Introverts, do you create windows of solitude throughout your day?

1 Answer

Answer :

Yes. I am lucky; there are plenty of opportunities for solitude for me now that I live alone. I don’t always feel that way in the dead of winter, but right now, I have a great balance between social activities and time alone. Not going out to a walking group meet-up tonight because I just feel like being unscheduled and alone.
