i've mastered this in sobriety i think. now i'm perfectly content being alone but not lonely. think i was running from myself being the spcial butterfly. my son commented years ago, mom needs her quiet time and space to round out her day. what a wonderful trait i've learned in sobriety- feeling serenity and calm.
