I dunno, I think I've become such a hermit that I don't mind being by myself or have the feeling of being left out. I've never had many friends in life anyway.

But then, I know if I need company, I can always drop by my siblings. And there are acquaintances who live nearby that I can call up. I'd rather have the ball in my court so I can manage my life better. But I get it, not everyone prefers it that way
