Why is it such a a big battle to be connected with people and then being alone?

[Justneedtokno]

Like one minute, it’s like everyone is pushing you to build community and have people in your life and then one step is oh you need to be able to be alone and sit by yourself but then you cannot grow without having people around so now you’re just sitting and I was just like no point

[hahahmm]

They aren't mutually exclusive... unless you want to be alone 100% of the time, 100% of the year. Otherwise you just schedule time for things.

I don't think I've had this issue before...

are you an introvert? lol

Maybe it's a matter of finding the people who are right for you. Not that I can talk.

Everyone will criticize you no matter what you do.
