The worst part is when you both feel lonely and have no social energy, so you just have to sit there and stew in your own misery.
Also: this is my comment #69, so I am now fulfilling my contractual obligation to draw attention to it.

I do not get lonely ever. I only sometimes miss particular people. But having other people as substitution would not relieve me missing those people.
I lucked into a balance.
WFH, so I miss the social interaction. But hell, I WFH, so I got that going for me.
My wife works at a hotel, mostly gone during my workday. She gets human interaction, but leaves me the hell alone when I need it.
She works Saturday, so I go to my camp in the swamp and act a fool all alone. She's off Sunday, so we can be together Saturday night and all day Sunday.
That sounds wonderful, all the best to you and your (I assume extroverted) wife!
Trying to tell us something, ickplant? You good?
Best wishes.
Maaaaybe....
All joking aside, I'm probably the least lonely I've been in my whole life right now (husband, kid, dogs, friends, job that deals with people, etc.) But I've definitely been lonely before, and it sucked. Being alone, though? Fucking love it. Spent most of today alone, and I'm in heaven.
I appreciate you asking :)
Glad you're finding balance. It can be difficult.
Indeed, especially in today's world. I hope you're finding balance too, friend.
