I have never, ever been the one who was outgoing, or really talked to anyone. It really used to bother me, but I've come to see it as a blessing more than anything. Here's why.
You know the people who put forth the effort into getting to know you are worth it
GiphyIt just goes to show that those who want to get to know you, really want to get to know you. Because they want to, not out of obligation.
You don't have all the drama
GiphyNo drama? No problem. When you don't talk to a lot of people, you don't have all the issues that come with having a lot of friends, and a lot of drama.
People don't use you
GiphyI have seen so many friendships go down the drain because one of the members was just tired of being used and was done putting forth the effort.
No obligation to make plans with people
GiphyI don't know about you all, but my favorite activity is being in bed, in sweats, watching some Netflix. No friends = always doing just that.
Not being the center of gossip
GiphyNothing beats not being talked about, true or false, and not being friends with many people means that nobody has a reason to talk about you.
You can people watch in peace and quiet
GiphyI love people watching. Are they going to work? Did they just get dumped? I don't know, but my imagination goes wild when I'm sitting alone and a person passes by.
