I lived by myself during my twenties but didn't like it at all. The house was always empty.

My friend and I were out at the bars one night, doing the usual young people thing. They had been acting off a little all night, and when I asked if they were okay, they told me everything was fine. I knew this wasn't true since I had known this person for years, but the night came to a close and we got a cab home.

Well, I'm glad it worked out well in the end. I on the other hand didn't have friends waiting for me home and felt kind of empty.

I'm sorry you felt that way. Is it any better now?
