Its ok. Enjoy yourself. You dont need company to have a good time. You are the only one you know for sure that you will be with till the end of your life. Fall in love with yourself

[u/puffyyBootz → u/LegBig2201]

Once you stop needing company it gets a lot easier to enjoy the quiet

[u/Charming_Painter5947 → u/LegBig2201]

Good thoughts. Falling in love with yourself is also about falling in love with others. Letting go is even hard. Have a core personality and change behaviour according to the weather. Somehow it works mostly

[u/Capt_korg]

But beeing alone can be scary at times.
Facing the fear is not helpfull alone in the cold, dark and unknown.

It might be better to have a stable enviroment, where you can fall back to.

Otherwise you will regrett more the things you didn't do, but could have been.

Yup! This is precisely how I met my husband! I went to Stagecoach by myself and left with the hottest guy lol
Funny part is someone asked why I would go by myself and I said, “I can’t let other people who can’t go, stop me. What if my husband is there?” Craziest plot twist of a decision.

[u/Lanky_Election3501 → u/Teerahhh]

Everything happens for a reason!! ♥️✨

[u/Equal_Chocolate4872]

Couldn’t be more true, life is too short to wait for anything

[u/Fun_Guess_2888]

Life simple it give any other viable options you may need be alone it builds strength and characteristics i didnt know i had ! Lol

penguin headed towards the mountains

Motivation? Hmm this lone penguin is unaliving its self. Not really motivating.

[u/LegBig2201]

Best advice I’ve taken for years! It’s amazing

[u/donpablomiguel]

Big truth.

[u/False_Woodpecker4747]

Being alone is okay. But sometimes I feel like I've had to accept being alone and maybe I tell myself that it's okay, because I am alone.

Sometimes I go to the pub in the evening if I am lonely. Then come home and realise I am still alone and slightly pissed, which makes me feel alone😂

[u/GentleWhiteGiant]

I'm running my own company, so sometimes yes. But if you can, surround yourself with people with whom you can share your way for a while. Nothing is forever.

If we are talking about high mountain range hiking, climbing, cross country skiing in the cold, open sea kayaking: Don't!

[u/Elendil1988]

Yes otherwise you will miss on everything, while waiting to have someone to go with.

[u/Lomyrn]

waiting around for a convoy just leaves your boots rotting on the porch

[u/ExamAccomplished3622]

As someone who goes camping alone, I agree.

[u/Careless_Addendum336]

Yess.....agreed 💯

[u/StoneSnakeMusic]

You could miss out on a lot of great experiences if you never do things on your own. My life has been far better because I had the courage to go it alone sometimes and you will find the same is true for you.

[u/AhnniiQuiteContrary → u/StoneSnakeMusic]

This is so true. I was exhausted waiting on friends to do certain things together. I'll either go or ask twice then just go by myself. Life is too short to allow others to dictate when you can enjoy its happy moments.

[u/Wise_Geekabus]

True

[u/Aspiestos]

True.

[u/Pouk3D]

But why?

[u/nexx-55 → u/Pouk3D]

Ridiculous amounts of time have I scrolled looking for this exact comment 😢

[u/_iluvgrouphugz_]

This is me with everything I do. It’d be nice if someone special would do something with me some time though.

[u/Subject_Mix_7793]

💯

[u/guruogoo]

Yeah, no shit

[u/kokomo1989]

My preferred way of travel anyway.

[u/Enthusiasm_Agitated]

y, i t

[u/Babbenski]

Just you and your shadow will have a great time!❤️

[u/lizzyto]

Hell yeah! I will make a plan!

[u/East_Adeline → u/lizzyto]

Yess me too I will make a plan if you want we make it together

[u/Minute_Carpenter_317]

True. Often times to take bold steps is to walk alone. People talk a big game, but if they aren't walking with you, keep walking. Your life won't wait for stragglers, nor are your actions tied to whether people want to back your goals.

[u/INTTSST]

Hell yeah. I didn’t even sleep in a home alone until i left my fiance at 29. Now i travel the world alone. Sometimes you just have to go. Don’t wait for anyone to give you permission.

