Today I am a born again Christian. Today I am still alone but not lonely. I also know Jesus. And he does not want his child to be alone. Therefor my fellowship with like minded Christian’s is very important. My relationship with my Father in heaven is very important. I realize that I never was alone. I like me I like being me. I can do anything and go anywhere and not depend on another human for my happiness. I know true happiness is pursuing Christ and his will for my life. I have found unconditional love. A love that is not found on earth. I’m not alone anymore. That’s true freedom.

    "Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one," really resonates with me, because as someone who is a walking gray area between macho jock and soy boy? It annoys me to constantly hear about what a man should be from "masculinity coaches" who are really just grifters preying on insecure sorts who need a role model. I don't need that noise in my life; I'm just the best me I can be every day. If people like it, good, if not, that's on them for not being able to appreciate someone who is his own man. Something I strive for daily.

    I spent my entire life alone. I thought that after a while when I stopped wishing for friends that I was finally fine, therefor I was happy. I couldn’t have been more wrong. It’s true that I was fine being alone, that I could live with it. But after finally finding that group of people that understand who I am and actively cares about my well-being, I’ve learned that “happiness,” being happy, is so much more than being okay. It took me experiencing true and unfathomable happiness to realize I’d never felt this way in my life before this. I wish I had learned to reach out sooner. So much time being fine, I could have had so much more. But, the past is the past, I’m just happy I get to experience this beautiful feeling in the present. Better late than never, I’d say.

    I worked at a company where the owner loved having social events now and again. Myself and a coworker I worked with in an office space of three, tended to not like "social events". Myself mainly because I liked very few at this company as they were truly all selfish and clung to a job they only got paid well for for being the buddies of the owner. One admitted to me once that they only befriended the owner because he treated him to sports events, concerts bars and food etc. on their off time and that he wouldn't have that at another job so he pretends to be the owners friend. I was discussed as it's how the others treated the job as well. Only two of us didn't participate in that and we were always criticized for not wanting to "hang" out for the company BBQ or after work drinks. I prefer my own company and what I'm doing rather than time with the fakes

    Marcus Aurelius' quote, "Ask yourself at all times, "is this necessary?" is an interesting one. I find that understanding and wisdom may be garnered by performing perceptively unnecessary things just because they are possible. Necessity infers the application of a function or utility. The formerly unnecessary ventures our species has taken for the sake of curiosity has transformed our understanding of the cosmos and our place in it. There was a man who once claimed that he had no special talent, that he was just passionately curious and his pursuit of discovery and wonder granted us first, special, then general relativity. That man's name is Albert Einstein.

They know you have not settled for anyone and it makes them feel like their position is in danger. They know you DGAF and feel like their place isn't set.
