Interesting… I used to be a city boy, lived my whole life into my 30’s there. But after 2020 I went cave mode, and now I live a bit off the beat but in another country. I believe a big part of my recon might stem from that I lost almost all social activity over the last 3-4 years, all my own friends bar maybe one I have left but in my old home country. The people I hang out with are not really close friends but just acquaintances and most are a lot older than me because not many young people live out here.
But it has been taxing not having a social circle for a couple of years now, even though during this time I dabbed deep into meditation and a lot of lone time… but also as I’m naturally an introvert… maybe I took it a bit too far lol.
