I understand what you’re saying, but generally speaking, your partner shouldn’t hold cards against you. It’s a RELATIONSHIP. You’re two that mold into one. Why would you need to have any defenses when you’re working with someone who is on your side? The point of the relationship to begin with is to let down your defenses and be vulnerable with another.

Garbage Fries - That sounds lovely on a greeting card, but reality is much harsher. My intentions are not to ridicule here but you absolutely need to have resilience and defenses in place to protect your mental and emotional state where your partner is concerned. Take affairs for example. An affair is one of the most traumatic emotional experiences a human being can go through with a lot of experts saying only death of a spouse comes first. I was listening to a pod cast where an Iraqi war vet claimed he would go back to Iraq 100 times more than finding out again his wife cheated on him. That’s absolutely insane. No one should have that much control over you. The people that say that’s why you shouldn’t marry someone that would cheat, or say I would NEVER do that are the most susceptible to trauma. You’re creating your own reality. A hyper false-sense of security and trust in another human being that simply is not possible. People that don’t understand these things completely take the lazy way out and judge and dismiss. Lives are destroyed, children are hurt, all because of bullshit and not enough education and practicality.

I helped a friend finish his basement a few years back. He was sort of a newlywed, had been married maybe 18 months or so...after we loaded some drywall into a trailer, he wanted to stop by a bar and have a drink. His wife called him and asked where he was and he said we were still at Home Depot getting materials. He looked so at peace and relaxed just being in that bar and enjoying his beer even though he had only been married for such a short period of time. That's really stuck in my mind since it happened and it fits into this conversation in the sense that most of us would like to have a partner but a lot of us would like to balance that time with our own time. Hard to have that conversation with the other person though because undoubtedly they will take it personally and not understand that you do not want to be with them 100% of the time. First world problems maybe.

After being in a relationship for 14 years, I have now been alone for about 8. It’s weird that people don’t like being alone. I work a full-time job so I crave and treasure my alone time. I find when I am alone I have become super creative creating things like song lyrics without even trying. Also you really find out what you enjoy and like because no one is influencing you or telling you. It’s kind of sad but I see people that have never been alone, they went straight from living with parents, college roommates, etc. into marriage and then had kids. So their entire life revolves around reacting or doing what is needed to provide for and please others. They never really develop their own identity and are being influenced by others 24/7. I often have stuff that needs to get done on the weekends like anyone else but sometimes just have no plan days where I just wake up an am like what do I want to explore today. If you don’t have days like that alone you are truly missing out. Take care. 🙂

Same, in the middle of learning rn. Last relationship was a good one but we became codependent and called it quits. Been in the journey of self discovery and it’s been a b**ch

I was already comfortable being alone but since the pandemic I’m so used to it now. Humans are so adaptable

I have people freaking out all the time when I say I go out to dinner or movies by myself. Feels comfortable to me. I love traveling alone. Makes decision making much easier:)

Other human beings have been the source of all of my stress, anxiety, insecurity, and every other negative experience I've had. Being alone is essential for my own well being. I saw my brother after years of no contact, and the first thing he opened his mouth to do was criticize and spread gossip. Felt nothing but negative emotions the whole time he was standing there. He left his phone number and I couldn't tell you the first 3 digits because I never even looked at it. Why would I call somebody like that? A lot of my alone time is spent thinking about past interactions like that and where those emotions stem from. They're all from people. It's the time alone where I've learned confidence, pride, focus, and perseverance. People try to rob you of those qualities, especially when you are not grounded in your identity yet. I can't really identify being alone with the stereotypical effects like depression and mental illness after my experiences with others. It's been the exact opposite.

Imagine the implications of a world where, as these types suggest...all other people have absolute control over what i feel like and when i will feel it.... total horseshit.... and a very common and sly method of not ever having to learn enough proper self-discipline and control of one's own mind and thought patterns, and just go around blaming everyone else for "making us feel..." some way or other.....nah buddy, you're the only one with that power over your own shit...it is no one elses responsiblity on this Earth how You feel or dont feel.....get a fucking grip and take ownership of that which is your own creation.

I've been a loner my entire life. I've always hated going to events where there is a lot of people. I feel crowded in and I have no interest in small talk. I have 3 really good friends that I keep in touch with, but I can go for months without wanting to be around anyone other than my wife and kids. Even then, I have to have alone time every day. Running helps a lot. I can go for really long runs, clear the head and come back refreshed. I get that our society thinks being quiet and living by myself is some sort of defect. I find people who are constantly talking really boring and intrusive.

I spent a lot of time alone , in isolated situations, it was hard but I learnt a lot and it made me realise that all this social media and all the noise is meaningless

I have found resting comfortably listening to Shamonic Drums, with wolves howling in the background. Very pleasant and calming.

When you stop searching, you find peace.

Right now I live alone AND work from home. At times I love it - at times it's difficult. Being comfortable with yourself is a lifelong relationship - always evolving. But when you learn how to do it there is a certain peace that many people never have the privilege of knowing!

I do an hour and a half everyday and I celebrate the positive affect this has had on my life. I love the title of this talk! I used to freak out if I was ever alone, now some of the deepest experiences of love I have are when I'm alone! Really like this clip. Thank you!!!

Loneliness and being alone are two completely different feelings,if you can master the latter you have nailed life.

I've mastered the art of enjoying solitude since I was a kid. Nothing feels better spending the whole day home after day or two being with friends.

JRE, I would love to see you do an extended interview with someone who really practices solitude, because it's something more of us need to understand and work with. A lot of single people are depressed about being single rather than embracing the life they have and making the most of it. Not just 30 minutes a day while meditating, but someone whose life is mostly about navigating solitude. There are millions of us, and it can be pretty rough if you don't take a spiritual/philosophical approach to it.

I'm turning 40 in a few weeks. I've been alone for years and I've reached the stage where I'm OK with it. I have nothing against relationships or kids but I'm not going to be one of those men who just get married because they hate being alone. Other people seem to have a real problem with how I live and constantly give be grief over it. Jibes about being single because "I can't get a girlfriend". Then I look at them and think how happy I am that I'm not like them. Most of them aren't even happy in their relationships but just can't handle looking after themselves. I pity them, sometimes.

Its true, I love being alone and definitely a superpower, while others would assume I'm lonely or just weird, im so ok with what others may assume, because I know its a super skill to be able to switch off and connect with myself and be in the present moment, I value myself thats the key 🔑

@D D Why do you think that that is too much stimulation? What do you mean by stimulation? For me, being open for 1/4th of the time and being introspective and thoughtful for the rest is the way to lead my life. If there is one fundamental that I have learned that I can relate to, it is the belief that people have subjective realities and that it is impossible for humans, atleast with the tools (internal and external) that we currently possess to know the objective truth. For many, Truth is an ideal of reason. According to Kant, happiness is an ideal of the imagination not of reason. Thus there is a direct contradiction. The happy person is the one who 'accepts' that truth as being subjective and lives life on his terms, values, desires and goals. He commits to his own purpose. If there were God or a being of similar nature, believing that we are even close to him in almost any context or that we can be like him, would eventually lead to an existential crisis. Rather, we must believe that we are our own Gods, which is definitely dangerous but it holds a handsome reward in itself.
