    Well, true. But in the end, we’re a social species after all. There might be a huge range of level of desire to, but it’s probably always above an absolute zero. If the social circle is an amount of persons to the count of 1, it still is a cirlcle. Called a point. But that soooooooooooooooooooooooo much depends on the kind of people, so it’s probably converging to zero.

      Oh yeah. I remember being 18 and having literally no one, no way of having anyone, and wanting to die.

      My best friend (and only close friend) died in a car accident when I was 16.

      I nearly went insane. I remember after going 8 months talking to no one (when the locals thought they had hung around and comforted me enough) bawling my eyes out and begging the universe to let me meet at least one person I related to enough to have a 10 minute connection.

      When I get overwhelmed with my little family and think, “I’d kill to be alone.” I think back to that time and try to be grateful for what I have.

      My fiancé has me so mad I can’t see straight right now and I’m trying hard to remember that I’m so thankful for her and the kids. :p

      It’s just a moment. She’ll at least like me tomorrow haha. Even if nothing I do is enough tonight.
