The story

Or maybe I should rephrase it being ‘alone’ yk I might just be saying this bc of my situation like I sit alone at school no friends but yk I have kinda learnt to deal with it and I’m still bothered but it doesn’t make me that sad anymore. Ok so the main thing in jan I posted a video saying ‘I want a movie where they idolised being alone instead of always makimg it seem like a bad thing’ with the caption- where the characters ACTUALLY have no friends and are still happy and surprising it did get a lot of views and comments 😭 but it was controversial in the comments apparently? Like some people were saying ‘cause it is depressing ? 💀’ others were saying like ‘no it’s not. We don’t always need to be with people’ OK LIKE I GET WHY SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE ‘humans need connection’ but just hear me out. Like believe me I HAVE tried making friends like I’ve gone up to a girl abd was like hey and whe low-key looked uncomfortable 😭 still regret doing it and just yesterday I tried again she was AWKWARD like hopefully u get what I’m saying like yes I’m sure that whole human connection thing makes sense but yk some people just don’t have good people in their lives. And BRO FONT GETME STARTED ON MY MOTHER. Like when I told her I have no one in school that I just sat alone she was like why don’t u try? like that’s not normal! We need people u need to change your mindset! But u see the thing is like bro I have kinda changed my mindset to not needing people bro if I badly wanted people till now my mental health will have become so bad🙏 like I kinda hope u understand my perseptive of wanting a movie like this? Like a character who has no friends and still is happy yk their entire life is based around others. I don’t wnat advice on making friends IVE TRIED I want to be truly happy alone

Absolutely right!!! People always assume being alone means you're sad or depressed; no one talks about the empowerment of self-sufficiency and enjoying your own company! I totally vibe with the idea of idolizing solitude :) Sometimes, being solo lets you know yourself better and engage with your passions without distractions; I remember ditching the popular crowd in high school and feeling more at peace with just my interests for company... People don't get that it's about quality over quantity when it comes to relationships, and not everyone you meet will vibe with your energy... Be your own biggest fan and you'll be unstoppable!!!

Your perspective on valuing solitude is truly eye-opening. 😊 While many people find fulfillment in connections, it's important to recognize that happiness can also be found in being alone. As Oscar Wilde once said, "I think it’s very healthy to spend time alone. You need to know how to be alone and not defined by another person." Sometimes, just chillin' with yourself is all you really need. 🙌 However, it's also true that humans are social creatures by nature. Balancing both solitude and social interaction can lead to a well-rounded and fulfilling life. 🌟
