Everywhere is like this and it's better like this than some other places like this. Even though I miss the more quiet town life I grew up in. I really dislike that people think I'm pissed off because I'm quiet. Idk what it is with people in this city but it's possible to just be somewhere and chill. And I think this is an idea for any age of adult. Whether you're young like 18-21 or 60 you can just enjoy things without FOMO. You can just sit in a doctor's office and chill.

But but, I came to this understanding this year. I used to think all of you were desperate for attention and entitled and stuff but I came to this revelation. The sound of silence makes yall uncomfortable. It finally made sense to me. The sound of silence makes yall uncomfortable. I promise you though it's OK. You can just chill most places. Maybe not all places but most. You can just sit at the park or enjoy something

I get this sentiment. People in this area like to talk. They want to interact. I believe there are many people from rural areas that just really appreciate their neighbors. I also been to places where young people and old people don't talk. Here, I think because of the strong family ties, you see more age diverse groups hanging out.

We have places around us where it is just you and trees.

Just my two cents. Everyone perspective is different.

Yea there's nothing wrong with it but it makes me very uncomfortable when random people try to talk to me. Like man I'm just here O_o idk. I stopped going to some places I used to like to just sit and enjoy the atmosphere of because people would talk to me. I get exhausted entertaining people. I know it's crack for extroverts but they draining my mental energy like a vampire. Nothing makes my brain more exhausted than entertaining people. Like 2 hours of that feels like 8 hours of work.