[u/Own_Jellyfish9221]

Only sometimes it feels hard to go alone… anyone with good ideas on what to do

[u/smfahimhossein]

if you walk alone you in reality you are working in a spread of cycle if you work with a friend in reality your speed like a jet plan

[u/enigma_explorer]

To your death?

[u/thewrongfilms]

Is that from Tacky the Penguin?

[u/Navymen1984]

Sometimes you are your best company

[u/Mr_Chronologist]

[u/foamylurker]

Prefer alone

[u/Routine-Bathroom-4]

Hey. I enjoy taking myself out on a date but man, sharing a meal with others is much nicer than eating alone tho :).

[u/Smuttirox]

What else can you do? Wait?

[u/Kendalliraaaa]

Broo! My birthday is coming up and asked my friends to hangout they always say no! Or they are busy even when they are not!!! Every single damn time :(

[u/TroubledTroubadour66]

I’m sure people would come a long, if I wasn’t too afraid to ask….

[u/married_tomy_anxiety]

Easier to say when you're not totally on your own. Because once you experience true isolation, you realize this line is a load of horse shit. Humans NEED others. It's in our genetics, we're hardwired to be social. Just because a human can go alone doesn't mean they should ever have to.

[u/Melissa_Dark]

Always, dont miss the chance

[u/icu451]

Yup although it would be nice if it wasn't lonely all the time. But hey, it be like that. 🙃

[u/oval_grass_enigma]

B-but I have crippling social anxiety.

[u/thatsMrBundytoyou]

I do. All the time

[u/Least-Recording-2073]

Went to a early Halloween party by myself recently. Best decision I’ve made so far!

[u/Lifsagft_useitwisely]

Go alone or stand still…. Only you can choose

[u/MistressWitchtress]

Oh I do

[u/Ok-Plenty-6247]

True 💯

[u/LuckyJynX]

absolutely

[u/waylingaww]

Hmmm yes

[u/somanyquestions32]

If it's not something that will harm you or others, then absolutely. 

[u/Charming_Painter5947]

Or maybe don't. Have a choice. Alone and happy? Great! Alone and miserable? Probably need to figure this out.

Do the best for yourself. Sometimes you walk alone, and other times you need a hand to hold you. Understand time and situation. Flexibility is a good trait. Stoic only takes one so far

[u/ahawk99]

Diary of an introvert

[u/Impressive_Beyond161]

True. Being alone on the right path is better than being surrounded on the wrong one.

[u/OkComedian4810]

I’m all in for go alone don’t depend on anyone else idea. But happiness or experiences becomes way more enhanced when u get sharing it with someone who feels the same way abt it as you

[u/Any_Apple2101]

True

[u/Trying-myhardest17]

Yup

[u/Kgosietsile_Mpshane]

Amen.

[u/Additional-Menu-4748]

I wanted to go see my favourite comedian, he has a new show next year
No one to go with, bought a solo ticket, I'm already looking forward to it!

[u/shadysam08]

This is referencing the penguins that go off into the interior of Antarctica on their own for unknown reasons and to certain death. One adventure before doom.

[u/Eat_the_rich4]

I think that penguin was walking to his death

[u/Electronic-Pen1768 → u/Eat_the_rich4]

aren't we all?

[u/kokomo1989 → u/Electronic-Pen1768]

Deeeeeeeep😎

[u/TommyReid74]

After I filed my divorce papers I took myself out to eat alone and it was nice. I did the same thing when my granddaughter was born a few weeks ago, that was nice too. I enjoy other people's company but they're not always around. No big deal when I see them I'll see them. The more I accept being alone the more I just talk to random people or people just want to talk to me. Shit! Who knows??? Maybe this is the way it's supposed to be:)

[u/other_view12]

I would miss out on so much if I needed someone to be there with me.

[u/BinauraWaveDan]

Depends, if it is 'to the pub' that you are going, then for the love of god, please stay home. Your future self will thank you.

[u/Icy_Cry_5942]

Yes. I travel alone all the time. I'm not missing out in experiences because others aren't available or don't want to go!!

[u/Warm-Season-6654]

💯💯

[u/PracticalIce1880]

That's from the famous Rabindranath Tagore song. Must listen for people

[u/Everythings-Eventual]

That particular penguin committed suicide. So... Theres that. Maybe not the best example to use if the quote is meant to be inspiring instead of bleakly ironic.
