People That Never Go Out

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
What do you think of people that basically go to work and come home and basically never do anything else?

    Everyone has their own way of life.

    Yeah, why should it bother me? I don't even care if they're happy or not, because it is their choice.

    I generally feel sorry for them because I expect them to feel lonely.

    But it is their choice.

    Hmmm. I kind of one of those people just now. It mostly due to the fact that I've had enough of my old mates and am trying to make new ones. Which is tricky.

    Change "work" with "university" and you'll have described me. I don't see how it's my choice, since it depends on others as much as on myself and I don't like it.

    Each to their own i say. Some people prefer to stay in and some people simply just don't have enough money to go out often.

    Personally, i used to go out clubbing 2 or 3 times a week - but now i prefer to go maybe just once a month because otherwise i get bored of it. :p And sometimes nothing beats a quiet night in with my fella, a movie, take away, and bottle of wine :D

    What if it's not their choice.. like if they suffer from extreme shyness?

    You didn't give that as a scenario, or qualify your original question.

    You staying in does not depend on other people, you can go out on your own you know?

    It's hard to go many places by yourself if you are always alone. It feels like evryone is staring and sees the loneliness, 'tis hard to explain.

    I used to hate going anywhere on my own - wouldn't even walk to the local shop, which is literally 2 minutes walk from my house. But I still wouldn't say that was because I felt lonley, I think I lacked confidence.

    If you do know what it's like, how come you said "it's their choice"? And personally, I do "go out" in the literal sense of the phrase (going for walks) but I can't go anywhere without someone inviting me, cause I'd have no idea what to do.

    I think people who spend their lives worrying about what other people are up to are rather sad. I wouldn't waste a minute of my time thinking about a person who was out alone because to be honest, I don't care... why should I? I think it is rather pathetic to think 'if he's here alone muct be something up with him' and people who think that need to get their own life rather than worrying about what others are up to!

    People don't think that, but the lonely person thinks that they do. If that makes sense.

    I often go out to places on my own, if I waited for my friends to come with me I'd never go anywhere except to the local pub and back and since I barely drink much anyway that would be a complete waste of time and money for me!!!

    I do however also organise events and have my own website to do social stuff in London so if I feel like doing people stuff I send out an email and it goes to over 900+ people and people who want to join in come along. Tomorrow doing a Salsa Dancing event in London and expecting 40 people to be there.

    True of course, but you can't just grab a bunch of people and force them to be your friends, now can you?

    Maybe, I do have an impressive amount of money. But I'm using a big part of it to get a new computer.

    People that never go out? I'm one of these. I have never had any kind of social life. I spend my days alone mostly. It used to be a way of life, but I'm trying to change it. It's such a lonely way.

    Could you please reciprocate your notification in the English tongue? Your effluvium on kerosene is making it a laborious task to ratiocinate your incongruous memorandum. I endeavor to corral the ambience of your incongruous peculiarity.

    Just so that you'd know, if you said that to my face I'd currently be fighting an urge to punch you.
