Come Closer.

When mid-February hits, I will have been single for a year. Being alone has become a way of life for me. I see people around me having to be attached to someone for affection and attention. I guess I've found the answer to being alone and living with it. Work and hobbies. It's weird how my life went from constant social connection to no connection whatsoever. I alienate, of course. But I like it that way. I ignore, of course. But it's better that way. I've burned a lot of bridges and people around here make me sick to my stomach. They constantly need someone to boost their self esteem, to talk to, to swoon over. No one just looks at their life in a whole and how they feel about it, what they've done, what they're doing, what they'll do next. I'm not saying it's necessary to plan your every move, but having an idea of what's good for your life, present and future, is helpful. People thrive too much on human contact. Granted, one will go insane in course of not having any human contact, but my phone will be inactive for days and it doesn't even phase me anymore. People need to constantly be texting, IMing, emailing, talking, socializing.

When did the world become so dependent on social entities?
