Loser?
What do single people do normally? I feel like a loser or like I should be doing something when I'm sitting at home, but what exactly that is, I'm not sure. Surely people who are single don't go out and do things every night, right? I mean it just doesn't seem feasable to believe that singles are ALWAYS out with friends or bumming around or what not. Maybe this is just something I need to get used to?
I feel like all I do is sit on the couch or bum around the house. But is that so wrong? I get so much accomplished and there's always work to be done. Yes, I know, I can't or shouldn't LIVE for my house, but there's just so much to do.
Take today. I worked out, mowed the lawn, trimmed the bushes, weed-killed the weeds, washed the floors, vacuumed, cleaned out cubbies, made chicken for lunches next week...That's a lot. But once it was all done (I was up early mind you) it was like 4pm. And from then on, I did nothing.
This weekend, most of my friends were out of town. But even so, we don't really go out NOR do I have the money to do such things. I dunno. I guess I just feel loserish for not going out and doing stuff...but what is there to do? I don't want to go sit at a bar by myself, so what else is left? If I had money I'd sign up for some kind of class--be it Spanish or self-defense or salsa or whatever.

Free classes...salsa, yoga, whatever floats your boat. I go for hikes or walks and work out a lot. I socialize with friends over cooking a dinner at one of our places. Get on meetup.com and find something that interests you because there's lots of free crap on there. I've been doing lots of that since M and I broke up. I spend 3 nights a week (mostly weekends) home alone. I do tend to bun around a lot, but I also get stuff done. I work on my hobbies - reading, painting, practice guitar, play video games, sewing or knitting. Single time is important but so is time being out in the world.
