I started sitting by myself when I was 15 and I deeply regret it. I haven't had a single friend since then and I'm 22 now.
You got to be with people so you don't lose your social skills. It's better to have shitty friends than no friends at all.
Having no friends the last two years of high school really fucked me up socially. I was always kind of shy/autistic, but I was at least somewhat capable of holding a conversation. Due to social isolation, today I have a massive stutter and I find it difficult to even converse with my family, whereas before I had no trouble at all conversing with my family.
this guys fucking spot on. i tried to spend time alone coz i enjoyed it, but as u grow older/mature u realise how sad it is being alone. once u hit 18+, life stops caring for u. no one reaches out for u to b friends anymore like they did in HS. u spend breaks wishing that someone would come sit by u for lunch and talk to u.
