People are both great and massive bitches. I flip flop between this question myself a lot and I ultimately think it's best to just have a middle ground.
no
its cool to be able to do things by yourself but its impossible to survive all alone
we are social animals

no bc my family is what keeps me happy
I've been asking myself this for a long time, but it's not a question I know the answer to. I guess it doesn't matter much now.
hard to determine that. probably not, because my refusal to defy my own stagnant inertia results in terrible outcomes of self-neglect. it's extremely easy to sabotage myself by disengaging with the world, and i then suffer for it through my failure to uphold a responsibility that would've sustained me or other people
so
no, but not necessarily because i crave to be with people, moreso because people are in some way a grounding feature that keep me physically alive when otherwise i would let myself rot and suffer medical consequences for it. i don't think i'd be surprised if i had damaged organs in the future :/
living with a roommate seems a little worrying, either because they could be rather cold/bitter or overwhelming/demanding, or also because i might be too irresponsibly passive and inhibited, but a roommate could just as well be what i'd need in order to learn to function for myself in the future

Considering I learn from other people, the answer is definitely no.
I much rather enjoy my personal space, but that isn't always.

it would be cool being independent but i would have a tough time without anyone soooooo no

I have to say though it's infinitely better to struggle alone than to live with people who make your life miserable.
Having someone good who takes care of me would be nice.
i agree, sometimes being dependent on or subjected to people that harm or vex you would even make you even less functional as you develop maladaptive practices to cope with those situations :cKarmine wrote:

there's an interesting faint gravitational allure to being taken care of, almost as though a pet or conventional princess, but it's also not really something realistically feasible or healthy for either party
We all need help, so no
