Post Lockdown World is a very different place


Perhaps it is being a singleton at my age. Perhaps it is more a part of the dis connected world we were living in anyway... pre-Lockdown. Perhaps it is a direct side-effect of the 18 months of Lockdow and its full-frontal assault on the social world. My friendships are even more tenuous, my social life has dwindled to the point of nothing. I am sure this cannot just be myself that is experiencing this.
I sometimes look at myself and wonder if this solitary situation is something I have done (either unconciously or by accident). But when I do look and doubt myself and blame myself I realise I'm not someone who is "out there" on booze or drugsas I barely drink and don't do drugs. I work (f/t in Education). Been with my current employer for over 20 years. Never ill/ off work. Have a great bunch of colleagues I work with. I have hobbies and interests which are mostly solo but I am a member of a few local clubs (closed for Lockdown). I don't have any mental health issues and I keep myself fit and active.
Weeks and months go by with thoughts of a social life or meeting someone retreating farther and farther over the horizon. Is this just me and the age and gender I am? Thoughts please - comments will be kept private.
