Does anybody here live alone?

I too would hate living in an apartment without anywhere to go during the day. On weekends I might get coffee or snacks just for an excuse to be somewhere else for a bit.

I live alone and go to school as well, it can be rough sometimes. A lot of what you are saying unfortunately sounds pretty familiar to me, doing much of anything is hard and it always feels like it is going to unravel. I try very hard at school and it stresses me out a lot, I am perfectionist yet a terrible procrastinator which is not a peaceful mix. Going to school is such an effort that I don't have much energy for anything else, socially it's as bad as it has ever been. I've been at the end of the line of my social capital for a while and it turns out that I am not happy with the isolation. It's been a long slow process but I don't have any other choice but to keep grinding, I don't have anything else better going on.

^^^here in amuurica, all the high-interest-rate non-wall street investments, have disappeared. you sound like you got something good, a doubling of your money in ten years = [per rule of 72] about 7% effective interest rate.

I've lived alone for years and years. I go out usually just once a week for groceries.

I'm very regimented and disciplined but I'm way to paranoid to ever live alone.

I've lived alone for 20 years now. When I moved from my parent's home, I shared a house with a friend. There were good aspect to this situation and I miss having someone to talk with regularly.

I often think it would be nice to live with someone because I tend to get stuck in routines and I think another person would force me to do something different on occasion. Then again, I like the freedom of being able to do what I want without having to make sure it's ok with another person. If I want to listen to music or watch a movie, no one will complain about my choices. If I want to go to sleep, there is no one making noise or wanting attention.

I guess I want someone close in my life, but I fear losing autonomy and freedom. I've probably stayed alone all this time because it's easier and safer than dealing with another person.

I live alone in a fairly large apartment. I struggle with some things, but it's hard to tell what's related to Aspergers and what's just a consequence of me being a domestically clueless bachelor. Five years down the line, and I seem to be alive, still.
